Results after cam install tr230/224
Ok alittle background story first.When i had long tube headers,magnaflow catback,lid,free ram air,i dynoed 332hp and 354tq.Temperature was 103 and it was on a mustang dyno.SInce then i've installed the TR 230/224 .575/.563 111 LSA patriot performance dual valve springs,and hardened pushrods.After a few cooldown cycles i got it dyno tuned on a dynojet and it made 375 hp and 364 tq with the temperature beeing 90 degrees.I don't have the dyno graph here but the curve loked good,just not what i expected.It makes peak power at around 5900 and keeps it until around 5500.I was expecting alittle more power.Next i was thinking about some 5.3 stage II heads.WOuld that be a good idea?I plan on staying N/A.

I dynoed 371RWHP and 360 RWTQ, peaking at about 6200 and pretty much staying there. I was running, Dynomouth, FRA, lid and K&N and the TR230 cam and a basic idle tune, no WOT tuning done. AF was at 13.7:1 .I now have Flowtech LT's and can feel the difference, but haven't dynoed it yet.

What gear was he supposed to be in?From what i remember he did it in third gear.Could it be something got installed wrong?The car drives great,and you can definitely feel the difference,but 375 still seems low.

Your A/F seems fine, so something else really has to be it. You seem down by a good 10-15 RWHP in my mind. What did the curve look? Did the power curve raise slow down at 5900? Did you change the plugs+wires, fuel, oil and air filter, too?
