Madhouse, are you figuring 8-9 hp from the exhaust, 11-12 rwt?
Man, I really don't know what the exhaust is good for, if anything. Unfortunately I didn't get a baseline dyno before putting on the mufflers.

My baseline on a Dynojet today was 262.5 max hp & 281 max torque, maybe you can keep these numbers to work with, they should be very close to what you started with.

Great video but... you didn't reach the 300 HP because the engine is practically new or that's the max power of your car?

*sigh* Those numbers are measured at the rear wheels. Divide that number by .85 and you'll get the approximation at the flywheel.

600 miles on the odometer...
very impressive stuff. your car sounded great when they really got on it, the exhaust is nishe. it was really good meeting you on saturday too, fun stuff. hopefully we'll see you around again whenever another houston meet rolls around.

"Gathering", shoot we need to just form a club of our own...I can't see why it wouldn't work....even if it was just 7 or 8 of us for now it would be fine.,...Bryan could probably easily drum up a simple website for us and we'd be going.......maybe have a cruise once a month and the webspace to talk amongst eachoter...There will be plenty more '05 people looking for a home soon and the Houston S197 Mustang Club could be waiting for them! The Cobra owners have their own clubs seperate from the regualr Mustang Club so why shouldn't we? Let me hear some feedback from you guys......

Sounds good, I'm already on every dammed board in the world anyway...

Seriously though, the technical info sharing alone would make it worth it!

And group buys for parts...

Man, sounds promising!!

i'd be down with it. maybe we can all get together again to work something out. i also do webdesign so if that's what bryan does we can probably knock something out.

by the way madhouse, thanks for the URL.

i appreciate it.

I am already working on a web site for mustang owners, much lke cardomain.com but with more power. I want a better way to showcase my car (and others). heck, for as many portals as I have setup, all I need are volunteers to maintian the forums, support system, news, etc. If you want to see one of my customers, goto Gamehelper.com. Be gentle, they are all volunteers and still just a start-up looking for funding.

I would also be up for a local club of stang owners, and could even host our site for it. Local being south Texas since we are all spead over 50 miles or so. But what is 50 miles in a Stang, :P

heck, maybe there is a good sales person that can work group buys for us I know that we can probably get a grouyp discount to a few at the moment

Sounds good.....the local s197 club and website sound like they are a reailty with a little effort then ...keep me posted Bryan...any help I can give is yours as I work from home....Maybe I'll get some knowledge from you on website creation/maintenance in the process....Be nice to be the O.G.'s of the club instead of joining one where a group is already in place that runs everything and you can do li8ttle to make changes to it...Always better to start from the ground up.....If we can get this drag strip meet up planned out in Mid-January or so it would be a great opportunity for the 4 of us to bang heads and put pen to paper on what we'd like to see and who can best help in certain areas.....gonna be awesome guys..already looking forward to being associated with such a great group...
