Default 436 RWHP

Hello!

I wanted to ask if you think my HP numbers seem fair for what was done. I have a new 2014 Mustang Premium GT Track Pack (3.73 6-spd)) with Recarro seats. Anyway, it's got a Boss intake, JLT cold air intake, full stainless BBK headers and X pipe with cats, SVT (2011-12 GT500) mufflers, SCT custom flash and dyno tune. After 9-10 dyno runs, it's pulling 436 RWHP (SAE net) on 92 octane. They said it will gain about 5-7 hp when it "loosens" up. They're going to dyno it again at 5K miles. What do you guys think?

Sounds about right, if anything it is on the high side not the low! Nice!

Thanks for the support! However, even though my new Mustang did 436.87 hp (RWHP) on the dyno, it only yielded 378.79 for torque. In other words, I may have gained a good amount of hp with the upgrades, but the extra hp is not showing up strongly until 5,000 rpm +. The Ford SVT dealership set my red line (limiter) at 7,500 rpm. They said I should launch the car with my stock 255s tires at about 2,000 rpm, and at about 3,200 rpm with drag radials -- which I'm not going to put on my car. These guys, who all they do is GT500 and GT upgrades for Ford, say this car should run about 12.0 flat @119 on stock tires -- with a great driver. They said 11.6-11.8 on drag radials. Hmm....

I think they said 119 mph trap speed at 12.0 -- I forget -- maybe it was 119 with the drag radials. They also said to shift at 7,200-7,300 rpm because by the time I do, I'll be at 7,500 rpm. Two of the top guys who also race Ford Mustangs drove my car (hard) on their test area/strip after the dyno tune to make sure all was good.
