Dont have all the exact numbers but this was at Yimi

2004 FXT Auto 91 Octane

1500 miles on new OEM short block and rebuilt heads

Mods
VF 39 PNP
TGV Deletes
STI Exhaust Manifold pnp and coated and Uppipe
08 STI TMIC
Grimmspeed EBCS
COBB Catted Downpipe
Stromung Exhaust
Walboro pump
phenolic spacers
Stock Airbox Modded
AVO long inlet

What do you guys think? I was hoping for a little more but I know it's an auto. Anything I should of done differently?
Oh it passed the CA Smog inspection because it looks all stock and that was the reason I went with the long AVO inlet and stock airbox. Nothing stands out in the engine bay.

This was also before Paul took it out for an hour of road tuning so he said those numbers would be a little higher but he didnt care about the numbers. Car runs great and is pretty damn fun.
 
2010 FXT

Cobb Intake w/box
Perrin Inlet
VF52 (Stage 1 by SoCal Porting, 11 blade GTX wheel, ported & polished)
PW Verticooler
Grimmspeed UP
Perrin Catted DP
ID1050x
AEM320
Grimmspeed 3port EBCS

272 whp / 286 wtq (Mustang dyno) @ 18 PSI - turbo could have flowed more, but wanted car to last a while
313 whp / 329 wtq (estimated dynojet)

Happy with the nice flat torque curve, car pulls hard and steady all the way to redline.

Had a battle with overboosting on the way to dyno day, but got a rom together good enough to hit 400. Little down on power but not much. Thats about all the stock header and stock heads can handle i guess.

Thats actually impressive that you broke 400 on OEM unequal headers!
 
Wanted to bring this thread back to life!

Took my 16' SJFXT to Simple Performance in SLC, UT. Stock run on a Mustang Dynamometer read 201 whp/227 wtq. After tune I had 227 whp/ 248 wtq. Love the difference I can feel on the road! Really itching to install a Grimmspeed intercooler and charge pipe for the FA20, and a Cobb J pipe. Anyone running stage 2?

I had my 2005 fxt 5-speed tuned at Snail Performance in Auburn Ca about a month ago.

Stock engine
Perrin up pipe
3" downpipe and exhaust
Equal length headers
TGV deletes
Older style STI intercooler
16g turbo
1050x injectors
AVO long neck inlet
Stock intake with high flow panel filter

Made 292 whp and 370 lb of torque. Mustang Dyno. Feels nice. I recently started autocrossing so I asked for a wider power band. I was hoping for 300 whp as an arbitrary goal of my own so that was a little disappointing but the power also comes on quite a bit smoother so it doesnt feel like its snapping you back on acceleration as much.
