With all the mods and other post with similar mods I would have thought 415 range?

Honestly, with those mods I would have expected 440rwhp, what are your cam specs. I have seen 400rwhp on a cam and headers alone. I did notice that it was dynoed in 96 degrees
not the best conditions.

His A/F is 12:1 - There is at least 20RWHP left on the table from tuning alone.

Your right about the A/F ratio. It needs to be closer to 13.1:1.

dyno
ok, tuned out on a mustang dyno, a/f running in mid 11's, leaned out to mid 12's and power stayed the same, so kept it back @ 11's, car does feel like a different moster, feels great
when I was done tuning went back to original dyno jet too see gains from my base line

You may have left some power on the table with the tuning or your cam selection.
I did similiar mods.
Kooks w cats
Magnaflows
160 thermostat
Cam 224/230 581/592 114.........Dual springs, pushrods and retainers
Custom tuning.....Z industries
Dynojet 415 RWHP 398 RWTQ
Left the heads alone. They flow pretty good as is.
