My car will be there tho, Paul will be driving it down to get it dyno'd for me.

Ha, nothing but pimpin' hard. Maybing adjusting the gain on my subwoofer.

Y8s might be out, something green is leaking from his motor now :(


I think we are meeting around 9am at my house friday and driving straight up to the karting place. Don't forget your helmet. A lumbar pillow ill save your life when karting all day.

I'm hopefully getting a new radiator put in tomorrow.

I was building a vband setup but then the clutch slave cyl broke and I bought a new subaru so that gets my time now, as well as removing all the cool parts off my old suby.

Berrodin by my house usually has the slave cylinders in stock and cheap. Lemme know if you want me to pick one up for you this week. I know the master cylinders go for 50 and change. Im not sure about the slaves.

Braineack 11-10-2009 03:06 PM

Yea. Jes (Paul's GF) is bringing her Laguna and Tim's wife usually comes too.

Mother effer weather calls for rain on Saturday. I'm gonna have to start taping my back window up. Man I really hate driving the miata on the rain.

ArtieParty 11-11-2009 03:47 PM

Only a 30% chance of rain. We had that last time and it turned out to be a really nice day.

TurboTim 11-11-2009 04:47 PM

I think more times than not it's raining on the way down or at least has good chances of rain, but it has so far been beautiful on the past dyno days I've gone to, which is most.

Looks like I will be joined by other half who wants to learn about turboz. Hoping to get my buddy to come as well so he can dyno his stock '99, realize he has less horsepower than an Amish family going to Sunday services, and get off the turbo fence.

saint_foo 11-12-2009 03:19 PM

^cool, if he needs to talk to someone who mulled it over and was on the fence for a bit....look for me.

I just had the Mishimoto radiator installed w/ the stock fans....not a happy fit. At least all seems like it went well.

got a fresh oil change too (Motul 8100). That's something else everyone that's dynoing should consider, along w/ doublechecking lines, coolant, wires, etc. Nothing's worse than seeing a motor blow on the dyno, spew oil everywhere, or whatever else.

the_man 11-12-2009 03:56 PM

He came with me to the last MT dyno day, he just didn't want to dyno his car knowing that as soon as he did, he'd NEED a turbo, rather than WANT a turbo. It was bad enough for him to see some of the numbers other people were putting up.

Oh, and no, still not planning to bring my Miata, so somebody else will have to take the "lowest power of the day" award.

ScottFW 11-12-2009 04:11 PM

I will "probably" make it up there Saturday morning. Won't be dynoing though. I just like to watch. :giggle:

miataspeed2005 11-12-2009 04:11 PM

I got my datalog working and I may have to make my final tunning touches at the dyno. Since I have no time at all lately with school and work. And Friday night I'll be chaging my oil and intalling Mazda comp mm.
I'm super excited I'm gonna pop my dyno cherry

ArtieParty 11-12-2009 05:21 PM

Scott- Don't forget my pins!

I totally would have, putting them out now.

What? I thought that was the point of dynoing your car.
