Question?!?!

[kris5597]

how much whp does the tc have stock?

[Binder86]

130 if your lucky.

[kris5597]

really its that low? how come the xd has 128 on the sticker and 119 at the wheels and the tc has 161 on the sticker and maybe 130?

[The_Dalai_Lloyd]

It depends on if you have an automatic or a manual. I think the manual has like 144. Anybody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

[Binder86]

Mines a manual and it dynoed at 132.3 at the wheels

[The_Dalai_Lloyd]

Ok. There ya go. I guess the tC just feels like it has more HP because it has just as much (or more) torque as horsepower.

[Binder86]

the torque is all in the low end which helps in acceleration but the top end dies around 120mph on a stock tc, which isn't bad at all cuz it's not necessary to drive that fast anyway.

[The_Dalai_Lloyd]

HAHA. If only we had more torque for the last 7mph....

[DooFster]

I read it is 160 at the block and 135 at the wheels, but I could be wrong.

[kris5597]

yea thats about right. guy on here i talked to said he got 164 whp with crank pulley i/h/e and etd. dynoed. sounds promising.

[Phlame217]

If you want to open up the horse power, the headers is the main choak point. One of the guys locally dyno'd at 134 stock manual and with a header jumped to 149. I/E put him right at 160.

i have a 2007 and i just got it dynoed stock 153hp to the wheels second run

[kris5597]

that sounds pretty awesome.

[Binder86]

I'm going to be over 300 when i get it back from the shop within a few days. I'll post the dyno sheet

[kris5597]

all that aint much lol wish i was there. i want 250whp. working on getting a custom turbo kit as we speak.

[Slikk]

Mines a manual and it dynoed at 132.3 at the wheels

This is BS .. i need a refund

i paid for 161

($17000/161hp)*(161-132) = $3062.11 in refund .. wait a minuite. how much is the turbo?
...
...
........
(can you tell i have nothing to do?)

[Binder86]

Its a small turbo and since im racing autocross it doesn't need high horsepower, just the ability to spool up fast and get me out of the turn asap

[kris5597]

yea thats what i want. quick acceleration. i never raced autox but i def want to. what kinda turbo do u have?

Don't worry man, your car comes with around 161hp, it is just at the flywheel, not the wheels. :up:

[Krdshrk]

Mustang Dynos dyno high.

It depends on the year tC and the transmission:

'05-06 Manual: ~140-145 WHP
'05-06 Automatic: ~125-130 WHP
'07-08 Manual: ~145-150 WHP
'07-08 Automatic: ~130-140

[mospeedtc]

On the dyno dynamics one at ptuning a stock auto put out 114 WHP
IMO just choose one dyno and get it dyno'd for base numbers than you can compare from there on as you add mods...

[JoshCrane1]

i saw a stock 07' hit 154whp at the dyno shop right before me.

[Krdshrk]

Yes - you need 1 dyno to get a baseline with and then when you re-dyno, use the same one.

I dynoed 137 WHP on a Dyno Dynamics dyno with short ram intake and axelback exhaust.

[Binder86]

yea thats what i want. quick acceleration. i never raced autox but i def want to. what kinda turbo do u have?

Sorry to thread jack. But it's a garret t25

[kris5597]

sweet!!!
there aint no way a stock auto tc has 114 whp cause a standard xd has 119whp and i drove both tc way more pick up and power so that cant be right.

[mospeedtc]

Like I said it differs on dynos. I was there when they did a base auto TC

[Binder86]

And the xd weighs more. I think. A lot of it has to do with the gearing ratios which hel in torque multiplicaton (standard trans only) while the auto trans has a torque conv. which act like a turbine to multiply torque.

[2dot4]

my 06 auto tC dynod 118whp, 121tq on a dynojet - only had a TRD axleback and TRD drop-in filter.

and the 119whp on the xd is on a 5spd, kris.

05-06 tC's dyno 135-145whp with a 5spd
07-08 tCs dyno 145-150whp with a 5spd

Of all the dynos I've seen on 5spd 05-06 tC's they all dyno'd anywhere from 140-143whp. Never seen a dyno on an 07-08, but they're rated at 5-7more hp.

[Binder86]

I have an 07

[kris5597]

yea i do too. but there is a draw back on my 07. when i hit the rev limiter it dont hop it just waves on it and acts like it will cut out if i dont let of the gas. now losing that for 5-7 more whp. ILL TAKE IT.

[Binder86]

The reason it does that is adaptive strategy. the car senses that ther is either too much air or fuel entering and shuts off a component (injector, coil, valve...) which in turn can shut off the car. It's perfectly fine its just a saftey precaution the car is taking.
