We finally got the chance to mess around and do some testing on the dyno with out new 2013 Shelby. The goal was to get some baseline pulls to see what it can make stock and then with a few other bolt-ons. So we headed to Power By The Hour in Boynton Beach where we strapped her down to the Dynojet for some runs. Joining us was our tuner Ken Bjonnes of Lund Racing. After making a few baseline pulls we yielded a best of 592rwhp/611rwtq. Pretty stout numbers for stock car in the 90deg South Florida heat. Right after that a few pulls were made with a tune only. Unfortunately we can't disclose the numbers as the car is being featured in a 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords Magazine article. However what we can say is that the tune alone is enough to put a smile on your face. After that we added our 3" offroad x-pipe and ran the car with the stock tune to see what the pipe was worth on the stock calibration. Once we got those numbers we re-flashed the car with the Lund Racing tune and ran it again with the offroad pipe to yield us our biggest gains over stock so far. The next few runs were done with a Nitrous Pro-Flow wet kit supplied to us by our good friends at Wilson Manifolds. As mentioned before we can't disclose the nitrous numbers yet as the nitrous install is part of an exclusive article being done by SVTPerformance.com. However this thing is ridiculous!!! Not only were the rwhp numbers insane this thing is a TORQUE monster.

We should be headed to the track this evening to see how fast she'll go factory weight with some M&H drag radials.

That 592whp number is much better than that one mag got with 566whp. It is surprising how those two numbers of stock cars can be that far off.

No doubt, it really makes you wonder what kind of abuse these magazines put on these cars before the get the recorded numbers out of them, and if the same abuse is applied to both cars equally.

When can we expect to see the article being done by SVTPerformance? I'd really like to see the nitrous results ad setup. It seems to me like that's the easiest way to go as well as the least expensive if your a drag racer.

The SVTPerformance article is scheduled to be released next week some time.

I believe on Tuesday but need to verify that.

Thanks, Jared
