"Pineapple Express" - Build Thread
why is it so hard to believe? my car is almost the same build . main difference is i have 3071 turbos and he has 100 cc bigger injectors. i have seen 650 rwhp on 14 psi. not a huge difference
I wasn't saying it's hard to believe but we know all dynos are created aka set up different, not sure why everyone get's all defensive instantly. Why not go compare to another mustang dyno, I think we all know a dynojet will show a higher number.
I'm looking forward to seeing this car doing some 1/4 runs, and seeing it locally.

Not sure what hurts but that's cute let's compare. Glad you guys do this I think most should for sake of "argument"

Personally I am not defensive. We have made a appointment Thursday for dynojet rental. We have absolutely no reason to go on another mustang dyno. When they are calibrated by the manufacturer they all read the same despite the model as long as wheel spin doesn't exist. We know ours reads lower than sevaral other mustang dynos from past experiences with other local customers. And that ours reads identical to oem calibrated mustangs as there are 2 other shops within 20 miles that give the exact same numbers. The dynojet seems to be the end all be all as far as numbers are concerned. So that's what were going to use.
cool thanks for doing that, curious to see numbers 

I think it originates from most the cars we build end up making more than others do on the same/similar setups. It's the control over every aspect that allows more power per lb of boost that is hard for most to grasp.

Dynojets are the industry standard and are much harder to manipulate than all the others.
I'll take a ride to see this thing on a DynoJet on Thursday night, they are going to the same one where your old black car made 515whp with Alpha30s lol.

Number glorification aside, the real story here is the delta from my initial run on the same dyno with an exhaust & flash (+~235WHP)...that and an awesome delivery curve.
Anyway you slice it, the car will be fun. This is the internet, so you need HP as the foot in the door...right or wrong its the #1 data-point people use to compare. Mustang + DJ results should open some eyes to what's possible without going all in on big turbos
I'm excited to start logging some more "real-world" results, attending race events, and again proving I have a monster on my hands!
