Different tunes for na and nitrous or the same?
Sounds like a combination of the tune and the spark plug(heat range and gap).

What kind of plugs are in the car now? Do you know what the overall timing is? You have 2 different tunes?

is your car a 4.6 2v ? I have hard time believing 264 rwhp unless you had heads, cams etc. 2v from factory might make 200 rwhp if your lucky. you should be running low to mid 12's with a 100 shot.I dont know what your mods are so cant tell you a lot more. also if you have timing pulled out for the nitrous its going to be a little slower when not spraying it. you should als be running one step colder plugs if your not.

I guess I missed the joke.he did not give much to go on one being year, cobra, gt , 2v, 3v, etc. I was just speaking from experience. I have run nitrous and f/I. never seen a stock 2v with a couple bolt ons making 264 rwhp.

The joke was your response of " a 2v gt is lucky to get 200 rwhp stock from the factory". And I'm sorry to say it but with a prediction that low I don't believe you have any first hand experience with a 99-04 stock Gt on a dyno.

see thats where you are off your game stock 99-04 4.6 2v are 260 hp to the crank and about 200 to the rear wheels. educate yourself if you want to talk hp. look at my mods I did them all my self no shop involved. grow up and do some research before you speak

Please go educate yourself. Search "stock dyno sheet" and you'll find every single 2v GT run between 220-230rwhp. You are the one who is sadly misinformed.

I am sure there are plenty here that will agree and its just a fact STOCK 4.6 2V 260 AT CRANK and 200 to the wheels KEY WORD STOCK. you lose more then 30 hp from crank to the wheels. I tell you what call jpc racing tomorrow and ask them.he is one of the best mustang shops on the east coast. I guess that honda has more power then my 07 zx 10 also right.
