you can gain power just by going to a lighter wheel/tire combo. So imagine subtracting the full 100+lbs that a set of stock rear wheels and tires weight?
again, it's just a dyno number which doesn't mean much and you can't really compare a hub dyno to a dynojet. Would like to see what...
'Works' is one way of putting it.
There's a guy here that put a ProCharger on his 2024 a while back and was running the factory tune, IIRC the factory tune will sort of compensate for a few lbs of boost.
Also, are you talking about your Mustang that you don't even posess yet? The one that's a picture from Ford's build a Mustang page, in your avatar?
I almost feel bad for picking on such a newbie.
:facepalm:
That doesn't prove anything.
Run your car around each track with and without the strut bar (have someone else remove it, or install it, without letting you pop the hood to see), and show us how much faster the strut bar makes it...
You don't need oil pump gears. You're going to want some drag radials for the rear.
I would suggest going with the stage 2 upgrades right away. bigger heat exchanger, smaller pulley, larger throttle body. That's all you really need.
