Yeah and track numbers mean everything because there are no variables such as track prep, suspension setup, tires, DA, heat, humidity, etc. right? Oh yeah and driver skill too LOL. You want track times only, I guess look around including Brenspeed's site and you'll see plenty of their Saleen, Paxton, etc. packages running in the 11s. It can easily be done with a Whipple too, so just pick whoever you believe is the best tuner and/or installer and go get blown.

Not sure if you took what I said the wrong way but I was only commenting on how people are so concerned with dyno numbers. Yes there are many variables to track times as well but anyone can post a dyno number but to posting a track time to back it up is to me what really shows the power of that vehicle.

Agreed. To many inconsistancies between dynos to really accurately compare cars quickness.

I don't think you can go wrong with either kit! It'll probably all come down to if I decide to attempt a self-install.

Although I've always wanted to go to mustang heaven

NotDisney Land its mustang heaven and the mustang gods at Brennspeed [sm=hail.gif]blessed me with 439 rwhp with only 8 psi of boost. Now moose why the no faith in dyno numbers [sm=lol.gif]I will need you to be more specific.
Well a dyno or rather the software is just calculating the rear wheel horsepower. So it's basically a guess.

Now my dyno results were only 403rwhp on 10psi, but I trapped 117.6 at the track, not once, but twice. Now you don't need a good launch, drag radials or even skill to go down the 1/4. You don't even need to do a burnout, but you do need power to reach a certain speed by the end. Of course altitude and weather play a role in trap speed, but unless you are a few thousand feet above sea level you will be trapping close to me and according to the dynos you should trap higher.
