That would be Mustang Magic then and I don't think they've tuned many of these new Mustangs.

At first I thought it might be a House ofCommons party

Do you want lame testing results on a dyno with the hood open and a fan blowing on the motor or real world results at the track where there were no measurable gains?

The ultimate point of my thread was to inquire if people thought my car was down on power as a whole; not if the CAI was yielding any more whp. If you do a quick search, you'll find that there numerous arguments for and against the CAI. In my opinion, it boils down to if you're comfortable with spending the money.

That being said, I'd appreciate it if fellow posters not turn this thread into a CAI debate.

Considering your mods and the typical stock RWHP #'s we've seen for the 5.0, I think your #'s are about what would be expected.

"Sidenote: I'm not completely sure they dyno'd the car in 5th gear; but I don't think that'd be the cause for such a low hp number."

...actually..it could. If you are concerned, run it on the dyno again and make sure they do it in 5th. There was a 10hp difference when I ran mine the first time. Ran it again in 5th and got 389 (stock). There also seems to be a pretty wide range these cars are running stock.
