Blue is baseline dyno run. Red is after kit install and tune. I was pleased with the baseline dyno numbers but very very very underwhelmed with post kit and tune install numbers. Am I reading this graph wrong? lol.

Hmm, that's less than what was even advertised by Ford. Something has to be up with the dyno or the way it was graphed? Someone else can chime in I'm sure.

Dave is posting his shortly I believe so we'll be able to compare.

Do you have any prior mods?

My car is bone stock and picked up some good gains. Will post the graph soon.

I guess this is why the Bullitt isn’t any faster per magazine tests. Pandajoshy, was this dynod with hood closed? That would explain a lot. Maybe the open air element was heatsoaked?

Definitely good to hear after seeing the other graph. Please do post as I'm curious to see how yours did.

Of note is that Ford chart is engine dyno. This is wheel dyno. Having said that, the seat of the pants dyno says more delta below 4,000rpm than chart shows.

Either way that car is making a ton of power! That’s not even to redline either

I always wonder about this one, the Roush CAI one, AM has it on a dyno with an open hood, but they are not even answering anyone who has already been asking them if it was some custom tune or the Power Pac 1 tune....

If it really is the Power Pac 1 tune, then that looks impressive.

Jeez. The gen 2 had underrated power pack numbers and here we are with practically nonexistent gains. Either the FP tune needs a couple of runs, the stock tune was being very generous (it did have its days where the car pulled a lot harder), or it's just underwhelming.

I suppose there is the possibility that it's a matter of the FP tune being as sensitive to knock as the stock tune.

That was with a custom tune. They did a separate video with the Roush power pack and picked up much less gain.

Got the car back and it feels great, especially off the line and at the top end.

Comparing the run to redline in second gear, before the upgrade, the car seemed to struggle and take some time to reach 7k rpm. Now after the upgrade, 7k rpm comes on a lot faster.

Here is the the graph.

I would definitely recommend this product since it’s carb legal and retains the factory warranty.

Thanks for posting! Can someone break this down and point out the max gains?
