Great numbers! Nice flat curve and no drop off.
FWIW the lights mean nothing. The Speedo will recover in the 2nd or third run but the lights are suppose to come on. It hurts nothing and clears when you drive out. Try it next time. I have only run a few hundred this way

Very cool that the dyno guy is a 6speeder with a 996TT.

Guys like Kevin should be commended. He goes out on his personal time and money, runs his car at the track, downloads timeslips, runs his car on GPS, downloads the data, runs his car on the dyno, posts the data. All so we can gain knowledge about what these cars are capable of when properly modified. Hats off to you my friend, you're a true gentlemen. Congratulations!

Kevin,
Are you ready for this?
I just inputted your trap speed and weight into my buddy's Trap Speed to WHP calculator for a comparison, and look what I came up with (I assumed 3,600 lbs with driver for your car). Within 1 hp of your Mustang dyno numbers.
whp = wt. x (trap/234)^3/(1.057-(A/100,000)^3
Variable A: (128.2/234) cubed, x 3,600 lbs = 591.48
Variable B: (1.057-[591.48/100,000]) cubed = 1.1612
Var A (591.48/ Var B (1.1612) = 509 whp
