The one thing that I did notice is that the Boost Controller does help the turbo spool faster.

When I dialed the BC up from 7 psi to 10 psi, there is more boost at any given RPM if you overlay the graphs.

Not much... but I'd be willing to bet that without a BC, boost would be less at any given RPM.

It looks like I'll be getting the car dyno'd again on April 5th on a Dyno Jet.

Will be interesting to see if they are higher compared to the Flow Jet numbers. Since I constantly hear that Flow Jet numbers run low...

Is this a Mustang Dyno Jet or just a Dyno Jet? I hear the Mustang specific Dyno Jet's are very low in there output.

The graph on page 1 is a Superflow Jet. The one I like to get the car dyno'd on is a Dyno Jet (not a Mustang Dyno). This is the one I have the '89 dyno'd on if you click on the link in my signature for that car's dyno chart.

OK cool I was going to suggest stay away from the Mustang Dyno

Thanks! I'm glad it's finally all figured out. In the back of my mind I knew it had to be something simple the entire time.

Me backing down the boost to about 8psi so it's a little safer for the street!

(after the Dyno Jet pulls, of course)

Congrats on finally getting it dialed in!

At 8 psi, I think I'll be able to take you (umm.. after my Vortech gets installed).
