Get your money back fast! Theres no way anyone in the car community can justify making 1200lb tq stock. That’s just crazy. Did he say it with a straight face?

A dyno is not difficult to operate. Honestly. If this is passed off to you as normal, run and hide. That place should never get near your car or any one else’s. Yikes.

Thank you all for your responses. I was highly skeptical of what I was seeing, it was my first Dyno and I admit I am not overly familiar with them but I do my part in researching things. And those numbers and graphs looked nothing like any other dyno I've ever seen for this car. Let alone any dyno curve. It's good to know I wasn't crazy!

How was he getting your rpm signal? On a Mustang dyno you can use roller speed for rpm. That works on a manual car but won't work on an auto. Messes up the reading because of torque converter slip.

He connected a cable to my plug wire if I recall. I'm not exactly sure what he connected it too. But there was a cable mounted to the engine from the computer.

After browsing through the forums a bit and looking around more online and looking at their videos. I think I might hit up Complete Street Performance and talk to them a bit as they specialize in these cars. Little bit of a hike, but not too bad.

Why are they doing dyno pulls in second gear? or did I totally miss something.

Just so I am clear on how it works, wouldn't a super high number like this mean that some math was not performed to get the true number?

I have never seen a Dyno Chart like the ones posted. They are BIZARRE
