2008 Mustang Dyno after a Dyno tune

[gtncpa]

Well the numbers are in and a video is to follow:
SAE #'s
344 HP
330 Torque

Naturally the STD numbers were higher and HP was over 355. But STD numbers mean zip.




Since I spend most of my time on the track between 3,500 and 5,500 ... I could not be any happier. I think I picked the right cams, lt's ect for my car .. but I probably wont win many drag races.

My car sounds great! I had to get use to her. But under hard acceleration ... WOW!!!! And while cruising ... she is no louder than she was before .. maybe even less drown at 55 MPH. Now lets hope I dont set off the db meter at Lime Rock

All I can say is Pocono baby in July!!!! Wait til they get a load of me!!!!

LOL Well you have been there ... and know how steep turn one is. It feels very strange. It is probably the same banking as typical roof on a house! I remember my first time on Pocono. My instructor was yelling "don't lift don't lift" It takes a huge set of coglionis (balls) to stay on the accelerator in turn one. But .. it can be done!

I am not sure what configuration we are running. Here is the email from NASA/PDA

additional Safer Barriers on the inside of the track are being added. These barriers cannot be moved until after the NASCAR race in August. As a result of this change the South and East course infields are not usable for our event. Therefore the "Double Infield Course" is out. The North Course and the straightaways are not affected other than at the exit of the North Course infield which has an additional bump that was not there before. As a result of this problem, we will be using the "North Course" and "Single Infield Long Course" for the weekend. The long course will be run clockwise and counter clock-wise to add variety. The track management has apologized for the inconvenience but had no option but to conform to the NASCAR requirements.

So I looked at the different track configs and still don't know. My favorite config is "double infield" Basically you run the track backwards and don't use turn one and three. You run thru the infield turning at the Sunoco signs.

Ur welcome but I get my rocks off in 5 weeks at Texas Motor Speedway behind an 800hp Sprint Cup Car.

Sounds good. I did the NASCAR experience at Pocono several years ago. 20 miles on track following an instructor. Before that they take you out in a cup car with a passenger seat. The instructor shows you the line. It was fun .. but the tri oval gets very boring. When you pit they hit your tac and from that they can tell your top speed. I think mine was 165. But on the tri oval .. after 3 laps you loose the sensation of speed. There is no real braking and shifting is only done coming out of the pit and going in.





Is it a Nascar experience you are doing?

Nice numbers and pics... I did Pocono too.

I didn't get tired of the oval.

[GT800]

It's been a long time since i did pocono. i did it in a friend's formula vee. i thoughtthe north course nascar 1, nascar 2, right after that was devil's elbow into the infield. snake through that and come out on to the main straight right before the pits. when i ran it they didn't used the chicane after nascar 1. hell the chicane wasn't paved yet.
