My engine is back in my car, so we will be setting up another dyno day in a few weeks.

All those interested, get your projects ready and post up here if you want to attend.

Kevin will be available to do the tuning.

It will be at our local place in WESTMINSTER.

 

Well I will be getting my transmission rebuilt this week and before I get my new engine in ,sooner or later, (probably later) I would like to get some before numbers. Let us know when.

 

If it will be anytime OTHER THAN the weekend of July 25th, (Aerosmith & ZZ Top July 25 in Vegas!) please count me in for a tuning session. Thanx!

Bill

 

I might be ready in a few weeks, but getting any rapid progress on my projects is problematic while working 6+ days a week.

TA

 

I'll be there. My car is in bad need of a tune.

 

Maybe, trans is in ..........

 

i will most likely be there also, if nothing comes up at the last minute

 

What's the costs involved for tuning on "Dyno Day"?

 

Wow! A lot of replys. I would like to get my mid range redone.

 

Have you given any thought to lip-o-suction.

 

I'll be there with one or two camaros for tuning, what is the cost per car? I'll probably bring one FI and one carb camaro.

 

wow looks like kevin will be busy il be sure to arrive early, i'l be bring my 91 rusty, whats the approximate date, i have a few parts laying around i must install. come on 200rwhp lol

 

 

Have you given any thought to "lip-o-suction."

Are you volunteering?

 

DOINK!!

 

Im not there yet, but Im working on it 24/7

 

Where exactly is the "local place"

 

The local place is in Westminster.

I'd like to dyno and see whether or not the fuel issue was solved, and if the numbers I got at the Invasion were due to just driver error.

 

With all the interest maybe a 2nd dyno day would be in order.

It seems we always get a lot of no-shows. Now that I've said that, they'll all show up at once.

TA

 

thanks for the info, now just need a date to save

 

I'm also interested. But whats the cost?

 

I know this will sound stupid but wat is Dyno Day??? What happen's over there?? (i barely became a member of thirdgen.org lol)

 

Dyno Day is a day where Kevin's shop opens it's doors to our cars for tuning and dyno testing. As a group, we get discounted rates or so i've heard.

 

Oh yeah? thats cool. Thanks for tellin me

 

Its not my shop, its a shop in Westminster with an in-ground dyno that we use.

The dyno time is around $75-80 an hour. If you've paid me for a chip from me before then my tuning time is included (tips are appreciated). If you havent bought a custom chip from me before then we'd need to discuss that before hand.

 

I'm planning to be there. When is the date? Was this posted on both boards? I thought I replied already, but don't see my post. The Firebird should be ready for it's 500 mile oil change by the time of the dyno day.

Lon

 

Any further schedule developments?

 

It'll be sometime in August but we dont have a date yet. Any suggesstions? The first is our club meeting, so after that.

 

I leave for college August 19, so if it's after that date I won't be able to make it. I hope it ends up being scheduled before then!

 

OK, how 'bout the second?But seriously folks, I'm anxious but I can work with whatever fits best with the group.
Bill

 

How about Aug 8th? I'm thinking if it takes about an hour to get each car loaded on the dyno and tuned, we will be limited to 8-10 cars. I definitely need to get the GTA done, but was hoping to get Don to swap me to speed density beforehand...

TA

 

August 8th works for me. Anyone else have input?

Bill

 

That would work for me.

 

With this many cars I think I will wait until the next Dyno Day. As long as that is before Famosa.

 

OK guys (and gals), I spoke to Mark @ MD: we are go for 9am on Aug 8th.
Baseline dyno run is $60
Dyno runs w/tuning are $80/Hr, and can be broken into 1/2 hr segments. Plan on an hour minimum if you are tuning.

We need to get a head count. Please add your name if you want dyno time on Aug 8th. If you are just doing a baseline run, please indicate that.

i want in for dyno and tuning, but i can also wait until next session if theres a crowd. Either way i'l be present just in case people back out..... now i just need to fix my exhaust leak

 

crew chief?

 

There are people who need a dyno tune more than I do!
And maybe I can't get the whole day off (yet).
MAybe put me on the end of the list? I can also wait til next time.

 

My setup is pretty mild, so I'm going to say 250rwhp after the tune. Now on the nitrous...

 

I might be there. With the mods in my sig, do you think a tune would help? Thanks guys.

 

Count me in for a tune.

If you have done anything to the intake side, even a high-flow air filter, you will be amazed what a good tune will do. If you haven't, you need to.

TA

 

I have the stock intake and filter. I was thinking of going with an SLP intake. Does K&N make an intake for my car? Thanks for the help.

 

they make a filter, probably an intake too but I don't know about that.

 

What happen to Kevin? I sent him a PM Monday and haven't heard back from him. Also haven't seen him on the boards in almost a week.

 

K&N makes only a drop-in filter, but K&N's are low restriction at the cost of not filtering very well. SLP used to make 2 different intake kits for the F-cars, but I know at least one of them is out of production and no longer available. The have been discontinuing 3rd gen stuff to dedicate their resources to fourth gen and New 5th gen Camaro stuff, which sells much better.
