Default Dyno'd today...great numbers!!

I had my 06 mn6 coupe dyno today and I am impressed.

Lg 1 3/4, halltech intake, bullets, and ported t/b.....409hp and 390ft lbs......ON A MUSTANG DYNO...

From what I have read, these numbers seem to be really good, any thoughts???...The car feels great and I can't wait to add more.

Nice gains. Guess the ported TB adds some nice gains.

It's my understanding ported TB's don't add HP, just aid in part throttle response.

Wow...Your numbers look great to me. I was surprised becasue it seemed like guys with similar mods were getting like 385 or on mustang dynos. I am very happy to break the 400 mark with just the mods I have now.

I would take it with a grain of salt.

Go run easy 11s with it at near 120mph and then I'll believe those numbers

Thats fine, guys around here sure have a funny way of showing support for each other. I have seen more than one ls2 with these kind of numbers on the forum. It just may be that a tuner that people in California don't know about that works out of New Haven is actually really good, and just because they aren't all over the forum doesn't meen that they can't make some of the best numbers. Its cool though

Seriously though, its like a different car than the one I bought so I am happy. Hope all you nay sayers have fun with your cars too

Where in New Haven did you get tuned? Pruven? I drive there every now and again

Regarding the numbers... Sounds a bit too high, but here is mine with:

Kooks 1 3/4" Headers, catted X-Pipe
GHL Catback
VaraRam CAI
Tune

Not at all. $450 for the tune, including free liftime retunes. $200 for the throttle body and install(would have done it myself but decided to do it at the last minute). Seemed good to me.

No not pruven, Mongillo Motors...honestly I am very happy with them, the service and performance. They have no reason to inflate the number to me. Our numbers look very close.

With regard to the people smashing me for believing it, whos to say that my shop isn't the best tuner in the area??? Just because they are not on this forum they can't be. Come on guys.

I will post the sheet once I can figure out how..I'm not great with that stuff

Default Good numbers had'nt seen them in some time

Yes, your numbers are very good and you still dont have a ported fast.
Usually the FAST will get you at least 20/20 thats what I have on mine
and I got 412/408 as a bolton prior to the CAM & UD PULLEY. There will be NA sayers no matter what you do especially when you come in over 400 with boltons. Congratulations on making 409 RWHP and enjoy your new animal. Leon

Thanks man, I appreciate it!!!! Yeah, my tuner said the same thing to me today. He says he was really surprised an the numbrs and the curve and how little timing he threw at it to get the numbers.

Get notified of new replies

To Dyno'd today...great numbers!!

Well I was looking for where he got the higher than normal numbers! Not bad for a Ls2. Although I am skeptical.

Why, the numbers should be higher on the dyno jet, and my tuner offered to pay for me to make a pull anywhere I want to if I think the numbers are off???????????????????? I can't believe how pissy a bunch of gear head guys can get..its like trying to socialize with a bunch of women
