Ok with all the mods below i only laid down a 12.40 @ 120 mph with a 1.8 60 ft time...and the next run i did a 1.9 60 ft with a 12.70 @ 117 mph...i took it to central florida turbo and had it dynod on the mustang dyno and the numbers where 442.6tq 393.5hp...whats the deal here?..because doing all those mods i felt a very big difference in power..i thought they came with 390 stock to the motor?
Something is fishy here. With a 60' of 1.8 and a trap speed of 120, the et should be lower. It almost sounds like your tune is pulling too much timing. Do you know how much total timing you are running? Stock cobras trap around 110, so you are certainly getting more hp. Also, is the clutch stock? How many miles are on it?

I agree with Birdie and Jdan, the tune is suspect. Hand helds are not the best type of tuner, you need to get a real dyno tune. As for what kind of dyno is used, it does not matter (unless you just want to brag about hp numbers). A dyno is just a tool to help you get the car tuned and it is more about the gain in hp/tq, the A/F ratio and what the power curves look like

my belt does slip a little at higher rpms..you can see it on the chart..and around 5300rpms my boost gauge starts going back down? it dosent stay peg'd out..and yeah i need to spend a little more time at the track and get some slicks because i start hopping in first gear and when i hit second it will almost get sidways with me..I tried to do a burnout and it starts hopping extremly bad..im about to just dump this diablo sport and run 100 octane and see how that goes

Try resizing that and posting it again. 100 Octane isnt going to help you at all. Im at 650 rwhp and I still race on 93 octane and drive daily on 93 octane.

i clicked on it a bunch of times and all of a sudden it resized.... i saw the chart and it looks alittle crazy... how are your air/fuel ratios up at those rpms, did it get alot more rich?

pretty much... his power curve drops like a brick alittle above 5k rpms... it drops as fast as it raises. it looks like a mountain.
