Re: New Mid-Atlantic Boss Owner
So I took my Boss to Performance Auto Sport here in Richmond for an impromptu dyno pull. The color printer was almost out of ink so the chart didn't plot very well (I'll post it if I can get a better copy). But here's the important information.
PAS is a performance shop that specializes in Saleen and late model mustangs. The man that built and maintains the multiple-championship winning NASA American Iron 2011 Mustang told me this is the most powerful unmodified Boss he's has on the dyno by a large margin. (I'm assuming open side pipes and Red Key counts as stock). Suffice to say, this was the high-point of my week.
Observations:
Run conditions: 66 degrees F, 29 in-Hg, 27% humidity, SAE: 0.99
Hit 400 whp at 6,500 rpm and held it till 7,500 rpm redline.
Torque reached 350 at 4,300 rpm and held above 350 till 5,500 rpm.
A little bit of detonation in the first pull. I may look at mixing in a quarter tank of 100 octane when I'm at the track as a preventative measure.
