Make sure you get that e-man uninstalled and the AP ready to go before the dyno day.

Alright, seeing as how this weekend is the last weekend before the Dyno Dya Extravaganza, I thought I'd throw some pointers out there for those looking to have a good day on the 24th:

Most importantly, make sure your car is in good working condition.
- I recommend everyone take a look at their spark plugs. Brown is okay, black is bad
- Check your coils. You can test them using a multimeter. <--- instructions
- Clean your air filter. Whether you've got an AEM, MS, or Racing Beat unit, this could make a difference on hp figures. K&N recharge kit does wonders for the RB filters.
- Check your LUGNUTS!! Yup, you read that right. Last year we had a car get on with lugnuts that were VERY loose. Good thing we caught it early, that would not have been pretty
- When was the last time you changed the oil? Oil Topped off?

Just a few things off the top of my head.
