2nd Gear Ratio 2.19:1
3rd Gear Ratio 1.41:1
4th Gear Ratio 1.00:1
5th Gear Ratio 0.83:1
So, presuming it's the same transmission... maybe that WAS the problem!
Thanks Derek! I think I'll call Paul tomorrow and ask him if it's supposed to be that way on the automatic too... if so... maybe he'll give me a discount or free retest.
EDIT: Funny thing, if you multiply the HP numbers I got on my last dyno run with the second gear ratio, you get the stock HP numbers for the C32 AMG (354 HP).
At least, through your use of the AWD powered Mustang Dyno, you were able to achieve full RPM. I'm going to try to find one in Los Angeles when I get back home...
I forgot you are running a auto trans... My previous post may not apply to your car... I have no experience with them on a dyno...
