Ok now that the knock issue is resolved (bad meth) and Brad is close to the end with the tuning. I'll be bringing the car to a local dyno shop soon. They use a Mustang dyno so the numbers will be about 10% lower than a dynojet. I'm just curious if there's anything I should do maintenance wise prior to dynoing the car. I'll be changing the oil and checking the sparks plugs. The plugs have less than 2000 miles but I wanna check to see how they look. I'm not sure if the bad meth caused any issues to the plugs. If there's anything else I need to do please let me know. I'm only doing 3 runs so hopefully it lays down some good numbers. Thanks for looking!!!
Don't know how many miles are on your current fluids, but I would think about changing the PTU, RDU, and transmission fluids if they have 30k or more miles on them.
How many miles on your SHO? I had both front wide-band 02 sensors changed prior to my DYNO-TUNE!.
IMO Spark plugs are a MUST!!!!!!!!
I would tell the shop not to bother putting an 02 sensor in the tail pipe or using the rear 02 sensor bung for their air fuel ratio readings to incorporate in your dyno sheets...I see many shops do this and the air fuel ratio's they display will be wrong because you have cats...You would have to use the primary 02 sensor bungs and obviously you can't do that.
Also you could ask them for the raw run files and there may be a program you can download from mustang dyno to view the runs like with the dynojet software.
Good luck and wish you were on a dynojet but oh well..I'm not really familiar with how the mustangs read.
I would guess your car on a dynojet would be 400-430whp/480-530wtq....Wide range I know but it's just a rough guess.
Make sure you confirm the rollers are mechanically LINKED and turn off advancetrac if you have a PP!!
When the rollers are not mechanically linked you use the clutches in the RDU to spin the rear rollers...It's hard on them

I'll check on everything you mentioned. I'm gonna datalog the latest tune tonight. If everything looks good let's go up one more time then stop. Brad thanks for everything! If your running a tune you need to try one of Brads. My car has never pulled this hard. I promise you'll be extremely happy...

The NGK LTR7IX-11 (6510) are one step colder than the Motorcraft/NGK -SP-534 OEM Plugs preferably gapped @-your Tuners specs and both are high quality with its precious metal plugs,Best of luck on the Dyno. Z

I'll second that! I'm very pleased with the tune I got from Brad.
