Because not a single number you have spouted as an example to back you up has been correct. LMR numbers, wrong. CJP numbers, wrong. Stangmode numbers, wrong. AM numbers, wrong.

In fact they ALL did in the 421-425 WHP SAE range, and the 431-436 STD range. The only one to do under 420 was LMR with 415. Other auto dynos I've seen are also about 412-418 range. StangModes are a bit bumped, but not by a lot. Other Manuals are in the 420-425 range. The only reason you're gonna see 385 is due to running in a lower gear on autos to not hit the speed limiter on the dyno.
Stangmode, 436HP;

Then he got 415HP with an auto;

LMR, 415HP; https://lmr.com/products/first-2018-mustang-gt-dyno

Carlyle Racing, 386 hp; https://speedsociety.com/the-2018-mustang-gt-is-here-and-we-have-actual-dyno-numbers/

CJPP; 420HP;

CJPP, 385HP; https://www.mustang6g.com/2018-mustang-gt-vs-2015-mustang-gt-dyno/

If these are coming in around 490 crank, I’d be really upset if I was these guys making low 400’s at the wheel... I must be one of those guys with really bad drive train loss then, 465whp with e85 and full bolt ons. I must not have one of those 490 stock crank power engines.
All dynos are calibrated differently, even between the same types such as Dynojet, Mustang dyno etc. so your 465whp FBO e85 car might be 495whp on another dyno. The best use for a dyno is measuring the gains so that's why it's always a good idea to get a stock baseline dyno before you do any mods.


Stangmode and American muscle. Check them out. LMR and another got around 385 at the wheels.



The modern idea on drivetrain loss is 8%-10%. Especially that 1080R trans.

And if you can find an engine dyno run, it's still useless without the stock exhaust system.
So Gen 3s dyno at 385 now? :cwl: I'll have whatever you're smoking.

Also autos are not at 8-10% loss. Maybe a PDK is, but torque converter autos are still at 12-15%.

One thing to note is that peak horsepower is not a particularly good way to convey overall engine (or car) performance. I would think some sort of 'area under the curve' value from say, 4k to red line would be a much better way of describing and comparing engine performance.

Like I said STD, listen to the dyno operator, he says 425.
Let's start with this watch the whole video, the 2nd pull is 436HP.

Yeah, STD. Watch at 9:30+. at 10min they say 425.
He states 436 several times in the video. This is where the "It's 500HP" is coming from.

Anyways, drop it unless you've got engine dyno results you're going to share. There's no reason at all to believe the engine is over-rated.

So.. your lack of listening to a video and inability to read means you gotta drop out now.. okay.

Let me ask you a question;

What point, exactly, are you trying to make?

I just went back in this thread, and realized you've jumped into a discussion between me an another poster. So what point are you trying to make? What are you trying to argue about?

Actually it started by you quoting me and then citing multiple incorrect numbers. So you seem to be REALLY bad at citing facts.
