    the time has come!

    Tomorrow I'm taking the MX-3 to the shop to get it tuned. I want you to vote to guess the MAX HP numbers that I can get to the wheels. It's a fully rebuild BP with port and polished head, ITBs, 4-2-1 header, high flow cat, 2.25 cat back, and MS I V3.0 So lets see your votes!

    i say 150whp.... just based off of my dyno results when i was stock...
    Catless, short ram intake, 182k burned some oil.. and otherwise COMPLETELY STOCK

    it put down 116whp 117wtq with an 82* ambient temp.....

    I dont see why you couldnt achieve the 150 mark with the fresh motor, ITBs, headers, plus the MS, we all know how much there is to be had with a proper tune!

    Plus the Do Not Pimp timing belt adds AT LEAST 80whp

        Voted,looks like the general consensus is that you are making decent power

        If your happy with the results dont forget to save that tune on the PC incase
        you need to re-install it.

            135-140whp. How high are you revving it?

                Rev limiter set to to 7300 RPMs. I don't think my hydraulic lifters & springs can handle more than that.

                      Mustang dynos are heartbreakers from what I see.

                        The dyno was cancelled due to uneven temps on the exhaust manifold. Guy at the shop said it could be the injectors (didn't sound smooth at a steady RPM), so right now I'm going to get my Kia injectors cleaned.

                          I did 114whp 99 tq on a mustang with intake filter catback and 18deg timing on a stock ecu. So we have a fairly good idea what a BP should base line at on a mustang

                            Cool! It will probably be back on the dyno next week or two.
