Im going by a bit later this afternoon to see what i can put down and maybe see if the guy there can optimize my y pipe for me. What do you guys think ill be able to put down to the rollers? I think he said its the new mustang dyno or something like that. But the car is a 1997 mercury mystique, AEM cold air intake, gutted precats, dual 2.5" exhaust with resonator and magnaflow straight through mufflers, fms plug wires, and i just cleaned out the upper and lower intake. Its also an auto. Ill post the numbers when i get back home. 1997 Mercury Mystique -Tinted, Debadged, and no more door ding guards -Dual Exhaust With Magnaflow Mufflers -Gutted Precats -SVT rear sway bar w/ES bushings

I was hoping id see alot more but i managed 135.65 hp and 142 ft lbs. On a side note my car is running really rich so im looking into having the guy who runs the dyno do a custom chip for me. He said he can probably squeeze out another 20hp by going to an all custom chip. So ill probably be spending a while on the dyno soon getting it worked out. 1997 Mercury Mystique -Tinted, Debadged, and no more door ding guards -Dual Exhaust With Magnaflow Mufflers -Gutted Precats -SVT rear sway bar w/ES bushings

Id be happy if he can get me up to 150hp. Should i also see about dropping in a cooler thermostat before i take it back in for this? 1997 Mercury Mystique -Tinted, Debadged, and no more door ding guards -Dual Exhaust With Magnaflow Mufflers -Gutted Precats -SVT rear sway bar w/ES bushings

With your mods on a Mustang dyno I am thinking you won't get up to 150hp.
