2017 Taurus SHO

[Vigilante]

So had my 2017 SHO with PP finally dyno'd yesterday and am attaching the results. Mods include 93 tune from Livernois with their CAI. Two runs with Sports and one with D. Best run was the last with Sport after cool off. Is this about normal for my SHO with the mods I have?

That last pull seems like a beast! No tstat or 3bar map sensor?

Yes, I have both purchased from your company and both were installed at time of dyno

Great! There is no set instone number for the SHO because boost numbers change on conditions but in between 330 and 350 seems right in the average ballpark for those mods

Aren't the SHO's rated 365HP stock? I thought your tune on average helps make around 430HP

You are talking about crank HP numbers, the numbers i provided are the numbers the vehicle actually puts down at the wheels!

At the wheels? Mfg list engine power numbers on an engine dyno. Most people get dyno measurements at the drive wheel(s) with alot more running gear and other stuff dragging the number down. Power at the wheels is really all that matters in the end

Almost got posted before above..

Sadly because these vehicles are AWD they tend to lose alot of power transfering it to the wheels

The 365chp that Ford advertises, coupled with the documented 23% to 24% drivetrain loss, places our beloved shows at a range of 277-285whp.

Again, CHP = Crank HP and WHP = Wheel HP.

So yea, figure when LMS is providing their respective WHP #'s, those are considerable gains over stock.

Will a 91 octane tune and Cai will work whitout the 3 bar map mods? Or it will overboost?, 2015 sho non pp , thanks!

You do not neccessarily need the 3bar map sensor it is just an improvement on the overall performance on the tune and for the cost it is a pretty nice difference in the car at mid to top end

Interesting. So, 300 WHP with 3 bar, thermostat, colder plugs, CAI, and Livernois 93 octane tune?
With 365 CHP advertised by Ford, I would have figured 285-ish WHP stock considering 20%-ish AWD driveline loss. Do we know what the factory WHP was before the mods and what dyno was used--is Dynojet Research a brand of Dyno and, if so, is it known for being conservative?
