we could see the flames lighting up the wall and were too lazy to get up.
Besides, we were probably chatting with you guys at the time.

Flames on a dyno...pfft...

i'd almost be disappointed if i DIDN'T see some. It's almost become a typical thing now for every dyno day.


however that one time about 2 years ago when yoshi dyno'd tajabaho's car was pretty funny we would've had our first explosion!

I've never seen people RUN for their lives faster then when we strapped down Tajabaho's car.
If you guys ever saw that car with it's "Taj'd up" nitrous install, you'd understand.

How about as the car shoots flames , Pamela Anderson runs out naked and bounces around .
Would that be unique enough ?

AP Updates

Just thought I'd mention that those of us getting an AP tune should make sure our AP firmware is up to date before Dyno Day. That'll keep MM from having to spend time doing it for us during our turn on the rollers --- unless of course MM has something more recent than what you can download from the Cobb website.

Also, I think I'll bring a bag of disposable earplugs

Idk if I'll be able to get my header on by then  soo if I don't I might be selling it there. I'll bring it with me. Still debating on that.

Do u guys think it'll make a significant gain in anything with what I have and maps and all that good stuff?

it's the word that makes your rosebud pucker when you think of how much more trouble it is to take off a header compared to a midpipe if you're unlucky enough to get a fix-it ticket.
