Not the best quality

277HP 350TQ

Was blowing out black smoke and AFR was in the 10s, I kept cranking up the boost to try to lean it out but never was able to. Needs a tune bad but not bad starting numbers.

mustang dynos usually exagerate things, but id day ur pretty close to that. not bad stock. what are they rated like 340 right. if thats the case then id say based on 20% drivetrain loss(which is conservative for rwd) but since u were practically brand new, prolly closer to 290 at the wheels. like i said, still not bad

My car was rated 325hp factory. From what I know its usually the dynojets that have the "not so realworld" rating and the Mustang dyno is "realworld" There were quite a few other LS1 fbodies there that day and some were running in the 290's to low 300's. The rating given is corrected, as well. A stock LS1 will avg 380fhp on an engine dyno.

I was making the same hp with my stock setup as a few others that day with aftermarket exhaust and hiflow airlids...so,I'm sticking with 333hp. :cheers:

i didnt say u were wrong, just giving what ive heard about mustang dynos. So its safe to say then that the ls1 in the ceta is underrated?? as are most gm v8's

Salgood, ya know. Yeah, GM underated the LS1 in anything that wasn't a Corvette. They didn't want to advertise a lower priced vehicle as having the same power as their flagship vehicle. ahah.

What the shit is up with the torque numbers?!!?

Ya know...I never got an answer from the tech as why the Torque number showed that on the one printout. Just that it was correct on the other sheet.

There are ways that dynos figure torque... I know that the 'uncorrected' number showed that my car had something like 1200 lbs of torque... Mike Haddad tried explaining it to me, but I really didnt care.

That's respectable for little more than 1/3 of my motor, less a decade of technology...
