Did a few dyno runs to see what the Mystique was doing (2.5L MTX).

It feels and sounds good but understandably doesn't have a top-end like the SVT. It has an SVT TB, an SHO Y-Pipe w/cat and a "crush bend" 2.5 system into a dynomax.

The only difference between the two runs was the air filter. The AFE gave virtually the same HP 148.23 vs 148.16 and only 1.6 more FT/LBS torque 146.92 vs 145.28, but it is a consistant difference throughout the curve.

I'll try to run the same comparison with the SVT after I get the clutch installed this week. I'm thinking that the AFE would show a better gain on the SVT, but only the Dyno knows for sure.

BTW, how do these figures stack up to other Mystiques?


These links don't seem to be working. I'll try to fix them.

OK now.
