You would have to ask Shaun, 93Pony. I'm not sure if he saved any of it.

I'll double check the log, but I don't remember seeing anything unusual. We were in a bit of a time crunch though.....

Drew,

Thats great that you got your car dynod, but that is one messed up graph. Your car has always had problems - Is this still a continuation of the original issue that you had related to not being able to rev, or did you get that whole thing closed out?

Looks like you have reached the limit of something. My first guess would be vavle control.Looks like the A/F ratio stayed fairly consistent so it seems unlikely to be spark or fuel related. The data log should confirm the health of those.
Not sure whats in this car other than the obvious blower, I'd be interested to see if there was a similar dropoff at that rpm before you went forced induction. How about some blower belt slip?
I'm also guessing this dyno isn't putting a load on the car.
You aren't really expecting it to pull to 7k are you?

Who said anything about a blower?

Very nice car! Sounds like he's got serious skills too.

Seriously though. Could my little racing battery be causing me problems up top? What if there is some sort of problem with the main wire from the alternator? [Confused]

BTW, thanks for the complements guys. Hope I can get this fixed and see what she can really do! [burnout]

Guys, the belt slip comment was poking fun at myself, i don't know the car so when i saw the dyno sheet up in the 400+ hp range I assumed it was blown like most 400hp mustangs.

I knew you were kidding at that point.

But I'm seriously wondering if a voltage drop at high RPMs may be causing this.

What kind of racing battery do you have? I believe the alternator should be giving you your power at those high RPM's though I'm not sure.

Spark blowing out?

Perhaps you are reaching the limit of your heads (porting)? Perhaps hot spots in the combustion chamber? That make a more erratic a/f though.

Computer issues at high rpms?

Just throwing stuff out there.

Maybe not so much as a Drop but more that your demand generates more then your supply can handle? Couldn't hurt to switch out to a bigger battery.
