More photos and specs here

The car had a whopping 130 miles on the odometer and a $167,000 sticker still on the window :badass: :peelout:

(Unfortunately my camera shut off, so I had to splice the video together...)

Whoa, is that a mustang dyno or something? 485? Or did you run it after whooping on it? I've never seen a number that low. Mostly 510-530ish. I've seen one other car with the KB snout and it made 670+.

Was it an Arab guy with curly hair? I'm guessing so. During the august event he showed up and was talking to me about how he bought it when he saw all of us roaming around Dearborn. I showed him the difference between stock and a pulley/tune car on the Southfield freeway and he said he was going to get the mods immediately :laugh:

Nope it was a Dyno-Jet, we made two pulls before and two pulls after and it made similar power on all pulls. Keep in mind, the car had no miles. We had another one in here a few weeks earlier and it made 505 RWHP stock, but had 1,500 miles. This car used the KB supplied tune and KB said it should make roughly 625-630 RWHP with the supplied pulley/tune, so it was right there.

No sure if true:
I've read over and over about how these cars ahve a "break in" tune from the factory until a certain number of miles.

aGAIN: NO IDEA IF TRUE OR NOT.

If true then what do you do?? After X miles go back to the dealership and they reflash the PCM??

No, I'm sure it is comparable to the Bullydog trial tunes for diesel trucks that wear off after a certain peiod of time. I know the new Shelby is the same way. We have an employee here that has one and the car will not make full boost until xxx miles.

When it hits X amount of miles it adjusts everything according to it's parameters it has after you hit X miles...
 
I garauntee it's because the air inlet is collapsing. The rubber is too pliable and it collapses at high rpms screwing with the airflow. It occurs even on stock cars. You can buy a little inlet sleeve from Accufab that will keep it stiff.

I hate dyno racing.. its a tunning tool.. you have a base line who cares what it is... An then you have the after which shows improvment\or non-improvement.. thats what was expected from the parts\tune change a increase\decrease.. a dyno shows the difference..
