One of the shop guys has a F body with a few basic bolt ons and a comp cam. That car puts down around 415rwhp.

Was told that after my numbers. Feels bad man.

My car was on a dynojet. I think it maybe off though. The guy before me had lower numbers aswell. Ill put the graph up later today.

I always saw people selling those modified shortrunners and wondered what they can do, how do you thing they would perform in a SC application?

Exactly...id just look at the sheet for gains on mods you've done. And that is all. Like many others have said just look at your trap speed...it's a very good idicator.

I have spent more then a few hours over the years on dynos. I always preferred Dynojet dynos myself. Just keep in mind a dyno is a tuning tool and not designed for bragging rights unless you are doing a shoot out and making back to back runs against someone. The only thing I see that bothers me on your sheet is the torque dip. I would consider some exhaust tuning. What size pipe you running under that car? Large diameter short pipes hurt torque.

Exhaust mods are in the first post. Pipe diameter is no larger than stock. I forget what stock is...2.5 or 2.25?

The flows are dumped before the axle. I'm thinking of getting something else that exits at the bumper. Maybe magnapacks.

I was also reading that these 4vs love gears. I'm thinking of going 4.10. I have noticed that I turn 2400 rpms at 70mph. Not sure if this is typical or if the previous owner put a gear back there. The shop guys said it looks like it is the stock gear. 3.27?

Bottom line, if I had an SN95 Cobra, it would have 4.56's or 4.30's. At the very least I'd have 4.10s.

I wouldn't mind having a big gear but it's my dd and with the way gas is, I'd rather not guzzle anymore than it does now.

You can't go wrong with 4.10's. I DD with that ratio and get 20-22 mpg.
