The Ford guys signed it I do believe.

Better shoot some clear over those signatures if you want them to last very long.

My understanding is that the mustang dyno can be set to record data like a dynojet so they probably did it that way because everyone likes the bigger numbers better.

in order from left to right, Dave Pericak (Mustang Chief Engineer), Ralph Arning (Mustang Program Manager) Dean Martin (Koni Challnge Champion 2009 GS, Operations manager Rehagen Racing).

Missing signatures: Dan Millen (owner Livernois Motorsports, former NMRA Champion, he is tuning the car) Vaughn Gitten Jr. (Pro drifter, Owner RTR enterprises, hooked me up with my wheels).


I will then have the bar clear coated.

375 sounds just right for a 412#. What gear was the car in?

Yup Evo has the word's highest reading Mustang Dyno. There is a reason why they never answered the question about the roller weight on their dyno. It can be changed to fudge numbers.

You would think they'd want to report repeatable honest numbers. Everyone knows a Mustang Dyno reads lower if configured properly. Why mislead people?

Nope seems right, a 15% internet correction factor is just what it is; BS. The drivetrain probably only absorbs around 35-40hp.

I'd probably guess closer to 50 at that power level (based on some engine vs chassis dyno data), but I do agree about the internet correction factor BS.

it makes 375 at the tires on a dyno jet just like others. forget evo's numbers, imo they are loaded light. delk performance in nashville does the same crap. a mustang dyno they manipulate.

Is that stock exhaust or did Rehagen Racing throw on some aftermarket exhaust?

He did somewhere, IIRC it was shocks/struts, panhard bar, springs, camber kit. Typical suspension swap out parts.

Stock still IIRC. Rehagen just did the suspension.

car looks much better lowered, especially the rear where the wheels looked like they were sticking out too much
