    Seriously. 600 RWHP+

    Pullin the wheels and everything































    On a Mustang dino on a shitty tune through a heavy 9" and 4.11's.....

    416 RWHP and 375 RWTQ


    Now, I am on a much better self tune ( with some AWESOME help) and running a 1 bar speed density tune. Ill take the Pepsi challenge any day with this tune over what I had. She pulls good.

    Ill have to ask. As it sits right now, I dont wanna put anything on anyone not expecting it. Before you even ask for what im doing (email to email logging and uploading) you at LEAST need HPT Pro and a good wideband. LC1 is what I went with, but probably would have went a different route if I heard some of the stories of the problems. Either way, Buy yourself HP Tuners Pro and a good Wideband ( NOT Narrow band) and then start reading.

    played around with one--- the guy who has it compared the desktop dyno to actual dyno numbers of engines he built, and hp was always within about 20 hp but torque was bang on

    I have it, as does my brother. He built his 402 big block for his Monte Carlo and used this software at the same thing.

    He told me it's very accurate, but you have to have very detailed info on your cam and heads for it to give realistic values. Thus knowing flow rates at which lift. If you guess at that stuff, the #s and powerband can be way off
