Lol, thanks for all the comments guys.
And for those asking about the dyno there is nothing wrong with it.
#1 Mustang Dynos have low numbers since they are a load based dyno (helps with tuning which is all I care about anyway). Remember you can really compare your numbers from another dyno (even if it is a Mustang dyno) because there are going to be differences in calibrations, etc.
#2 All I really care about is the difference between my baseline run and final run (I want to see that my mods and tune had a positive impact).
I can guarantee that if I put this car on a DynoJet dyno I would be seeing over 300 whp and wtq. I have run it at the 1/4 mile track once in the middle of the crappy Texas summer and with my crappy 60 ft. I ran a 13.3. I'm pretty sure my car can break into the 12's with the current setup.

Haha Hector. I should have put my disclaimer in there that said that was in jest. I love Evo's but my 05STI vanity plate was just too boring, I had to step it up.

That is what I figured. I love the look of the STi, they sound amazing, and the power is almost identical with the Evo.

You really think you got that much gain from a intake/tune/exhaust?

I realize that. That would get you close to 300whp, but not well over it.

Yep. People with the same mods as me do it all the time over at IWSTI. But I would have baselined around 240-250 whp on a Dynojet stock.
But again, dyno number don't really mean anything (unless you are comparing baseline and final run). I think the true test of your car is the 1/4 mile. There everyone is on the same playing field and there is no room for excuses like a dyno reading too low or someone having inflated numbers because a tuner can decide to make a dyno read higher. Go to the track and if a guy has inflated numbers it will show, just like how my low dyno numbers still gave a low 13 second time (and again I can hit 12's on this setup I just need to practice).

Maybe I should have been clearer, it would be pretty close to 300 whp. I mean I am speculating because I haven't dynoed on a DynoJet but from seeing other guys that have gone the same route as me hit 300 whp on a DynoJet I wouldn't doubt it. But yeah, we aren't talking well over 300 whp, just around 300 whp.

Yeah, I guess you could make that comparison, and by ya'lls logic, the VW R32 would be the Barracuda right?
NICE STi man!
