Default Thanks LG MS

Thanks LG motorsports. I ordered most of my parts from LG including a mail order tune. The car was dynoed today (mustang dyno) it put down 488 rwhp/425 rwtq 148 mph in 4th gear at 6500 rpm. The guys at LG were very helpful with the "package" I bought and all the phone calls I made for some tech advice. Thanks again! Anthony & Bobby

Dude, you're running a mail order tune with a heads/cam? With all that invested you should have spent another $150 while you were at the dyno and gotten a real tune. How do you know what your AFR is with all that extra flow?

1. What the correction factor? Dyno chart? Mustang dynos read lower than dynojets, so this would mean it's close to 500rwhp on a dynojet with a mail-in tune.

2. Are you running Fast 90/90?

3. How do you hit 148mph in 4th on a Z06? I used to hit redline at 142 in 4th mph exactly.

I'm not really sure if that dyno graph is showing rwhp, it might be showing flywheel hp.

Down at the bottom of the chart it says,

Engine power T WC 448 & Engine torque T WC 390.

That might be the rwhp/rwtq.

Also it doesn't say if the numbers were SAE corrected or not.

I'd call the shop to see if the numbers were SAE corrected and if they're RWHP or FWHP.
