Default 2008 Saleen GT & 2010 GT500 Dyno Day...

Me and a few buddies went to put our cars on the dyno this morning as all three of us had the desire to check run our cars. The chart below contains only two of them: my 2008 GT with Saleen blower and Brenspeed 93 tune and my buddies 2010 GT500, only mod is Corsa Extremes.

2010 GT500: 470rwhp and 455lb/ft of torque
2008 Saleen GT: 447rwhp and 417lb/ft of torque

The powerband of both cars is great and they make a ton of torque down low. Both are a pleasure to drive fast as well as being good daily drivers.



The other car we ran was a Factory Five Cobra with a 2007 Mustang GT motor with Helion turbo on it... he hit 467rwhp and 464lb/ft of torque. Needless to say his car is ridiculously fast.

That would be a blast to drive I bet! What do those things weigh, like 2500 lbs?

It's about 2,500 with the driver...

My car and the GT500 (which are virtually identical in acceleration) can't even touch the car past 80mph... even with drag radials he doesn't have much grip through 3rd gear.

I'll try to post videos of the runs later today...

Could only get one video of the computer during my run... still kind of cool though.

Hey, nice numbers, is the gt500 stock with stock tune?
SORRY, NEVER MIND, JUST SAW THE EXHAUST MOD.
