I took a video of my car on the dyno this morning. It took me 30 minutes to drive to Woodbine Motorsports where JJ installed a bung in the exhaust. Then we drove another 30 minutes up to Adrenaline Automotive in Frederick, MD to use their Dynojet. This car was hot off the street. The only cool down was the 15 minutes or so to get the car on the dyno and prepped.

I first run with the stock Ford tune was 460RWHP/415RWTRQ
The second run with the Evo "Lund" Tune was 473RWHP/449RWTQ
The temp at the time of the run was 80 degrees.

The car is back at JJ's shop getting a VMP 2.6 stock look pulley, VMP Stock look coolant tank upgrade, Afco Dual Fan Heat Exchanger, and new plugs. We are then going to take it up to Adrenaline and run it the same way hot off the street. Sure we could have let it cool down. I wanted more realistic results of what to expect when the car is warm. JJ figures we probably could add another 15HP to each if the car was cooler.

The video here is of the second run.

I have the STD and SAE graphs in my car. I'll scan and post them when I get the car back after the upgrades.

JJ is making a big push into the Mustang scene as he is one of the top Lightning Tuners. He has a new 5.0 on the way and has tuned many GTs and GT500s.

 

Looks and sounds awesome!

 

Nice! I love seeing 'real world' tests. Thanks for sharing!

 

Yep. Was hoping I wasn't going to see any "OmFg D0)D YeR #S aRe LoW!!! INsSDidelINe Got 511!!"

 

Yeah same here. I'm sure I could have cooked the numbers by letting the car get cold before the runs. I wanted to know what kind of power I had if a Camaro or whatever pulls up next to me on the street. I don't know anyone who rides around in a cold car. lol

 

Thanks for allowing me to work on and tune your beautiful GT500. Your real world results are to be admired.

JJ

 

No problem you did a great job. I'm going to start a new thread with the results of your work.
