Laythor, that's great advice.
Once we start getting closer to the event, I'll also post up a list of things you should do to your car to prepare it for the dyno.
Keep in mind, dyno'ing a car is quite a stressful thing on the vehicle so you need to make sure your car is in good shape or bad things can happen.

I'm really looking forward to this year's event, should be a blast!

Jedi: I like your 'no pressure' method of things. Kinda reminds me of the time i got my avatar...

If blueknight shows up - i'll be more likely to pop on the dyno just to show the difference between an NA 6port vs a FI 6port AT. Last time he and I ran on the same dyno he only had me by 3hp about 2 years ago when we were both basically stock. If i haven't lost any compression and if i get all the maintenance stuff i need done then it should give a more vivid picture of the gains to be had.

You forget... All he has to do is wave his hand past the dyno................
There's nothing here to see... move on.
