Stock SS/SC WHP?
Alright...so I guess their is no real baseline, cause I've just been seeing alot of different numbers, and their is quite a difference in them....and can I just say, I really do like this forum so much better than the RL forum...to many people that don't understand that when they race people, they usually beat the driver and not the vehicle they are racing....

but certainly numbers will mainly vary upon dyno and settings
dynojet, pynapack, mustang dyno.
where you located at the jersey shore?
after a year of watching, a guestimate average would be 200whp mustang, 215whp dynojet.
those are broadly estimated, but its very rare for us to see a stock ss/sc dyno below 200. regardless of what type of dyno.

I live a little south of Toms River...and unfortunately I have just been banned from the RL forums....I guess I pissed to many people off with actual facts about LS1's...lol...but anyway...so rough between 200 and 215....not bad...cause I know how GM can be when the estimate HP...they alway underate cars....
i've heard that mustang dynos actually underrate fwd cars around the 10whp range, but like i said...that's what i heard. where are some good dynos around the tri-state area? i'd really like to see what i'm putting down before my stage 2.
Well I was cruising around with my friend last night...all he has now is the "air box modification"....it feel like it has alittle more torque now....but he kept with a Mustang GT w/ 4.10's. It wasn't a bad pull at all from 40...

See what I'm saying?
The Law of Physics demands that every car "has a baseline."
So what you are really saying here is that you can not determine the SS/SC's baseline by comparing one person's dyno numbers to another's. But this is absolutely true of ALL cars.
No Exceptions.
Get enough people to dyno their car, and you will always get varying sets of numbers to go along with it.
I've been to SRT Forums, Mustang Forums, Ms3 Forums, Pontiac Forums etc., and you will find precisely the same thing being reported over there. Our cars are no different.
People getting different whp numbers for the same stock vehicle will (as a rule) always produce varying results.
That is because ALL cars are affected by and subject to:
- what type of dyno they used
- where they dynoed their car (altitude)
- and whether or not their numbers had been adjusted for weather conditions
So what you have to do is find out what range MOST of those numbers are falling into.
Most stock SRT-4's for instance, fall into the 220-230fwhp range. In the same manner, most SS/SC's are making about 210-220fwhp.
Hope that answers your question!
