Dyno Test - 712HP 2011 Mustang GT 5.0 - Dave Rochau Master Turner

Description

www.motivamotorsports.com for more information. On April 14, 2011, Dave Rochau, owner of Motiva Performance, placed a 2011 Mustang GT 5.0 on a Dynojet testbed to test the performance of a newly installed Hellion single turbocharger kit. The test generated 711.67 HP at the wheels and 756.57 torque -- a significant improvement on the Mustang's stock 412 hp. The Hellion turbo's performance was enhanced by Dave Rochau's tuning of the Mustang's independently programmable intake and exhaust cam timing. Motiva accomplished this using a computer program exclusively developed by Motiva that reverse-engineered the computer code controlling timing within the Mustang's electronic control module, allowing the after-market turbo to interface seamlessly with it. Motiva and Rochau are the first to get inside the computer brain of the engine that Ford will be using in the Mustang for years. The April 14 test was limited by the Mustang's fuel injectors and fuel pump. Essentially, the Hellion turbo outstripped the ability of the fuel pump and injectors to deliver fuel-air mixture to the turbo. "This is going to be a really fast car" when the pump and injectors are upgraded, Rochau said after the test. Since the break-through in cracking the code of the Mustang GT 5.0's ECM, Motiva is closing on its goal of delivering 1000 hp from a single-turbo equipped 2011 Mustang.
