I'm definitely taking off of work for this but i don't need any more proof that my car is slow, so it's a no-go on the dyno. Unless you guys really wanna see my 2.8 make a riveting 140 horses.

Savage_Messiah · 01-23-2006, 01:24 AM

Hm... I'm wondering what kind of an after party I can swing...

We would like as many people as possible to pre-pay, however if you pay now and don't have a car to dyno, we can't offer a refund.

I would say just do your best to get your work done, there is still about 20ish spaces available on the dyno.

seeing that each person gets 4 pulls can we do 2 pulls on one car and then 2 pulls on another or no?

I'm gonna go ahead and say no to that one. It takes as much time (if not more) to load and unload a car on the dyno as it does to make the pulls. Allowing this will limit the number of people and cars that will be able to make it onto the dyno during the day, and that's bad for everyone.

it just takes too long to get the car ready, back it onto the dyno, strap it down and take 2 pulls then take another 10 mins to strap another car down...they are already giving people a HUGE break on their prices they barely break even on dyno days...its more of a meet & greet to get more business in the future.

WayFast84 · 01-23-2006, 03:10 PM

all right Its a good price any way..If my freind agrees and becomes a member Ill pay for his dyno as well....(he thinks hes pushing 300 hp and then changes his number every day)

Well it's easy for him to become a member, just give him the link and tell him to fill out the registration and post up.

What does your friend drive? The Tojan?

That stinks, but like you said we really can't complain about the deal everyone is getting. Was it a time issue, or just a conflict of interest thing with their own tuner?

yeah the tojan

Im getting sick of it really hes always saying its better then it really is..the only real good thing about it is the way it sounds and its handling I used to think it looked cool but I guess now since my bird is painted I like regular fbodys

WayFast84 · 01-23-2006, 03:39 PM

quick question! on third gen it says my car has 150 hp and 245 ft ibs is that to the wheels or to the crank?

That's at the crank...

- Justin

WayFast84 · 01-23-2006, 03:50 PM

This officially sucks!

NJSPEEDER · 01-23-2006, 03:58 PM

that is why we modify them, cause stock = slow

yeah but I thought 150 hp to the wheels was bad...150 to the crank thats like old grandma slow! guess Ill need to use a 125 shot cause theres no way i will get 200 hp to the wheels from a cam, headers and a cut out..

ALLMACK · 01-23-2006, 05:57 PM

HMmmmmmmmmmmmm... I wonder where i would land with a 3.8v6...i might consider it, but geeze I know It would be wayyy less than some of you guys..

a little of this a little of that & the fact that if they do run short on time later their might be that person that says well he did so and so with his car why cant I kind of a thing. Again its not a big deal I could care less about dyno numbers...i made damn close to 400hp and could barely break into the 12's with carteks tune

once it is dialed in your could easily go over 200 with those mods. the biggest weakness in any stock 3rd gen V8 is the cam, they were retarded small.
once it is together it will jsut take a little bit of tweaking of the timing and carb to get it moving a ton better.
