thanks Rev: took me forever to format it, etc. I had most of the info typed up on a Google Wave that MM, SRMotorcars, BHR, and I had used to plan out the event but then had fun transferring everything over.

Rev: you're getting on the dyno this year, right????
Roger: want me to add your name to the list? It's going to fill up quickly. Do you have an AP?

I don't think I'm going to dyno it Jedi. I was telling Paris that I could really care less what my car puts out

Roger: The Rev saves the day again! You are welcome!!!

awww, c'mon Rev, you gotta do it at least once. It's fun to see where you stand AND can even help you realize there might be something wrong with your car when in fact you thought it was running perfectly.

example: Newcastle put his car on the dyno last year and was short over 20hp from where he'd dyno'd the prior year. I've ridden in and driven his car, (mod wise we're nearly identical) and I would never have known he was over 30whp below my car.
He talked with MM for a while after we took his car off the dyno and we came up with a few possible things that might be wrong with his car.

without putting it on the dyno, we wouldn't have known.

no, that actually wasn't my intention, I was just trying to give you guys an idea of where you might end up.

I actually have all the results of that dyno day posted in an old thread if you guys are interested. It's funny to look back at it because that was back before anyone was doing engine tuning, just trying to get HP out of bolt-ons. (which one guy did break the 200 whp mark with)
