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

Kevin91Z · 08-14-2009, 05:48 PM

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.

JulieGTA · 08-14-2009, 06:37 PM

I'd like to dyno soon, it had a small fuel issue, but if Kevin can't make it then n/m.

Kevin91Z · 08-14-2009, 07:45 PM

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

KUNAGUERO66 · 08-14-2009, 08:40 PM

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.

KUNAGUERO66 · 08-14-2009, 08:46 PM

oh and Kevin i've been meanin to ask you, what youthink of a first tpi system, are they good and are they ca legal?

Long Beach Z-28 · 08-14-2009, 09:46 PM

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

1989GTATransAm · 08-14-2009, 10:10 PM

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

JulieGTA · 08-15-2009, 09:06 AM

Thanks KUNAGUERO.
I don't know when I'll be racing again. Whenever everyone agrees on a date!

Burnout91 · 08-15-2009, 12:16 PM

Any Saturday will work for me.

Bill

TA · 08-17-2009, 12:21 AM

How about Sept 5th or Sept 12th? Any preferences?

TA

JulieGTA · 08-17-2009, 01:57 AM

Both of those days work for me.

I can't do 19 or 26.

90-irocdx3 · 08-17-2009, 02:45 AM

I could really use some more tuning on my car, it just keeps leaning out with current custom chip. Let me know when u are available to do some tuning.

TA · 08-19-2009, 02:02 PM

Has anybody made the Street Legal 442rwtq mark yet? Whats the numbers these days? 500hp motors still?

1989GTATransAm · 08-19-2009, 07:55 PM

"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.

JulieGTA · 08-20-2009, 03:02 AM

Wow, a lot of people already interested!

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

I'll need a tune, if there's time.

CaliBranden · 08-23-2009, 11:54 AM

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.

90-irocdx3 · 08-23-2009, 11:58 AM

I will be there my car is sick needs some help being tuned out.

TA · 08-30-2009, 01:06 PM

OK, we're on again in two weeks. I need to let the dyno shop know how many will be coming, so please post if you are cancelling or want onto the list.

Thanks

TA

JulieGTA · 09-05-2009, 03:40 AM

When Julie puts it in drive, just hang on and shut up.

VincentZ28 · 09-06-2009, 12:36 PM

This will be Southern California Thirdgen nightmare

Kevin91Z · 09-06-2009, 05:05 PM

Get it put back together first, Vince, and then I might be afraid of it.

You have a deadline of January.

itsMikey · 09-07-2009, 12:00 AM

just asked my pops(wicketmike) right now and he said that if were not doing anything on Saturday, that we can go and get a chip and tune my GTA on the dyno..so if theres any spots open...i want one :P (maybe?)

You guys keep this BS up and I might have to go back to work on my car.

1989GTATransAm · 09-07-2009, 01:00 PM

Just let them talk.

I'm going to lower the hammer early next year on this fastest car thing.

Long Beach Z-28 · 09-07-2009, 01:47 PM

I hear that this "slickfx3" guy has a very nice combo in his C4! He's also much lighter than us. If Kevin nails his tune...........????

90-irocdx3 · 09-07-2009, 04:28 PM

So what time should I plan on being there it is a bit of a drive from Santa barbara.

itsMikey · 09-08-2009, 05:20 PM

still planning on going...just gotta hope nothing comes up.

TA · 09-08-2009, 08:02 PM

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.

TA

godreject · 09-08-2009, 08:57 PM

im still coming most likely as a spectator though(not sure yet)i've been lazy and i've not fixed some things wrong with my car like injectors and adding my afpr,

TA · 09-10-2009, 08:33 PM

By all indications, another dyno day will be needed fairly soon after this one.

TA

1989GTATransAm · 09-10-2009, 08:47 PM

The sequel. Dyno Day Three.

Burnout91 · 09-10-2009, 09:23 PM

Would it be helpful to establish a 'number-of-cars' cutoff point per session day?

Bill

itsMikey · 09-10-2009, 09:33 PM

hey...am i in? cuz im pretty sure were coming.. =P

lonsal · 09-11-2009, 01:59 AM
