We don't think that there is any cheating. Just something odd with the dyno setting and/or conversions from metric to imperial units.
There is no mistake, Sir

Torque we do in NM, BUT!… if numbers on the left side were in LB FT, then cross of power and torque was exactly at 5250rpm, like on screen below

So Math is correct, this is just another metric system

S650 Mustang Mustang Dark Horse S650 N/A made 537whp on dyno with bolt-ons & tune 83ae849c-cded-437e-9530-c7fbf28e3068

Please forgive my ignorant question, but I have never been to Russia, and may not ever be able to go there given the political situation between our two countries (I am in USA). When I lived in Germany in the military, the closest I have ever been, I could not even travel to Berlin because of my job in the military and security clearance (Cold War years). So here is my question:

Do they have drag strips around Moscow?


UPDATE - Well, Google tells me that they do have drag racing in Moscow and even have older American muscle cars running on the drag strip. Neat.

Well, sure we have here drag racing track and championship, link below
https://rdrc.ru/

We respect American cars, even have discipline on 1/4 among old USA cars called “Mad Buckets 🪣“

My friends on video below 👇


Mustang was my dream from childhood, but only at 35 I bought my first one 5gen 213hp

Then tried 2.3 ( 💩😁), then GT and now I have 2 stangs
1. Mach1 ESS G3 880whp Lund tuned (9.7sec 1/4)
2. DH n/a 437whp Shoemaker tuned

Also, we have big Mustang chat here in Telegram messenger, if You want, be our guest please) I am admin there)
https://t.me/ford_mustang_club

Also the biggest problem for us is customs fee… for example, my Dark Horse cost in Russia , new, with handling and appearence packages about 188k$ 🥹

Regarding old cars, my dream is Oldsmobile 442 🥰

Also, what is important - we respect every nation, I cannot say that we don’t like Americans, You have great cars, music (I am biggest fan of MJ 🪦)

Also we respect soldiers and honor🤝

Sir, trying to make weight reduction for accumulator

Checking google - says that 7 gen is another size then 6th

Some says
278x175x190
Another says
242x175x175
One more option
242x175x190

Maybe You can give reply? As I am really far from car… and we have only 2 DHs in Russia, second one is also not near the car😁

What I want to see is what this did in the quarter mile - specifically trap speed.

That will tell you what HP you are making.

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. Stock Autos are around 118 MPH Trap speeds.

hard to believe it makes 120 wheel HP more than stock.
I am sure it’s because of weight.. will do some weight reduction
1. Carbon-ceramic brake wheels
2. Front skinnies
3. Additional noise reduction removal

And will check

Also we made rides on low temperature, e85 don’t like it

Yeah - I'm not dissing on your ride at all. It's great... it just goes back to my thoughts that Ford over-rates the HP of these cars to start with, or something is weird with their power delivery.

Weight shouldn't be an issue - my BMW i4 M50 weighs over 5000lbs and hits 120MPH in the 1/4 mile, but has "only" 535 HP.

Maybe it's the lack of TQ compared to larger V8's I'm used to (Chevy), but trap speeds should increase about a mile per hour for every 10 HP added (mathematically at least - traction matters lol)... so you should really be close to 130 MPH if you're making that much at the wheels...

Good luck and keep us posted!

Thanx bro!

But my biggest question is how m5e60 2004 goes 100-200 in 7.5 🚀 (tune and trans change to DCT)
Very dangerous one😎
