KVR Performance is installing a Dyno FINALLY!

KVR performance is getting a new dyno, AWD and ability to record 1/4 mile times!! Best part is it is $60 for three pulls! Tapp charges $150. I get everything from thier(best prices you can find) and even though they are import based the guys are great to deal with once you get to know them. Just thouhgt I would let yall know that Ottawa finally has a dyno for a decent price. Best price auto/KVR performance is in the east end of Ottawa for those who don't know off of Star Top Rd.

I didn't find the older guy too polite, but the younger guy who was telling me the story of how he came from Miami was cool. Is he still there?

Hey guy's, I have been away for a couple of weeks so I did'nt get a chance to reply. The dyno should be in by mid-end of September. The guy there tells me that he will without a doubt be able to tune my car, he has been in the states alot on courses for all of the different car companies. Will the tuning be good?? Well that is yet to be seen, but it is worth the shot, and I will let everyone know if he is useful or not!! Cruz'n, the young guy is still there, he is the one tuning and running the dyno.

Accled, you get that car running yet?? I have to pull my trans tonight to chase down a pesky oil leak.

Lol, it's not going yet. It's run for a few seconds but that's it. I can't get the stock TPI base maps to load. I should be able to drive it into town some time in October, lol.

LOL, I got it running...........only to find another problem. I have cappucino colored oil. I have an internal coolant leak somewhere, either intake gaskets or head gaskets. Any way to tell which it is?
I dumped all the coolant and oil and filled it back up with fresh oil and a new filter and then ran it with no coolant for about a minute to flush the engine. The fresh oil is still completely clean.

Car runs great though, lol. Sounds nice too. I'm gonna buy a Saturn.
