I envy you man . Not only do you have the Vortech S/C installed, but IMO you have the best color combination...love the Kona Blue with Silver Stripes! I wish I wound have chosen the same.
Good luck with the car!

Could be a low producer from the factory. My car w/an intake and tune only made 265rwhp. Brenspeed told me some of them are just kinda dogs for whatever reason and are down a few percent on power right from the factory.
I honestly think its the way the car is broke in. I have a personal belief that if the car is broke in hard from the get-go, this results in better compression and thus more HP. From what I understand, the result can be a 20 percent increase. I know this is a contentious issue, so I say this is how I do it; its not for everyone.
*EDIT* Btw, that is an awesome looking 10. I love the color/stripe combo, and job they did under the hood looks really nice and professional!

congrats on the S/C!!....I have to agree with some of the others, the numbers seem way low, even for being true wheel horsepower numbers from a Mustang Dyno. It definitely could be a number of things...
looks very similar to the kits on the 05-09's..here's a picture of the Vortech HO S/C on my old 2005 GT. On a Mustang Dyno it made 425rwhp/404rwtq @ 8.11 psi.

It looks EXACTLY like your system. Ya know, I agree about the numbers. They do look low, and the car is SICK fast now so maybe there off a bit....??? Maybe I need to get it tested again.

seems like your stock dyno #'s are a little low. others have posted higher rwhp #'s like 270 rwhp stock...
Just got word from Vortech. They told me that that use a "Mustang Dyno MD-250" and they usually read VERY low compared to other Dyno's. Thats why my before and after spec's seem really low. Guess that makes sense.
