Talking 5.0 Dyno Results: JLT Cold Air, Lethal O/R X, Bassani Axle Back, Lund Ghost Cams Tune





425 rwhp / 427 rwtq


I went to a dyno day today, and got a somewhat baseline run in.

For minimal mods, these are pretty impressive numbers in comparison to my Kenne Bell '05 which was at 424/417 at 8 psi on it's initial tune.

I know, different dynos, different days, etc...

I owe it all to this tune! Jon Lund knocked this one out of the park! Crisp at any throttle position, loads of torque, smooth cruising, excellent gas mileage, choppy idle, it slices - it dices!

These are what I would consider to be a great base for performance mods. For those of us looking for a nice power increase to hold us over until we go FI, or for those that are content staying at these power levels! The car is great while stock, but now it's a completely different animal!

It's adaptive octane. So it will work on 91-93 octane. I confirmed this with Jon Lund.

I only get 91 octane out here in CA, so the numbers may have been a tad higher if I had 93.

That is sweet. What is a ghost cam tune? Is it a tune that makes the car sound like it has cams?

What are you guys getting for MPG w/ the 5.0 manuals?

Thank you for the great products! First thing people notice is the carbon fiber intake when I pop the hood!

Can't say. I didn't get a stock baseline, but I think it would have been higher than 350rwhp. I have a manual 6 speed.

The reason I say that is most people dyno about 350 to the wheels plus or minus 10 rwhp. From what I've seen on TMS anyway.

If correct, this would be the first I have read that a tuner can use/apply the adaptive spark ignition system that was first offered by Ford on the 08 Bullitts and carried forward. And I've been watching threads for it.

Exactly. I wonder if the other tuners can do the same. I run 93 and I get worried sometimes that I might get bad gas or gas that is not 93 as advertised.

Go ahead and contact him. I'm sure he'd be happy to hear you have been waiting to see this happen within the tuning of our cars. He's been amazing to deal with, and is certainly a pioneer of sorts.
