361 to the tires with a bad plug? You must have more mods than what is in your sig, good runs though!

Maybe the dyno read high, but that's what it said.

It's going down to Murillo's in San Antonio this Sat for a dyno tune. I'll post up what the results were.

What do they usually make with cams? I honestly thought the numbers were low for a cammed car which made the plug thing make sense.
Comp Cams 127300

Well those cams require a valve spring upgrade as well as a phaser upgrade IIRC, mine did not and I only picked up 30ish with the cams and charge motion deletes. I don't see 360 being out of the question with those mods, but I wouldn't think so with a bad plug. Still, I bet it is a very strong car, that is Comps most aggressive cam for the 3V, no?

360 seems high to me. Most I've seen is 345-350 with cams, but dynos are just that...dynos.

It's in NE San Antonio. The address is 6214 Krempen Ave. The guy who tuned is the owner, Mike Murillo.

The car put down 312hp/298tq. I thought was low and I asked him about it. He said he uses a Mustang dyno, which reads lower than the Dynojets most shops use. He told me those numbers are normal for a car with my mods.

From the seat of the pants, the car now feels like it gains power down low faster than before, but seems to take a slight bit longer to get the RPMs higher. It had a bad front O2 sensor (driver side), I did not know that going in. Murillo said he would be able to tune it once it warmed up and after the tune he had one of his guys replace the O2 sensor.

You know it is funny you say you had a bad o2 sensor, after I cammed my car and went to tune it my tuner said he was seeing a bad o2 when he was trying to tune it, didnt throw a code but was giving funny readings.

I'm not sure what he charges to dyno a car without tuning it. He charged $450 for the dyno tune.
