Tomorrow I'm getting up bright and early (for a Saturday) and making some dyno pulls with the Marauder. It's a mustang dyno, so the #'s may look a little low, but will be realistic.

I'm going to run 3 different tunes; the stock, Lidio 93 Octane, and a modified Zack 93 Octane.

I'm estimating that I'll put down 225rwhp stock and 238rwhp on one of the other tunes.

Anyone else want to guess my #'s?

I am guessing that both Tunes will make the same power.

The REAL diffeerence is in the Trans Shift Schedule!

Good Luck!!

You lose "roughly" 20% to the wheels, It is rated 302 at the crank not the rear wheels.

My 03 with a K&N and DR tune did 247rwhp 265rwtq on a MD-250 Mustang Dyno.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

230-240rwhp 240-250tq stock
255-265rwhp 260-270tq with tunes

Bone stock I was 241rwhp 253tq, round about, I know its close to those.

Here are the results:

Stock: 240 rwhp, 250 lb-ft
Lidio 93 Octane: 236 rwhp, 247 lb-ft
Lidio 91 Octane: 234 rwhp, 244 lb-ft

I know this doesn't make sense initially, but it's probably due to both of the aftermarket tunes detonating and the car pulling timing. It didn't make any pinging noise on the dyno, but the knock sensors are more sensitive than the ears.

What the hell are those sheets? They look like something my 2 year old drew!

Those have got to be the hardest to read graphs I have EVER seen! Not being able to read them.... I :dunno:

No offense but this question was addressed in post #10

That sucks. Did they test in 3rd gear with the converter locked up?

Well, the pulls were done in 3rd, but I'm not sure if 3rd was locked with the other tunes.

To the other posts, I was thinking about putting some of that data into a spreadsheet and making them a little easier to read.
