Nice #'s Gabe! But did your numbers go down? I thought you were cresting 590/600 whp before, from JDM?

My JDM tune put me at 591/505 with the current pulley/mods.
But after a while I lost power, only change was a larger H-pipe and the Lethal Perf over-axle pipes.
Went to 541/478 on the same dyno, which some people (including me) think it reads a bit high, especially torque.
So today's numbers gained me about 20 rwhp with no other changes other than the boost-a-pump, which is more of a safety net than anything, certainly not a power-booster, not at this level, yet.
Smaller pulley coming up, since I'm only boosting about 7-8 psi now

I see...

but why did you "lose" power from the JDM tune? Because of the tune itself or the stuff you added to it?

Very nice Gabe.
How much smaller of a pulley are going if you currently have a 3.25 on there now?

Thanks T.
I'd be going with the next smaller size, the 3.125"
Should add 1-2psi, 20-30 hp

I attended a show the other day, top down and hood up, in the middle of the most extreme pollen day so far this year.

Here's the end product after a complete rinse-less detail session.

Was great meeting both of you! I need to make it up here more often, even if just for the ribs! Rackshack FTW!

Mark your car is a classic. Love that body style. Nathan your car is unreal. Both are gorgeous in person. I have a renewed appreciation for the Roush splitters, those wheels, and you reminded me why I loved the Borla S Types prior to my Corsas.

Hopefully I can make it up here again (or you guys down to Iowa) so you can meet Marilyn in person

Pretty sure it was an '11. Black w/red stripes, silver accent striping on the outside of the red.

And he traded it for a Jeep.

Yeah I couldn't get myself to do that. But he has a good reason prolly.

Haha yes I love our Q. Quincy was a perfect companion on the drive. But yeah I had no choice, man. . 4.5 hour drive and I had to haul wife's and kids luggages, toys, plus stuff we bought at the mall and IKEA. If you can find a way to fit that in a/any mustang, you are God. Lol. Oh, don't forget the 2 plug ins for their iPad and Kindle, then the integrated bluray players in the backrest for their movies.

Sorry, but for this trip, Quincy outshone Marilyn. As much as it pained me.

Yup I'm down to meeting people. It was cool meeting up with Burton and Nathan. Need to see Tony's sweet machine some day.
Who's next

Today I drove my MUSTANG over to the Rack Shack for some BBQ. This place has been sitting in my area and I never went there, until Burton from Iowa comes to Minnesota and tells me about it.
