I wouldn't pay a dime to run on a stang dyno. Duke I hope you get on a dynojet if given the option. I don't believe they can "correct" (e.g. SAE corrected) your curve after. Whatever that stang reads you will not be happy.

Do you have a estimation on how many hrs it will take on a dyno to get all the "No Load" and "Load" information.

Get in touch with me at kuba0043@umn.edu and I'll help you out with the data logging. I thought it'd be really hard to but it wasn't at all. They can help you with the data logging but it's still a really neet thing to learn and you'll need to do it yourself. They're moving the shop to Elk River next weekend and I'm not sure where the new address will be but the phone number is the same. It was $100 for three pulls.
First off, anyone guessing below 240 on the hp is WAY off. Not only that but even TP recommends the Mustang Chasis Dyno if you can get the charts printed in color as the software isn't as great on the stang dynos. By the way I have the charts on my jump drive but don't know how to read a .drf file. Anyone know how and I can post the charts?
It was a lot of fun and a great learning experience.
Only crappy part is the truck is running off the charts rich.

EDIT:
The Dyno Jet 248c drums spin freely, once moving they are the only thing that creates resistance to the tested car so then engine power/torque can be calculated.
The mustang dynos use large magnets/magnetos to keep an even loaded weight on the wheels during testing......more like what it would be in real driving on the road.

The suspense is killing me!!!
I'm guessing 252/315

LMAO. Well I know the HP number but I can't remember the TRQ #. I'm trying to figure out how to view these .drf files on my computer so I can read the graphs and tell/show you guys.
Anyone know how to read .drf files?

The only way to view a *.drf extension is to view it with the application which wrote it. There might be some sort of *.drf emulator on the web, good luck finding it though.

Well nobody guessed both but PHS79 guessed hp and was off on trq when he guessed 305.
In the 3rd gear pull:
HP – 257.49
TRQ- 329.81
I'll try and do a screen shot of the graphs to show you guys.
Once again the mods are:
3.25" AF1
Magnaflow SIDO catback with a magnaflow resonator
TP 91 Octane Tune
5.4 3V V8 2005 4WD 3.73 LS
A/F ratios were off the charts rich so I'll be sending this to Mike for additional tuning and maybe we'll be able to get a little more out of it, but these numbers are still really good.
Conditions:
65.49 degrees Fahrenheit
29.10 in-Hg
Humidity: 10%
SAE: 1.00

I took screen shots of the graph and am just trying to figure out how to save the screen shots as jpgs to post them.
