lol... a normal dyno eh?
anyhow let me try and explain jus so you understand assuming you had ur car dynoed w the wheels on. if so this excludes several dynos. if ur wheels were on then its most likely a mustang dyno or it can be several others and ur #'s are common. ie seen many s2k's dyno at this number while on roller dynos!
also what are you doing dynoing ur car at that many miles? its not even broken in yet!
wait a little while like until 4k and then dyno it. also, do you have a dyno plot cause it should state what kind of dyno it is.
i can go on, but one thing to note is that heat can play a big factor when dynoing a car and also were the #s corrected etc.(i sure you don't understand). hope this helps, but in the end these numbers are common.

my guess is that it was a dynojet. they are the most common and the number would have been lower with a mustang dyno as they typically are. i wouldn't be too dissapointed... assuming a 20% drivetrain loss your stock number should be 192 or so...
also, there is an SAE correction factor that dyno operators put into effect when the car is dynoed to correct for altitude and humidity and temperature...

Dear Ricers,
It's a fruitless endeavor to compare dyno results as all dynos are not created equal due to the the many variables involved (weather condition, operator competency, dyno type, etc).
So the question you're asking is kinda stupid.
Sincerely,
WRS2K

It is broken in if it has 1,430 miles..
but not fully broken in. Most motors tend to fully break in at around 100k miiles .
after that, it is it at the motor's peak power.
then it just goes down from there =P
I'm not saying you have to wait till you get 100K miles before you get good #'s.
As your motor grows older and gets more miles, it will become more powerful (although it's not really too noticeable).
Those numbers aren't really too bad though.

You really think having 40k more miles on the car should equal 16 whp? Man I better get driving!

No way is 1400miles ran in! I'd say that 189 was low for a stock S. Re test it at about 10000miles, and I reckon on about 200rwhp which is about right.

I put down 193.92817283 with 4800 miles...
I expect to put down 193.93817283 with another 3000 miles on the clock... At that rate, I can reach over 194.0 at about 200k miles!
I'm going to call Boosted Hybrid and see if I can bolt the car up to the Dynapack and set the cruise control for a few weeks to hit that 200k mile mark.
