How much Power HP/TQ will TacoBill's car make ?
After many months and tons of frustration that would make any normal person go completely insane, TacoBill will finally take his Vortech, Forged Mustang out for a Dyno tune.

For the hell of it and because it's Tom281's idea....

How much power do you think TacoBill will be laying down ??

my vote is.....

435rwhp/429rwtq

Vortech...probably 455HP/455TQ at the wheels.
If the dyno is a Mustang Dyno, figure 5 less on both numbers.

I tried but I wasn't sure what to put in the poll you can only do 10 items so how detailed should it be ?

'cause if there is a way or a good idea, then I'll do it.


Oh..I think the RET dyno is a dynojet

He better turn up the boost, with forged internals. Don't babysit that block.

I hope he goes higher than 450rwhp with a forged block. But don't know his intentions...

dont know how hard he's going to push it, but 500/500 should be pretty easily attainable

Since I'm pretty sure he's going with the stock pulley and non intercooled I'm going to guess 420RWHP/400RWTQ. Should he go higher? HELL YEAH.

Bill-If your reading this go with the 3.31 pulley. I believe that's about 11-12PSI.

Man this thread took off........ lots of interest! Good luck Bill........ don't blow it up.



426/386 is my guess, assuming a 3.8 or maybe 3.6 pulley.

Dyno appt is this morning, will update this thread with results.

Assuming it doesn't blow up, I'm guessing around Tom's and Superfly's predictions.

Keep in mind, my kit is non-cooled with the stock pulley.
