I get alot of practice on my dyno. Whenever I get bored, I strapped my car on the dyno and made 1/4 run. Japtrix has the exact same dyno I have so I'm familar how everything works. The accuracy on the 1/4 mile simulation is suppose to be within .05s from real life. I bogged a little because I wasn't expecting the tires to hook this well, other than that, the mph and ET should be close to real life (at least the 1/8)

simon i think you should have steve make a pass in your car to see what time it can get in the quarter.

yes I am very fortunate and grateful I got to drive home as opposed to being towed home with a towel and a Kia SUV.

trust me moose I know that feeling, has happend to me twice in a row in one year. lost 2 motors on the dyno. (knocking on wood) have had my current setup for 2 years and counting, no problems. other than driving with a blown 60-1 for 2 of those years t70 now baby.

Warning what you are about to see may be extremly graphic to some viewers, remember you have been warned



















just last month.

Yeah, but that right there looks like a mechanical failure and not a tuning issue don't you guys think?

Yeah but a turbo wheel fin failure like in that pic? other than overworking that turbo, dont know what else would cause that? Something physically hitting it causing that disaster?
