More than likely, I will have to meet you guys at the Pro Shop. See you there at 11 AM. BTW if it could be arranged, I would not mind being one of the first cars to dyno. Daipers need to be changed. No not mine.

you are always welcome rishie! Just come by, it starts at 11am and will finish... who knows when. N Rider dropped out so there will be plenty of time. So I to my understanding the price is $60 but i'll talk to them when I get there.

Ever, you can work sunday no prob. the dyno is on Saturday!

They kept stalling out the cars, and they were having problems registering data from the cars just before 8k rpm. Waste of $60 imo.

So on your second try you were able to get 176hp @ 7000 rpms? I was comparing our results on your first run and we were similar at 7000rpms at around 167hp. Between the RF-interference and that 10hp descrepancy, it was a waste of $60.00.

Silvere8's result from 5000 to 6000 rpm shows a consistent +20hp offset compared to the other results. I think it's the racing beat cat-replacement. I will try that modification next and rely on my fatbutt dyno this time. :D

Yup, the second attempt pulled 176. They used jumper cables for better ground, but there was still that problem
