Re: Dyno Day 2 (The Sequel)
cool i woulnt mind having my car on the dyno again, so i may fix some issues and see where my numbers are now,how soon will the next one be ? maybe next time around i'l wear a dust mask it seems all the smoke inhalation made me a little sick, 6 hours of smog, carbon and raw fuel are no longer good for your health

I need to save up my money before I can do that again. Unless you can find 1 or 2 people who need new chips.

Julie, I meant I might not bring and dyno my car. I'll always be there to tune other people's cars.

Hey Julie, when you gonna take the car out to the track again, I wanna run somethin similar to your setup, except maybe stock heads, and for sure some tpis runner, I like how they almost look stock, I hope you break into the 12's.

Hi Troy,
Please let me know if you need another car to fill the dyno sched. I'm not planning on doing any tuning, just a couple of pulls to check on how much power I'm giving up through my drive train.
Thanks

Re: Dyno Day 2 (The Sequel)
I was going to do it when Kevin was ready. I just need to get it done before the next time at the track. I think Don may want to make another dyno pull when he does a few mods. So I will do it with that group. Allen

"Has anybody made the Street Legal 442rwtq mark yet?"
I'm more into horsepower than trying to find how much torque I can make.
My car already roasts the tires. I keep trying to kill off some torque and trade in for horsepower. Seems like I gain in both areas.

I have no experience with those. Allen has the base manifold on his car but not the plenum or runners.

Re: Dyno Day 2 (The Sequel)
That's cool Allen. You know how it is, what ever you like and which ever you need. You probably figured out what my car was about. Just to spend some money, go racing for my first time ever and do my best to smoke them tires. The car has a good starting point with what Don built. Yeah some things went wrong, so he was correct probably about the pistons. I been dosed with what was needed. You know what I mean there. right now I cant even start the car, Ive seem to miss place me keys. I'll be able to get another set. Ivan tuned up the car several months ago and really most likely has it closer where it should pass smog. Enjoy the Dyno Day every one.

Festivities start about 10 AM. I'm having a hard time getting a good count but it looks like 6 or 7, which is plenty, we'll be there all day at that rate.
