Who cares about the dynos all those things are alwasys so different... just go to the track and find out for sure how fast your car is.

its prob assuming zero slip off the line or something. Those mustang dynos always read low, I went to a awd mustang dyno in lake placid and it read at 245/275. Of course with a dyno tune I'm sure the numbers would increase a bit.

Dyno numbers are good for a before and after but so many dyno adjustments and brands that they can be off as much as 10% from mustang to dyno.

The short early on times are typical of 1/4 mile simulations run on dyno's--keep in mind they've got the rear-end strapped down tight and in VERY good contact with the rollers...

I'd say 14.3. Street tires and a steeper gear don't usually mix very well. The lowest 60' I could get my first time out was 2.2
Granted it was almost 90 degrees out but none the less a DR would def. help

I think mrt could run a 1.7 short time. I went 1.85 with stock power.....

Feather that baby with loads of throttle and she'll bite and send you on your way.

I went a 1.60 NA on nittos with a slight bog. The last time on I went a 1.79 (on the spray) spinning quite a bit. I hope to make another pass soon on the new style of nittos, if the track is prepped I see a 1.5x in my future.

Not to hijack the thread, but when are the new nittos going to be available for sale?
