DYNO ON MY 2005 V6 MUSTANG
Well I took my 2005, automatic, V6 for a DYNO tune and Horsepower check. Based on the mods made and what I have been reading on the website I expected somewhere between 190 to 200 Horsepower. The shop gave me a 93 OCT tune and ran my V6 on the DYNO and measured my Horsepower at 198 at the rear wheels when the RPMs were at 5100. Here is a list of my mods for reference. I have been reading about other mods to increase HP but it looks like the only other mod that will supply a nice increase is a supercharger, which is expensive or NOS which I don’t want to do. If there are any other mod that anybody knows of please list them.
K & N CAI with high flow air filter
True Dual Exhaust withe GT Take Off Mufflers and Xpipe
SCT tune for 93 OCT.
Thanks
Joe

You've got the big-bang bolt on's covered... you might want to think about putting in a new set of gears, like a 3.73 and a limited slip differential... while the gears won't add more HP it will give you more umph off the line!

Thanks,
Hey I saw the write up on your car in the Magazine, nice ride. I thought about gears but I drive this car to work every day and I don’t want my MPG to go any lower, right now I am getting 15 MPG for a mix of highway and around town.

Hi Rygen,
I like all the information you posted on your website, and by the way nice ride. Man you must have spent a lot of money trying to find the exhaust you wanted. I listen to all you clips. Were you getting 24 MPH on the HW or around town? To me 15 MPG seems pretty low.

RE: DYNO ON MY 2005 V6 MUSTANG
Most of my driving is a mix of HW and around town, wow I cant believe that you are getting 18 / 19 with a SC and gears. My air filter is new I just installed it two weeks ago. I am puzzled, I think a GT probably get 14 around town. I will have to see what I get on the HW.
