I went for a ride in the tow rig and honestly that thing is way impressive! From the crack of the throttle to no time@ all you are doing 120mph+! The truck has awesome spool and unreal torque!

Nice numbers, but I heard their dyno loosened up a little since they had it recalibrated recently.

Calibration on a mustang is pretty simple, enough so that they should be doing regularly. I could Se a change if they replaced the load cell.

That's just what I read somewhere else. I was kind of wondering if Trent had heard or seen the same.

It sure could be possible that they don't calibrate there load cell very often which could have a large effect on numbers (not sure why they wouldn't but I do know of some places that don't)

I was pretty surprised how easy calibrating was when the dude from mustang showed us how on my buddies dyno.

What I read said some people from Mustang were there doing some work or something I think. I'll try to remember where I read it and go back and see what exactly was said.

Finally found it.

The dyno is known for being extremely tight (Gillett Diesel) - however they've recently had to upgrade a computer and apparently it is reading higher now than it ever used to (same stock trucks used for before and after calibration)

Have you noticed how much if any it has changed, Trent?
