Nice numbers, turn up the boost. You can see the difference in airflow at the high end, vs a T25. Have you thought about an SR rad to clean up the hosework?

like i had said its a mustang dynothat read 253rwhp…on a dynojet it would make 270-280 rwhp…and yu cant just up the boost…im playing it safe…the only reason its at 10psi is because i adjusted the wastegate manually…yu wil see it well over 300 before then end of the summer tho guys.just need profec bspec 2, head gasket, and ECU. this project hasnt been long in the making…just got this far about two weeks ago

not sure what u need a head gasket for…factory rates the motor to 400hp…if a head gasket pops, it wont ruin your motor…you have the fuel, 550cc injectors…just take it to a tech that can set a range in high and low boost setting so u r safe all around

tru factory fdoes rate it at 400 hp however high boost will crack the headgasket…seen it happen to many times…my buddy only has 301rwhp but he blew out his…so im jus not gunna take the chance…its not expensive and not hard to do.
