Well, I had my engine dynoed over the weekend. The dyno was one of the Mustang versions.
Anyway, it measured a max of 181 bhp/154 lbs of torque at the rear wheels! What the?!
This S50usB30 engine has forged pistons and Conforti's CAI w/euro HFM. I was expecting 225 Bhp at the rear wheels!

Can someone shed some light on this. Is this a compression problem? The engine has 9000 kms on it since it was rebuilt.

Thanks in advance.
