Default First Dyno....was expecting more

I went to a local car show today that had a DYNOmite dyno. Will put sheet up in a bit. I was hoping for more and don't know how accurate the dyno is. It was the type you back up on, not full car. Anyways 1st pull Peak Power: 414.3 HP @6104 RPM 398 Tq. 2nd pull 411.1 HP @ 6082 RPM 434 Tq. Ddin't have setup to check A/F. Had to RPM match by holding it at 3k. Why such a torque difference between the two? Lines aren't as linear as I would want. Said a better tune would fix that right up. Performance Autohaus was the company doing the dyno. I drove about 45 minutes to get there and may have cooled for 10 before the runs.

Guess I need to get away from the Eaton and either get a KB or Whipple.

BTW....it's a 03 Cobra

Sounds pretty decent! What blower is it and how much boost are you running?

It has 2.76 upper but all the pullies are made by Amazon Racing so not sure about lower, DenseCharger carbon fiber CAI, not sure what tune it has by previous owner. I do remember he told me it had been dyno tuned. Not sure if any internal mods. Had taken it to dealership b/c I thought it had the head tick but was told they pulled valve covers and it was aftermarket lifters and rockers that was causing the tick. They said it was normal. It is pushing between 13-15 lbs of boost according to Ford Racing boost gauge. Previous owner had told me it was supposedly pushing 493hp at the wheels. Haven't been able to get back in touch with him. He traded it in to a local dealership. He was supposed to bring me the vert boot cover and the saleen hard cover he had for it.

Wish there was someone close that could help me find out exactly what has been done. Not completely sure exactly what to look for. I've always owned 5.0's besides one 2V 03 GT.

I say find a good tuner in your area, ask around maybe on svtperformance.com and get a new dyno tune and take it from their.

yeah if it has the basic pulley, intake exhaust stuff then your numbers are a bit low.
