It never fails to amaze me how some people live in a proper deluded state..

Did you know you can tell the HP of a car by looking at the engine?! And that a stock 90s Mustang can be tweaked up to 3000HP?
Yep, your post to Farber looked pretty sarcastic to me.

Well at least it seems like you're starting to learn something. Good job man!

Edit: had to add all that sarcasm in a quote.

dude, can you read?! I said, you can tweak a stock Mustang to..... it was sarcastic anyway, got it? lol

Once again, it's all very cool, let us know when your dyno test results are available, ok?

I read exactly what you said. You tried to make a jab at something you clearly don't know anything about it.

I will not be putting my car on a chassis dyno. 2000HP cars are hard pressed to not light up the rollers. Please take this information in. Again, you may learn something.

oh it's 2000HP now? It was 2500HP some posts ago! Man that Mustang of yours is crazy!

So now it's so powerful we can't actually measure that bad boy uh?

Seriously now, I'm sure your car is a beastie on a drag race, but claiming HP which in reality are just a guess is kinda hard to take for good, no matter how experienced you are, don't you think?

For the love of god please read this for the final time.

A 2000HP car is hard pressed to go on the rollers of a chassis dyno. So one can conclude from there a similar car built for the same series of drag racing pegs a dyno with a single turbo that a car with a very similar build but with 2 turbos instead will easily make an additional 500 HP. So to recap. At 2000HP you're lucky to get any sort of accurate chassis dyno run. About the only thing you can do is set A/F and timing. HP numbers will be skewed. But I use a dual wideband setup and a FAST acq setup to tune my own car with. Meaning I don't need to spend money on a chassis dyno for the only thing I need it for. I'm not in the least bit worried about the HP. Combinations like mine have been running around for well over 5 years now. IE - HP numbers will be similar without a shed of doubt.

Here's a SSO car going to the drive through at burger king with snow on the ground. I will drive it on the street when everything is setup. These are very tame cars until you step on it.

Edit: forgot to mention this was in Detroit. Not exactly a small city.

And that's what you don't seem to get yet. You don't tweak a stock mustang at all. The only thing left on the car that's mustang is parts of the unibody.

That's like saying you tweak John Force's NHRA mustang funny car and say it's a mustang. The only thing mustang about it is a word that says mustang. Clearly you're are unable to comprehend much of anything.

I'm sorry, but talking to someone like you is a complete waste of time. I do hope that you gain some sort of automotive knowledge some day. Maybe you can get away with stuff you type here because most people on this forum aren't gear heads/know much about cars and/or racing. But to say some of the stuff you say here on a car enthusiast site, you would get laughed out of the room by every body there.

hey I'm no engineer but I figured as much thank you, I was just pulling your leg (again, please do refer to the definition of sarcasm I provided you with some posts ago). So your Mustang is in fact not a Mustang, it's... what is it exactly? Ah yes, it's a car you've built yourself!

I'm sure that if we went on an automotive forum and you claimed you need no dyno test to know how many HP your car produces, because you know by looking at the engine, the one that gets laughed out of the room will be you, Charlie.. in fact you know what? I'll show this convo to a couple of automotive forums I'm subscribed to, we often share the sort of comedy you produced for us here today, thank you!

It's like saying: "Hey I'm the finest dancer...in my mind".. I mean don't you really really see how ludicrous your claim is?

uh and to wrap this up, I'm done with this for real, you made your point, I made mine, happy with the "agree to disagree" finale here..
