Got my car retuned today after a couple upgrades, but hard to say how much I’ve actually gained. The car was always tuned on a Mustang Dyno, today it was done on DynoJet. Shop owner told me beforehand his dyno is a heartbreaker, people get higher numbers everywhere else. Gonna do this as a list, so it’s easier to follow (discussion after):
Mustang dyno:
1. When i first installed the Kenne Bell on stock block 476whp/412tq
2. Built a lower compression engine, added 2lbs of boost 469whp/410tq
DynoJet (today):
1. Base run 413whp/391tq (holy shit that’s bad, I thought to myself)
2. Added 130mm TB and replaced MAF with Cobra housing and sensor 455whp/419tq
3. Tuner tweaked it a bit 463whp/421tq
4. Last run, was beyond heat soaked at this point so we called it a day
Now, when i street tested it, it’s faster. Like quite a bit faster! Even heat soaked. So, I can’t complain, but I have questions. I understand that the dyno is simply a tool to see gains through upgrades and down tune things, but is there a way to compare the Mustang Dyno and DynoJet? Like 500hp on Mustang is equal to XXXhp on DynoJet?
In my head, I see the 56whp difference between dynos, and think I can add that to my old number to get what the Mustang Dyno would read today. So 463+56=519whp in my universe LOL.
Ass-dyno is all I really care about, and it’s good, but this seems like a fun discussion for the “smart” dudes in here
