Dyno day today -- did 3 pulls

[Blu_Redline]

Pic is attached of the sheet. I went over the graph lines as they were very thin and hard to see. I don't have a color scanner, so I took a .jpg image of the sheet.

The car was made on Apr 27th, 2004 and is between #96 & #124. It is bone stock to the point I have had nothing done to it except correct the polarity on the intercooler pump motor. The pulls were done outside on their portable DynoJet unit and it was approx 65º F. I let the car sit for 20 min after getting there to cool off a bit.

I am very pleased to see the 211 & 214 HP in 4th gear with a back up 3rd gear pull of 216. THe numbers as explained to me. The operator said that there is very little difference on a 3rd and 4th gear pull on the FWD OD tranny cars. 98% of the time he says the graphs will overlay on themselves. As you can see by mine, that is the case. There is only a 2 HP difference between being a little over 1:1 to being a little under 1:1. The DynoJet brand of dyno is accurate from session to session where a mustang dyno can vary because of the electric motor and heat build up. Each brand will claim that theirs is the best, nothing new here, everyone that sell a product goes down this path. I like the fact that the next time I go back, any increase will be a true increase over what the car ran today as measured by these numbers. Also he said that there is no need to do a conversion for a 1:1 ratio to get the "right" horsepower reading. As a rule of thumb he said it will only be a couple of HP difference.
