About the spout removed total timing trick, I set it at 35 degrees of advance rather than the 16-17 that I had and saw no difference in peak hp, but there were a couple more ft-lb's across the midrange.
And yeah, the Mustang Dyne is supposed to read a lower number. Dynos like the Superflow and the Mustang Dyno were designed to do a wide range of vehicle testing, not just please us gearheads!
