Default New Guy...Questioning RWHP????

Alright guys im new on this site. SO i just have a question i drive an 02 Mustang Gt and i have a few mods to the motor. I hace a cold air intake, long tube headers, flowmaster exhaust and under drive pulleys. I went to a car show today in PCB and ran on the Dyno by Dyno Jet. After 3 passes my best run showed i was pushing 341.4 rwhp. A few people got mad saying there was no way my car could do that since i am basically almost all stock. But it is Dyno proven. I just want to see what yall have to say could the dyno be wrong or are the people just jealous???

The Dyno doesn't lie, people are just jealous. Have you run this car in the 1/4 mile? If so what are your times? With 341.4 to the wheels you should run high 12's ... a tad slower then a 2012 5.0 mustang.

that dyno is broke. you might put down 230 to 235 rwhp at the most.

agreed, no way you are putting out those numbers. Even h/c/i cars are barely getting those numbers

^^^^^ ??????
What do you base these comments on?

NO WAY the car is really making 341.4rwhp with those mods. It is probably making 241.4rwhp not 341.4.
A new edge with 341.4rwhp should run MUCH better than high 12's.

I don't see any mention of a tune either, 240 rwHP with those mods and a stock tune would be just about right--
