They advertise it at 350hp wtf
The dyno chart on the EE site clearly shows 283hp and 284.3 torque. (2.8 pulley) Where is the 350 advertised?

He is probably talking about Steeda QS6 ... which even if they are talking about NET HP and TQ seem kind high ...

Whoops ... I was wrong about EE's dyno chart .... I was thinking they were showing over 300 HP & TQ ... I was wrong ...

Most numbers I see, torque is a smaller number than HP. So... is it bad that I have a lot more torque than HP?

TQ is the important number ... TQ = pulling power and quickness .... the more TQ the better .... don't worry about HP if you got the TQ ...

Torque is where it's at. I think Ford advertises crankshaft horsepower numbers. Rear wheel numbers will be lower.

Also, don't forget when they advertise the stock GT or saleen they are normally reporting hp at the crank. Motortrend did a comparison of several Mustang tuners and only the Shelby GT was rated higher in rwhp and rwtq. The saleen, roush and stock cars were the same or lower. Numbers will vary from dyno to dyno also, so try not to get caught up in the numbers. What is important is that the X charger adds a good 40% increase in rwhp and rwtq to your car. The intercooler adds only more potential.

Not even 300HP!!!, I remember that a lot of people here said that with X you can beat a GT. How X can beat a GT if not even close to 300HP? I have a V6 too and I have 2nd thought of getting a X-charger versus trading ifor GT.
He's saying 271 RWHP, not BHP.. the GT is 300 BHP

On the dyno it recorded 271 HP/301 TQ. And it was a mustang dyno, not a dynojet.
