Please bring exact bills as I'm not the bank yo.

3) - when you get strapped on the dyno please pay me $60 cash so we don't have to waste their time having each person pay (BRING CASH, no CC/debit/etc...),
I just looked and I have a $100 bill and a $5 for me and Meg. So I'll need $40 back. Sorry Tom I won't have exact change. oops.

Evan won't be there tomorrow.

I had a blast. Thanks Tom for putting this event together!

Too bad everyone had to leave at the kart track. You could have watched Tom almost lap me.

Pics will be posted shortly.

Uh yeah it was pretty ridiculous having the turbo pretty much seperate from the manifold lol. I try to keep it positive.. last time I dynoed there w/ the greddy I had the fuel pump die and I made 100 hp. At least this time I made 200! lol

hey nice turnout guys. I posted up all the dyno runs if you want to download WinPEP on the dynojet website and view the curves
http://www.dynojet.com/downloads/software.aspx (correction factor STD, smoothing 5 please!)

The dyno runs are zipped here: http://y8spec.com/dyno/nedyno08/

They looked like this:
(Sorry I had to drop some off because you can only show 12, but they're all in the zip file--sorry Tom and Raphael!)

Tom, thanks for organizing this event. I am glad I dynoed the car.

Thanks to Nick, Artie and Paul for changing idle speed and timing to 14 and back to 10. Two dynos at 14 and two at 10. No difference in max torque and hp, not a surprised. No noticeable difference in torque and hp at lower end too…a surprised.

I also got to ride on Nick's car. 160hp does pin you to your seats when under 60mph.

Jes, delicious cookies. Thanks. (Paul please pass along the message to Jes.)

FYI – 4 dynos at 111/112 hp and 104 to 106 ft lb of torque.
