It's clearly fake. Look at the other posts on that page.

Nevermind these are fake. Look at the other posts on this page. https://plus.google.com/114014362233789327198/posts All it does is bash the Corvette and they also said they already tested the 2017 Ford GT. It's fake.

Wow. How could the numbers from two different magazines be so different? That is ridiculous. I can't wait to see more test results to see how it all lines up. Edit: Nevermind these are fake.

So you believe a made-up rumor from a random Camaro5 member, and then you change the rumor to say that the Mustang won, and then you take that as fact? I just want to be clear here...

Post the link to the C5/C6 rumors. I looked for a little bit and I couldn't find anything. And it looks like the Camaro Z28 that Motortrend used in this test is their long term car, which they have already put up against the 911 GT3 at Big Willow (what a shock, they can't always use Laguna...

All 5 cars were not at K&N at the same time. The Camaro SS was not dyno'd at K&N at all. It was dyno'd by Hot Rod magazine (I know they're owned by Motortrend) at Addiction Motorsports. And Motortrend has never dyno'd a 2015-2016 Mustang GT that I know of. And the GT350, Z28 track test was...

Yes that is correct. All the gearing is factored in by the computer hooked up to the dyno (it has to factor in the final drive as well) so the dyno graph it puts out will be lower if you run in a lower gear. Here is an example of the same 2011 Mercedes S63 being tested in 4th and 5th gears back...

The Viper has 645hp N/A.

Look it's right next door! You can practically walk there!

It means you should take dyno tests with a grain of salt. The results are all over the place, especially when comparing different dynos on different days by different operators. There are so many variables it is ridiculous. The only time a dyno is really useful is when tuning a car because...

No, they take the gear ratio into account when calculating the engine torque and horsepower. So a lower gear would accelerate the rollers faster but it would be divided by 1.32 instead of 1. The 1:1 gear is more efficient since it just passes right through the transmission. Also the higher...

Lol, running it in 5th gear would only give a higher number. Nice try.

Edmunds also tested a pre-production 2011 Mustang GT, and it dyno'd at 395 hp, a loss of only 4.1%. Then they tested their long-term 2011 Mustang GT, which was a production version, and it only dyno'd at 380 hp. I guess Ford must be sending ringers out too then...

http://www.edmunds.com/car-reviews/track-tests/2012-ford-mustang-boss-302-dyno-tested.html Oh look here's a Boss 302 that dyno'd at 416hp, a loss of only 6.3%. WOW!!! FORD ENGINEERS ARE AMAZING AMIRITE GUYS?

Well you should have read it, you have a lot to learn.

Keep making up facts. The Camaro SS was dyno tested at Addiction Motorsports in Chatsworth, CA, which is 299 miles away from Laguna Seca. The K&N dyno, which was used for the Z28 and GT350 is in Riverside, CA, which is 368 miles away from Laguna Seca. Let me know the next "fact" you want to...

You can't compare two different dynos that were tested in two different years. You have no idea what you're talking about. They were extremely close, that is normal. And like I just said a minute ago, their actual SAE certification tests were less than 1hp apart, and the Camaro did not use...

The Camaro is rated at 455hp, the Corvette is rated at 460hp (455hp without the dual mode exhaust), so you're wrong on that. The LT1 was never retested for the Camaro. The SAE just adjusted the Corvette's rating based on the slightly different induction restriction and backpressure levels in...

The Camaro SS beat the Corvette by 3 hp, and they were tested on different dynos in different years. That is totally normal. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I'm surprised they were even that close with how many changes were made...
