$70 to get tuned on the dyno?

[QUOTE=Jerm707;3480234]$70 to get tuned on the dyno?[/QUOTE]

no, he said $70 for 3 pulls on the dyno.....he didn't mention anything about tuning.

any specials on road tunes that day??

Why must I work on weekends! I haven't been to the shop in so long!

[QUOTE=hYpE-R-29;3480242]any specials on road tunes that day??[/QUOTE]

No tuning that day... just power baseline pulls ;)

Come on .... you liked the boom boom boom!!!

Be fun to see what the Justy or alltrac puts down.

[QUOTE=queeg9k;3480302]Be fun to see what the Justy or alltrac puts down.[/QUOTE]

It would be fun to bring the Justy's and do a double-digit-dyno competition. It would not, however, be fun to drive a Justy to Fairfield. The last time I had my old all-trac on a dyno it put down 326awhp and it was under 200 in stock trim. It would be funny to see the difference in power in FWD and 4WD modes with both cars actually, though it's much easier to put the Justy in FWD.

I have always wanted to dyno a Justy since both of mine have had this weird power "surge" at 4krpm and it would be cool to see if that's real or I am just imagining it.

Heh, I wish I had the RX street legal (need to put EGR valve back in and get it smogged) to compete with you! I doubt I'd get over 75HP with the current engine.

I'd be down to get some baseline numbers on the girl. Hopefully I'll have some more miles on her by then.

Ok... so let's get a list of people who are planning on attending.

-- Ed

I can be down for this, since I'm missing the other dyno day in Feb.

Ok guys.. I started up a list. This is combined for members here and facebook. If I have you double listed, please let me know!

Thanks

Damn! I wish I can have my turbo kit installed by this time! I may drop by just to look at the cool cars on the dyno!

[QUOTE=klenboy;3483442]Damn! I wish I can have my turbo kit installed by this time! I may drop by just to look at the cool cars on the dyno![/QUOTE]

turbo kit for what?

-- Ed

Is this limited just to Subarus? Can I bring my Stealth TT (Mitsu 3000GT VR4 cousin)?

[QUOTE=LxJLthr;3484265]Is this limited just to Subarus? Can I bring my Stealth TT (Mitsu 3000GT VR4 cousin)?[/QUOTE]

Sure that's not a problem. We will likely want to run it toward the end of the day, however, so we don't have to re-set the dyno wheelbase too much.

-- Ed

[QUOTE=EQ Tuning;3484231]turbo kit for what?

-- Ed[/QUOTE]

My '09 Civic Si. Just received the kit a couple days ago. Full-Race EFR 7670.

wooohh!! :D

I bet that'll make some gains! ;)

Understandable; in that case please add me to the list :biggrin1:

Would also like to join if possible. I have a 3000GT VR4

Yeah I'm sure it will! Looking forward to putting this thing on!

Sure but you'll have to wait till the end of the day as well.

Thanks

What do you guys think would be a safe number of miles to dyno? My WRX just ticked over 900 and I'll be hitting 1k and doing an oil change this weekend with motul 8100 eco-energy 5w30.

By the 15th I'll probably be at 1500 or 2000 depending on how many "trips" I decide to take. Too early?

Should be fine
My 07 sti had 500 miles and then indid an oil change and brought itntonget protuned from gst eons ago
Way better than the crappy lean tune sunbaru had on those my07s back in the day

I wonder what the wife's going to say when I tell her I'm going to a dyno day on valentines weekend lol

updated the list. If you're not on it and planning on coming, please let me know!

-- Ed

Sounds like it would be fun...I would want to dyno my Forester XT and my husbands' 510. What kind of dyno are you using? Mustang? Dynojet?

Put me on the list!

[QUOTE=Queen Jade;3485075]Sounds like it would be fun...I would want to dyno my Forester XT and my husbands' 510. What kind of dyno are you using? Mustang? Dynojet?[/QUOTE]

We use a Dynocom dyno which is similar to a Dynojet. I also have calibrations to make it read like a Mustang dyno for those who prefer those numbers.

Thanks
-- Ed

I saw a post from the 350Z forums that compared Dynocom, Mustang, and Dynojet. Dynocom read 340 WHP while Mustang was 306 WHP and Dynojet was 311 WHP. What correction factor are you using to convert Dynocom to Mustang?

Jim

We use a .85 CF to bring it down to real mustang numbers. The mustang in your comparison sounds like its a bit higher reading.

Thanks
-- Ed

Is this a coincidence that this is on my birthday and I just got a new sube? I think not :peace:

[QUOTE=SubieKid707;3485969]Is this a coincidence that this is on my birthday and I just got a new sube? I think not :peace:[/QUOTE]

I planned it just for you ;). Shall we add you to the list?

-- Ed

I'm going. my TD05H-18g and all upgrades are done and the tune is almost done. 2012 forester XT

should i come with my kayaks on or off? huehuehue

Ed,

Still in the air if I can make it, but its in my plans. After seeing what the FXT does on a mustang dyno I would like to see what she does on yours, then I have a good baseline.

[QUOTE="EQ Tuning;3486048"] I planned it just for you ;). Shall we add you to the list? -- Ed[/QUOTE] Count me in

I'm out. Other plans were made for me :(

Im out as well, will be going out of town

[QUOTE=JimVR4;3486292]I'm out. Other plans were made for me :([/QUOTE]

The proper answer to that is "sorry, I have plans already and have had them for a few months. Now get back in the kitchen and make me a samich" :rofl:

[QUOTE=Overbear;3486412]The proper answer to that is "sorry, I have plans already and have had them for a few months. Now get back in the kitchen and make me a samich" :rofl:[/QUOTE]

+ 1


Not sure if I am going to make it yet although I will rsvp, but I'm a special case as I won't be eating, or dynoing, just hanging and then some go karting.

what should i bring for the bbq?

No worries on bringing anything. We have it a covered :).

Thanks
-- Ed

bump cause it's in a few days

I'm out. My kid is sick. Don't want everyone else getting sick :(

Hey Ed, do you guys keep ooooold records of dyno runs?... aka sometime between 02-05? I'd like to do a dynorun and compare it to what it was tuned at, way back when Subydude/wheeldude owned my car (02 wrx wagon). Still running on the same tune, btw.

Eitherway go ahead and add me to the list.

tomorrow!

We didn't have the shop in 02-05 ;). I was just road tuning back then so I wouldn't have any dyno records.

Thanks

See you guys tomorrow!

Thanks Ed!

Thanks everyone for coming out. It was a low turnout, but that gave us a chance to chat which is great. Anyone get a shot of the GTR lineup in front?
