Here is also a recent dyno done on a mustang dyno. I wasnt happy with the operators. They didnt hook up into my coil for a rpm signal. They put the wrong weight in for the load and refused to do a 5th gear pull to 7k because it took to long. Anyways.. Heres the graph for now. I will have a new one coming on a dynojet to compare to my last dyno:

Wasnt sure how the hood would look at first. Interesting design with the hood vents. But it looks awesome on the car! Very Nice!

Im up roughly 50 whp and 20 wtq by just having the turbo remanufactured by Beyond Redline! Im pretty damn happen with the results. This graph should be directly comparable to my stage 2 graph!
