Default Mustang Dyno Results 11' GS

Aside from an air filter and the BB exhaust (more sound than power), I was pleasantly surprised. What is the "standard" used for drivetrain loss on a 6speed? Dyno place said 15-18%. Regardless, good baseline to start with and now to buy stuff.

Very respectable numbers, especially on a Mustang dyno

Mustang is about 10% below a Dynojet. generally its 10% loss for a stick and 12-15% for an A6

Very nice numbers! Especially for a Mustang Dyno! I'm not an expert by any means, but i'm guessing that your car on a Dynojet would be in the 390ish HP range.
Great results and have fun with her!

Thanks.

Honestly the Mustang Dyno was close to work so that's why I went there. I was expecting the hurt but was pleasantly surprised. Going to the track Sunday. If I touch the 12's and run in the low 110's I'll be happy.

I am lurking on several forums and seeing what folks are putting together for their LS3 builds. This summer will be just drive it, over the winter, heads cam, headers and tune. Even thinking about just building a motor for the heck of it.

Keep us posted on what times you run when you go to the track.

It might be hard to keep it in the 12's. With a good launch you just might surprise yourself.

Last time I was on the track was 14 years ago with a Mitsubishi Evo. Rev, drop clutch, go. I am not expecting much as this car will obviously require skill I do not currently possess. I will still have fun!

Still thinking about what I want to do. If I am looking at heads cam etc. I tend to think why not a stroker while at it. And then I have friends pushing the boosted idea.
