Dyno'd the SuperShaker
I actually won a dyno eval at the Brenspeed open house, went today.
Have to say I am pretty disappointed. 399 rwhp and 388 torque. Upgraded from the stock S/C is a 3.4 pulley, upgraded plugs and KB BAP. The SS came with a 3.8 I think.
I had 275 rwhp when had CAI and tune, and that seemed low also compared to others..... I am convinced I have a factory dog. Brenspeed had said to me back then that they saw upto 20 hp difference in stock GT's from the factory.
I thought would be around 425 and wouldn't be able to go smaller pulley and stay safe (under 450hp), but guess there is room...
At least it sounds good....

Saw the other thread. Those results are wack from a supershaker. That's more like you'd expect out of a non intercooled vortech.
What did they have to say about the issue? Something is wrong.
BTW I have an intake and 93 brenspeed tune. 265whp. It gets worse than what you've seen. Brenspeed told me my car was a "low producer" from the factory. Wee!!!

Brenspeed told me they have seen a stock GT dyno 240whp.
It would be nice if they were all made the same. But some apparently roll off the line and do not meet what Ford publishes as far as power expectations go. It's a cheap car. Who knows why this is. If you have a car that isn't a low producer then I guess it was your lucky day.

A/F isn't on my printed graph, but I had asked and was told perfect. Dave mentioned made 9psi boost, but considering my Aeroforce gauge needs a formula entered for displying boost, I am not sure I would depend on that. And as far as timing.... I have no idea. Is there a way to see what the brenspeed tune has it set at thru the tuner?
I certainly don't feel this matters as far as results, but the SC was not installed by Brenspeed, was a self install that my son and I did.... OK, mostly my son
Brenspeed tunes of course, and was changed/updated when switched pulleys.
