That's a respectable time for the amount of mods you have. Its definitely running well and with more practice you should be able to get down a little. But congrats on your first time at the 1/4 mile, i bet you were shaking the first time you pulled up to that line!!!

Nice progress man!

The dyno in Gboro is the one I go to! Thats where i made 301whp.


Your #'s are different because people mess with the dyno info to make customers happy. When you dyno your car make sure to get runfiles so you can inspect air temp and other stuff.

Mustang dynos are load based and SHOULD read lower then a dynojet. if you make more power on a mustang then a dj then id be very concerned..


If you are interested in testing out some parts lmk.

thanks man. and yeah idk. bobby up at cin had the wcf on the mustang dyno set very very low. so basically it wasnt really correcting it much for the temp outside. idk much about all that but basically he saying that he didnt do much if anything that would make the #s higher.

however i have changed exhausts since the 292/264 pull. still a 3" single but the momentum vs the megan racing single theres a little spot in the piping that is flat on the megan, and on the momentum its not flat so maybe a little more airflow that needs to be tweaked on the dyno. i still dont see that losing 7whp and 5ft-lbs of tq. but idc really. and was that your maxima thats on the white board at niced up?

yep i always always always run v-power in my car. once in a blue moon i pull through sheetz since its on the way to my house.

and yeah i thought it said 305whp on the maxima? he was talkin about how your car impressed him a lot. lol. he also said that most people that come from mustang dynos make less on his dynojet for whatever reason

btw, you still work at autozone? everytime i pass by i never see the maxima

yeah one run was 305 but i use the 301 cuz its a cleaner run. I guess i could say 305 whp if i wanted to lolol.


it must be the mustang dyno correcting the numbers in a way.


yeah im not there a lot, I do my business full time.
