Default Dyno Predictions for 1994 GT

Well in the next couple weeks I'm going to put the White Stallion back on the dyno and see what she is making for power now, anyone care to make predictions?

Last time she dyno'd 193 hp with H-pipe, 40 series and a K&N filter. She also had a shot tranny that was just robbing power from her. Keep in mind that just the new tranny alone knocked about 4 tenths off the 1/8th mile ET. It's now running 9.5 @72mph on a 2.0 sixty time.

When she makes the pulls this time she will have this:
- brand new T-5 courtesy of Blue Oval Corral
- MAC cold air intake with K&N
- BBK polished aluminum underdrive pulleys
- Adjustable fuel pressure regulator

As far as the fuel pressure regulator goes, I'll find a "safe" setting for the fuel pressure, and after making a pull we'll may adjust it to get some more power out of it.

So what are your predictions? I'm shooting for 213 rwhp, give or take 3hp.

If it was a T5 and you just put a new one in, you probably won't see a noticable increase in power. The cold air kit won't do much on the dyno, underdrive pulleys may be worth 5hp, and FPR won't do much unless the air/fuel is off which it shouldn't with those basic mods. Its getting nasty out weather wise, so if you dyno'd in the winter before, you may see a loss of HP, but any gains will be minimal I think.
It was a T-5 before, it had a leak and the fluid was old and basically sludge (I was told it was changed prior to me buying it) and that was affecting the hp I believe. Simply putting in a new T-5 dropped the car from the 9.9 range to 9.5 with no other changes and it also pulls much stronger on the street.

Also the A/F ratio was not consistent at all, that was the other big problem.

My car went from 279rwhp to 304rwhp.. only difference being u/d pulleys and a new t5.

Seems like you should be trapping faster than 72 if your car has more than 193hp.

72 was a typo, it's 75mph

Oh ok, that makes a lot more sense now, I'd venture a guess of about 205-210rwhp.
