    On a different note, when are you headed back home Funf? I finally started doing some prep on my car and I'd like to look at yours again for reference - that is if you don't mind :)

    Also all dep on the type of dyno used. Mustang is great for tuning but is usually a heart breaker for #s where as a dynojet is what most consider the standard for hp #s
    ^This.

    I won't be back till early June.

    Switch the respective specs and you've got it right :) Love having more torque than power.


    Stock heads and headers are really holding me back...

    And the dyno sheet:








    Lastly I want to give a big shout out to OSTDyno in the Pittsburgh area. They tuned the car quickly and so well, it feels completely different and 10x better. Even fed me! Haha. But seriously, check them out if you ever need dyno or email tunes, they're the real deal. Just check out the Testimonial and Customer Cars section on their website!
