Just got my car dynoed using Mustang Dyno which tends to be a bit lower than Dynojet. Here is the result:

1st run: 289.8 HP/313.9 lb-ft

2nd run: 289.2 HP/297.4 lb-ft

3rd run: 288.9 HP/301.2 lb-ft

I think the torque is lower in the last two runs because the engine is getting hot. The graph represents one of the runs, not the best one.

Overall, I'm pleased with the result. Now it's time for additional mods. May be RPI scoop, RPI exhaust/ECU remap or Dinan altogether. Any suggestions?

That's got to be one of the craziest looking dyno's I've ever seen.. Not to mention that mathematically, torque and HP are supposed to cross at 5252 RPM.. ?

Remember, they'll only cross at 5252 if the scale of the hp and torque is the same.

If you got $ to spend, you can never go wrong with the Dinan stuff
