Haha... yeah, it's nerve racking when they give her the gas, but the guys who own/run the dyno are great guys and double check everything, before running.

299.45 to be exact.

Forgot to tell the dyno operator my limiter, so he was letting off around 7,100 rpm, but the power was still climbing.

I added the fuel pump re-wire and upped my limiter to 7,750 now. Def pulls harder than last year. Going back to the same dyno, on the exact day a year later. Same temps to haha.

Took mom to buy a 2015 Focus for $25-26K(She wanted the nice one). Left with a 2016 Fusion for under $20k. I don't know how the hell she managed that but whatever.
