Question 2011 5.0 Dyno Charts

I searched and couldn't find this thread, so I thought I'd start it. If you've had your 2011 Mustang GT on a dyno, post the graphs here and show us what the Coyote 5.0 really does. Thanks!

If there was anyone here in Vegas tuning them yet, mine would be on a dyno.

I don't have the graph but I saw one run bone stock with 46 miles on it and it put down 374rwhp. The dyno used is not optamistic.

Something to note is that when laid over a 3v graph the 4v 5.0 is nearly identical till about 5K and then it climbs from there. Also keep in mind the 4v 5.0 has about 800rpm more to play with. And that 800 rpm is where a lot of it's extra power is at. Spin a 3v to 7000rpm and it will make quite a bit more power too.

Survey says 'XXX' nope (where'd you get your information?)

a 3V will NOT make more power beyond redline. The reason a 4V does and has a higher redline is because it's built to spin that fast and it breaths better with 4V instead of 3V.

A stock 3V and 90% of the bolt-on ones will fall flat on their face and could spin a rod after redline. Thus the reason they are redlined where they are. You cannot simply bump the limiter up on a 3V and assume it will make more power just because a completely different motor has a different redline and does...

370 at the wheels fits in with 412 with the 12% drive train loss. That's also enough to keep me happy

Exactly where did I say that the 3v was set up to spin 7000rpm? The answer is NOWHERE. The point being made was that the faster you spin a motor (if cammed correctly) the more power it will make, period. If you can’t grasp that look at a 2011 5.0 graph and lay it over a 3v graph. How does the power compare at 6200rpm?


In addition to that it has come to my attention that most dyno runs of the new car have been made in 4th gear which is standard for most cars. The problem is that in most cars the gear is a 1:1. The drum on a Dynojet is calibrated to work with a car running a 1:1 ratio. When you run a different one you get different HP readings because of the drums programmed acceleration factors. The new 6spd is 1:1 in 5th gear. When run in 5th the peak power numbers drop as much as 20hp. They are not as fast as word of mouth would indicate.
