I don't think 14.2 is correct. It's 14.5 psi. See http://xtronics.com/reference/convert.htm

Therefore 0.83 bar is 12.0 psi
and 0.75 bar is 10.9 psi.

 

Hey Dude, your car dyno number has the number of the BEAST. So did you sell your soul to get that number?

 

So 318 at 11 psi and 337 at 12 psi for Baddog. This leads me to conclude that the PFS port is worth 31 h.p.

This is within the realm of believability [assuming that Rikki didn't put a Type R sticker for 20 h.p. and 13 inch superlight wheels on the rears to gain 11 h.p.]

 

This is all real easy.
Take it to an INDEPENDANT shop to dyno and confirm. Curry's is right down the road, and they've got a real nice one.

Post THAT sheet and and you'll shut everyone up butt-quick-like. Sorry, but you can't really blame folks for questioning ANY tuner's numbers if they were posted at their own shop...

 

Thats a good idea but probly not worth the effort. Great numbers man!! Cant wait to get a ride in that beast. Its been a while.

 

If I call them and pay for your run will you drop all the free advertising and name dropping of PFS?
Regardless of whether the run verifies the PFS run.
I would consider this worth it.

 

LOL. You know, if you stopped spewing out all this PFS BS, maybe I would believe you.

 

[SARCASM]I am shocked to read this. You mean to tell me that I am not the only one on this forum who finds Rikki's posts about PFS irritating? [/SARCASM]

 

I am always saddened when someone with the potential for brilliance goes into marketing.

 

wow - someone expresses satisfaction with an unpopular shop and gets 3 pages of slaming, name calling, and finger pointing. Having some tollerance of opinions outside the general concensous is an admirable trait - I think.

*shuffles away, never to return to this thread*

 

i still don't see a dyno sheet

 

put up or shut up.....

lets see the charts

I don't mind someone being satisfied with a vendor but when such a high percentage of their posts harp how great the the vendor is it gets to be a bit old. Kind of like watching Turner broadcasting, fifteen minutes of commercials for every fifteen minutes of programming
I'm suprised Jason has let it go on this long.

 

You'll note I didn't say you were bullshitting, just that plenty of other folks did. I was simply suggesting that this would be the best way to add validity to your claims because people (rightly) are mistrustful of dyno claims from the same source as the car was built by... like grading your own exam. After the cost of a new ported motor, i'd think a dyno pull would be a small drop out of PFSs PR budget. FWIW i've never even paid for dyno time for MYSELF; i'm not that preoccupied with it.

 

Man I don't care what shop he uses, regardless these are impressive numbers. There is no reason for Ryan to lie here, it will just make him look like an ***. He will have dynos and video, I am sure. I think that you guys all give him a lot less credit than he deserves. Ryan knows a whole **** load about these cars. He may have done little things here and there. And who the hell cares that he supports PFS so much? He is just happy that he has a strong car, and you guys would too. But since most of you don't like PFS, you don't want to hear his shop get praise. I know after Demetrious builds my motor and ports it I will be praising him all the time. Just like if someone was to build you a motor and it sucked, you would be bashing that shop every day. So what is wrong with praising them every day for building you a good motor? Just my .02
P.S. I am just trying to say that we are supporting Rikki, not PFS, so just be happy for him.

 

Rikki should be happy. Problem is that he always seems to have a PFS PR agenda. I'm sure any of the other top tuners can pull these type of numbers. The question is will the motor last and what type of support will you get from PFS.

Still comes down to which tuner would I go to? I'm half-way between PFS and KDR. Given that they both are capable of making motors with the same HP, I feel more comfortable with KDR performing and standing behind their work. For some of us, we are going to need a handful of additional unbiased 'Rikki' types to verify PFS's work, reliability, and support.

PFS should leverage their racing experience if they want me and others to come down. How about a driver's school held at Summit Point?

 

what kind of numbers did the IS300 post ??

couldn't have said it better myself

 

I don't want to continue any sorta flame here, but how come alot of peeps don't like PFS? Anywho, good numbers Ryan. Since this has the chance of being true, that would mean that this would be great news for the rotary community! This would only solidify its purpose in the car world .
