RE: what rpm does the 04 mustang stop making power
Tell me if I'm wrong, but with my understanding, each time you do a different mod to your car from CAI to exhaust to pulleys, doesnt that change the peak HP position in the RPMs? So if thats the case doesnt it depend on each individual car and the mods they run for when the power drops off?

mine makes the peak hp at 5200-5300, but i shift at 5800 to keep it in a good rpm for the next shift. o yea, mods do affect the peak etc. you can usually tell when it stops pulling or take it to a dyno and figure it out.

Peak horsepower is around 5200-5300, but you should still shift at redline.
Shifting at redline drops the car back into the power band instead of farther down in the RPM range where it doesnt make power.
I peak at 6000 now, which is where we cut off the dyno
