Kooks Exhaust and E85 Dyno

Whats going on guys. Today i got my car dyno tuned since installed Kooks Heades, catless exhaust, and E85.
Car did 463rwhp 470rwtq. Is this on the high side?
Car pulls very good though so no complains lol.

Do you have any sound clips? Also how bad is the drone? I’m on the fence between the Kooks full system and building a custom one. Solid numbers! Did you have a base line done?

This is the only video I have. I will try to make a drive by video in the next day or so.
The kooks exhaust sounds good, but it does drone bad in highway speeds. 65-70.
I have the oval mufflers but I'm going to change them for the 3" bullet muffler.
The exhaust has no rasp, and in my opinion it sounds different and better than corsa and borla.

Have you thought about j-pipes or bullet mufflers added where the cats go? I had kooks on my 10’ and added bullets to kill the drone.

It seems a bit high but depends on the Dyno and temperature outside. I have the same mods and dyno'd at 441 whp on a Mustang dyno. Just depends.

It was a mustang dyno. The weather was in the mid 70s*, with 80% humidity. It seems high to meet too.

Well either you have a car that just makes a bit more power or they tuned it all the way to the limit.
