half-way there, I think.
Went to a Dyno day today with AutoSHO (Chris) PanamaPat and a bunch of Thunderbirds. I'm pretty happy with this years results.
Red is last year and Blue is this year. Made more power with less boost (1-2 psi due to belt slip)

Three runs I did today, did a little tweaking to the timing curve after the first run.

My low end torque came up quite a bit from last year. The only changes made to the car since then, is accel 48lb injectors and moved the maf into the pressure side of the blower.

Hopefully Pat posts the overlay he got that compares the torque of my 3.2L and his 3.0L, I was suprised.

Autosho's M3 put down some very respectable numbers too.

9psi is what was reported by Chris. They are corrected numbers and I have no charge cooling.

Here the video I shot with my camera.

Yeah, I really liked the Accel injectors vs. the SHO Shop modified Reds. The spray pattern's much better, and I found improved my A/F with that change alone - I got more power, smoother running, and more complete combustion / better A/F.

Nice numbers Terry. Much more on the tq & you'll be in the 3rd Gear Club if you're not already. :evilgrin:

I might be selling my 48# accels. I maxed them out already:oogle: . They don't even have 5k miles on them. Oh well, I gotta spend mo money, mo money.

Hey, Terry. I checked your cardomain for some specs on the engine itself, and it just says "Custom built 3.2 Liter Motor." I'm wonderimg, are you running stock compression ratio?

Ever plan on adding some kind of charge cooling?

Yes, eventually. I'm pretty happy with how the car is running and how much power it's making.

:) 3000 lb dynojet rollers < 3400 lb Taurus.

The dyno was fun. My car made pretty much exactly what I was expecting, 207 whp, 214 wtq. I installed a new intake manifold today that should have given me around 10 whp on top of that, so I'll have to go back and dyno here sometime soon to see.

Pat's car was having a fuel delivery problem, so we didn't get to make very big numbers with his car. We'll have to see what it can do once we get that problem straightened out.

Here is the chart your looking for...

Terry's numbers are damned good for only 9 psi.

My numbers were off for a few reasons, but mostly related to inability of fuel pressure to keep up with demands. Either a bad Fuel Pump, bad wiring, or a faulty FPR. The SHO has not been on the road for nearly 6 months and needs some attention.
