Went to West Bend Dyno Tuning last night and did some baseline runs on thier Mustang Dyno.
Got 147.4 HP @ 6135 rpm
and 136.3 tq @ 5237 rpm
I dont know how accurate the rpm values are since he was having trouble getting it to read correctly.
The power curve started to get flat around 6000rpm...
I may save the dyno tuning for a later date when I can dial in timing, afrs, and cam position. Right now I dont have any cam gears and thinking about getting a J&S safeguard so I can safely run the most timing possible.
Just want to get some numbers for you guys for right now.
Oh and I got a...
Look like ther is a mustang dyno 30 min from my house 3 pulls for 70 bucks.
Or i could drive to Milwukee or Madison (90 min) and pay more ~$100 for a dynojet or dynodynamics
From my understanding dynojets and dyno dynamics give similar (higher) numbers and a mustang dyno is more stingy...
Just spent 3.5 hours tuning with Steve. I'm very happy with how the car is running. There are still some minor tweaks to make it a little better but theres always room for improvement.
The car feels quite strong and VE is holding up nicely at high rpm, which means im still making power! Only...
I would have considered sr20 rods and forged pistons if I had found out about it eariler!
I'll save that for the next time I tear down the motor.

You guys are giving me more reasons to open up my motor again in a few years....
EDIT: Maybe I should just move over there so I can share the inside information. Any chemical engineering positions open locally??
went to take the P5 out for a short drive this morning at it was running very lean. The only difference in conditions was the air temp (60F compared to 80F) I didnt have the laptop with me so i didnt have a chance to try and adjust anything. Also I did disconect the power to the MT since I had...
Car is back together and running on the MT but I have not done much work with the tune as of yet. I have tenatively planned on getting together with Turfburn from NSN the weekend of June 21st to work on the tune.
If all goes well my plan very soon after that is to get the car on a dyno, and...
I as well will try to add a little timing, as well as back out the bypass air controll screw even furthur.... then ill start adding fuel until she calms down.
I took the car for a quick trip around the block yesterday and I seem to be running slightly rich. If i can get the idle stabilized ill...
