Find a dyno that is not a dynojet and compare. It can make a big difference.

What in the hell is the Power FC? I can't help but wonder if that's the whole problem.

Ah ok, I thought it sounded familiar. I still have a feeling that it's the problem, and it sure as hell doesn't help that it uses it's own unit and doesn't communicate with a laptop. The timing is clearly off, and it looks like that management has knock deterrant. I wonder if it's sensing knock and pulling back like that, because the graph is choppy as hell and doesn't seem to know what it's doing. [&:]

Ok, what happened was that after 5500 RPM, it would fall on its face. It was running too rich. But regardless it was still faster than 168 by a long shot.

Later that day my mech street tuned it for the remaining power and jacked the boost up to 15psi. It is faster now but im going to take it to a mustang dyno next.

I agree 100%, I have a good idea it is knocking or the boost controller id acting up but I may be wrong though but from all that I have known everytime a dyno jumps around like that I'd focus directly on timing.

Everything after the first gen Apexi Power FC's can hook up to a lap top. However, Im going to have it retuned if this is a potential problem.
