Gotta Have It Race hits the Dyno!

Posted on 16. May, 2012 by Matt in News, Performance, Videos

A few weeks ago, we saw Gotta Have It Race run a 12.08 in the 1/4 mile. This week, it was time to hit the dyno to see how much power Gotta Have It Race is really putting out!

On Monday, the CJ’s team and Gotta Have It Race visited our friends at In Tune Autoworks and made a run on the dyno to find out how much power the 5.0 Coyote V-8 is really putting out. We came away pretty impressed at the amazing power of the 5.0.

Once we saw the results, we challenged you to guess how powerful the stock Gotta Have It Race is. If you visited our Facebook or Google Plus pages anytime in the last 48 hours, you were able to guess the recorded RWHP, without going over. More than 110 of you made guesses, and now it’s time to announce the winner and the final horsepower results!

Of all of those guesses, only one was exactly correct.

Dylan Seay made the correct guess that Gotta Have It Race made 384 RWHP!

Gotta Have It Race also made a max torque of 346 ft./lb. Both numbers were very impressive for a stock 2013 Mustang GT.

Congratulations Dylan on winning a $50 CJ Pony Parts Gift Card! Thank you to everyone who made a guess!

As we continue working on Gotta Have It Race, we’ll head back to In Tune Autoworks for more dyno runs, to see how these performance parts improve our drag car. Keep checking back throughout the summer to follow the changes, and see the latest dyno runs.

This weekend, Gotta Have It Race is down in Ocean City, Maryland for the Cruisin’ Ocean City event from May 17th-20th, so if you’re in the area, stop by and check it out!
