Dyno day upcoming - any guesses?
Hi members! I'm taking my 1999 M6 FRC to the dyno in 8 days. Two reasons for my visit, the first is I'd like to get a baseline for power. I purchased this car exactly one year ago and have enjoyed it, and am curious how much power it has before I start to mod the motor. Second, I have been learning HPTuners over the winter, and am curious as to what effect my novice tuning skills have had on the car. When I got the car, the ECM tune was the stock one, and smelled rich, so it was never optimized for headers.
The dyno will be a AWD Mustang Dyno @ 100' above sea level.
Engine Mods to the car:
Stock '99 LS1
C6Z air box and MAF
LG LT Street headers, X-pipe, and Z06 Ti exhaust
LS7 Clutch and Flywheel
Fresh LS6 valve springs
LS6 valley cover
secondary AIR system delete
Novice Tune
My personal guess is 330-345.

345-350, my friend has mods on an 03 M6, LG streets, hall tech air intake, xpipe, catback, tuned, and made 355, yours being a 99, 345-350, novice tune, we shall see.

Right on the money! This Mustang Dyno was related to Uncle Scrooge lol.
318hp/347Tq.
My novice tune was +6 HP better than the stock tune, and that's what I was most interested in.
Most importantly, I now have a baseline on this dyno, and one I will come back to once my next set of mods are installed for a nice fair shake down.

Mustang dyno calibration can be tweaked to look like a dynojet. I believe it adds on the order of 10-12%
I ran a dyno dynamics for about 5 years. Many of our customers headed straight to a dynojet after our work and then were happy. It was 13-14% lower than a Dynojet.
Id say Rob’s car was very well set up to take advantage of that 420 rwhp!
Nice job OP, enjoy
