Got my car Dyno Tuned this weekend... Videos!
So after much anticipation of what this thing would put down, I finally got a chance to get it on the Dyno and I'm pretty happy with the results. How's 406 RWHP / 382 torque on a Mustang Dyno sound... Not too bad. These were the uncorrected numbers, weather corrected was 383/361. Stock bottom end revved to 6500 RPM's and it loved every second of it. Topped out around 116 mph in 4th with 4.11 gears. Made quite a few pulls so my brother could finish tuning it, including some 1/4 mile runs. Just need to get a copy of my dyno sheet now.
Stock 2002 LS1 shortblock, Stage 2 T56, LS6 intake, 243 heads, 230/238 600 lift cam, Long Tubes, Strange S60 with 4.11 gears.

Some reason it won't play on my iPad. What were the 1/4 results?

Re: Got my car Dyno Tuned this weekend
1/4 mile could have been better. I think it was mid 12's at around 116 mph with junk tires.
Thanks man!

Re: Got my car Dyno Tuned this weekend
The car runs out of gear in 4th just before the 1/4 is up, spins way too much off the line, but it is fun as hell. I'll be getting some taller sticky tires over the winter. I can tell you that I need a lot more seat time for launching this thing. I'm way too used to the old 225 rwhp 305/auto and just crushing the gas off the line... not with this!
Here is a 1/4 mile simulation with my brother driving. He also tuned it for me, he's real good at it.

Re: Got my car Dyno Tuned this weekend
We really put it to the test, and it never skipped a beat! Made about 5 runs in the 1/4, and probably 8 or 9 dyno pulls. A couple of the dyno runs he timed, 60 mph to around 115 mph, trying different timing settings. I think the best was like 7.1 seconds just leaving it in 4th gear until it hit the rev limiter.

strong numbers, good work.
i don't think i could punish the car like that on the dyno, the whole time i was watching the video i kept waiting for it to come loose

Thanks for the compliments.
Nah, those straps are race proven... haha. Honestly I was a little nervous at first, but after like the third time you stop worrying so much because it's just so cool to see. Only thing I did was make sure to get away from the rear tires in case one blew...
