If you are running a full catless exhaust system you should benefit from a proper custom tune. |

I appreciate you taking the time to post your review of your AA custom dyno tune. I look forward to posting my results after the group Powerchip custom tune in Houston on 11/13. Before the custom tune, I’ll be dynoing my car (currently stock) on a Dynojet. After installing Fabspeed x-pipe w/HFC, RDSport Exhaust and AA pulley I’ll dyno my car again on the same Dynojet. The last Dynojet pull will be after the custom Powerchip tune. Cheers! |

I noticed that most of the downpipe-back exhaust manufacturers don't post AFR graphs, which is why I ask. There's also a lot of unsubstantiated claims about hiccups at certain RPMs with certain setups, loss of low end torque, etc. Glad you decided to chime in! |

Just FYI, Tut and I dyno'd on the same day for his baseline run on the Dynojet, and our numbers were very similar. Our peak runs were separated by 5whp which can probably be attributed to my AA exhaust. Like Tut said, dyno's are much better when used as tuning tools, then for peak number comparisons

In my experience a mustang dyno reads about 50 horsepower less than a dynojet. But that was only on my Procharged Camaro. Either way I am subscribed to this thread.

+1....optimizing timing and AFR actually make the car safer (if you've gone catless or added HFC's).

It specifically states in Dinan warranty, not to use with other brand aftermarket parts. So you better use all Dinan parts, if you want the warranty to be valid.

King Tut, I also went with RPI exhaust and love it. I considered AA but did not care for the look from the rear (chambers), but want to get there tune. Did you feel it is worth the investment for the tune? I live in the country so I do not wake up neighbors. Thanks

I feel that the price of the custom dyno tune was well worth it. Just send a PM to Omar and get an appointment since you are in Florida. That 20 hp was the cheapest 20 hp I picked up.

For real numbers go to a Dyno Jet and ask for the correction factor to be set at SAE Smoothing 5. That is an industry standard for reading power. The Mustang and Dyno Dynamics are tuning tools and are the best for that purpose.
Congrats on the 20HP |

All numbers are real numbers. I do agree that the SAE corrected Dynojet numbers have become the defacto standard for comparison. That is what I will be doing later this month on the same dyno that I already dynoed at when the car was bone stock.
