Who would be interested in a dyno day?

Who in norcal would be interested in dyno day? Let me get a roll call.

Price would be like $40-60 for 3 pulls. Depending on the response, I'll go talk to the shop and see what price we can get. It'll be on a dynojet.

I'm thinking of couple of shops in Newark/Hayward area. Let's see the hands.

Interested, but my cars getting dyno tuned right now. I would do it just to see what I'd get on a dynojet (my car's being tuned on a mustang dyno), and to see the other ppl out here and what they pull. If you're flexible on having a dynojet and would go with a mustang dyno though, I'm sure my friend's shop would love the publicity. If the tuning goes well I'll post about him. Its a new shop.

LOL, you just give me some time.

Well, I'm not gonna be setting any dyno days with only this level of interested. Just forget that the subject was ever brought up.

I want to use nitrous (150hp NX wet shot) and check what my a/f ratios are.

Did you pass smog on Monday Jason?

How many do you need to get this dyno day going? I can probably get some of the Buick GN guys on the band wagon and maybe Chris Chow and his 1800hp+ twin turbo Chevy powered Buick GN. He got bigger turbos as 8.10@170mph apparantly wasn't fast enuf from last year.

I'd be in if I can set up a tuner for my pfc. Has anyone heard from Getto Dave lately? He seems to have dropped of the face of the earth.

If you are not allowed to tune on the dyno, it's worthless.

I wouldn't say it is completely worthless .

It is nice to see how accurate your current tune is... without a WB02 readout printed with the dyno sheet the likelihood of this happening is slim.
