VirtualReality Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Finally went stage 2 a little more than a week ago. Thanks to Mike and Greg at GST Motorsports. I went to GST for Cobb HFC DP install and baseline dyno. I was going for a protune, but Mike suggested me to flash to Cobb OTS stage 2 map and log it see if the car likes it. Mike did dyno run with data log, and the car likes it. He said he could add few more hp with protune, but it's not worth the money. Saved me $200+ I'm really happy with the result. The car pulls much harder and more low end torque. Does anyone have stock 08/09 5EAT on mustang dyno? I searched but couldn't find 08s. Here's the dyno chart: http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd6/VirtualReality_photo/Dyno/Dyno1.jpg http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd6/VirtualReality_photo/Dyno/Dyno2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbrjason Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Did you get a baseline run? The actual numbers are meaningless without a reference point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirtualReality Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 ya just the baseline run with Cobb stage 2 map, don't have the stock baseline run... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 only power mods the Cobb DP and OTS Stg.2 map? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirtualReality Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 Sorry, forgot to mention Cobb DP and OTS stg2 map are the only power mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 No prob, just wanted to double check. That's funny your tuner didn't think it'd be "worth the money" to tweak the Cobb map, most say it is a pretty conservative tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy T Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Get the protune! my 08 5eat put down 236whp and 240lb on PDX's mustang dyno. The only thing i have more is the Perrin tmic................you will be even more happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kupkake Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Seems kinda low to me... So you guys don't have catbacks? or dropin filters? just wondering what numbers i could expect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow05gtRI Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 catback will give you an increase. better flow post turbo will help. look for testes1010's mod thread in the "Tuning" forum...he added a CBE and got 10WHP BEFORE he tuned for it.

Habitual Line Stepper Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Numbers seem low because he is a 5eat. "I for one do not doubt you, dude. Your car is fast and an internet legend." -Gire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy T Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 no catback, just stock exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kupkake Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Ahh, and yea that makes more sense now because hes in a 5EAT. Yea i was under the impression a catback add more hp, and a filter helped smooth out the pull/curve Anyway, not bad then for just a DP and OTS Stg2 So the real power gains in Stg2 are seen from DP and UP? Basically a full Turbo-back setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atc5 Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 don't forget that dyno is a mustang dyno...reads a bit lower when comparing to other dynos. still great numbers...prob feels great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing i have more is the Perrin tmic................you will be even more happy Your numbers look great! I have no idea why my tuner thinks it's not worth the money for the power gain from a tune, but I'm happy with the OTS stage 2 so far. I think it's the first 08 5eat on his dyno.

ShadowImg Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 There's a lot more than just power to be gained from a good custom tune. I don't know enough to really explain the details of it, someone like Infamous1 probably could. There's a world more consistency and smoothness to be pulled out of the car. My OTS Cobb was kind of all over the place, and had real issues with controlling boost in any sort of consistent fashion. I would recommend to anyone running an OTS to have a boost gauge and be watching for your boost creeping past 18psi. I was hitting 24psi on the Stage 2 1.03 maps, which is scary.

pierce88 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I gain 2/10s in the quarter when i swapped my stock mid/ypipes for the XO2 ones.... Definitely gains to be had from a catback on the stock turbo. -Pierce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTGT Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 ^Pierce did you break into the 12.XX with the stock turbo yet Are you sure those 2/10's weren't weather related? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierce88 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 ^Pierce did you break into the 12.XX with the stock turbo yet Are you sure those 2/10's weren't weather related? 13.332 Is my lowest.... It was actually 10* colder when i ran before.... Still need to do the up-pipe... Positive thats worth a 1/10.... Idk if the stock mufflers are hurting me at all they says its worth 10-12 chp so that could potentially be a 1/10... They over the summer I wanna do equal length headers which should dip me into the high 12s but we'll see.... -Pierce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous1 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 GST's dyno generally reads pretty low unless you own an EVO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
