In the end most good tuners will tell you that chassis dynos are more of a tuning tool to help compare you percentage of change in power more so than actual power number. Not sayin that the numbers are not accurate. Its just a fiercely debated topic.
We first ran the car with the box (caravan) manifold. The switched to an ITB set up.
We saw a 10 HP increase through out the range, and an almost 10 foot pounds of torque with a broader flatter curve.
This was a Dyno Dynamics Dyno I don't know how to compare it with a Mustang or a Dynojet
