MD/VA/PA Fall Dyno Day and Meet Oct 15 '11
 

Woot

To occur in the month of October. The objective of the dyno day is to determine if I can make more power than GOD. In my case, that means more than my prior record of 280hp on Ed's dyno. Secondary objective will be for Lenny to see if he can make more than 130hp.

The weather should be nice and the roads still warm enough for a fun rally among the foothills of ye old Appalachia. Seriously, there are some very nice driving roads in the area.

So far, this dyno day has a perfect record with no engine deaths in transit to, or on the dyno. Last Spring's (summer) turnout was pretty good even though everyone was sad that I had to leave early.

Put a post up here if you want to reserve a slot and I will update the list.

INFORMATION

PRICE

$50/car ~ 3 pulls with some cool down time between pulls if you want to fuck around with your .msq or quickly swap out a part. The dyno owner is a nat-aspirated miata racer so if you have some interesting part to test he might be interested in spending a little more time on it. No guarantees.

DATE

OCTOBER 15, CATURDAY

LOCATION

York Automotive
300 South Main Street
Mt Airy, MD 21771-5389

TIMES

9AM UNTIL 5PMISH OR UNTIL EVERYONE HAS DONE THEIR PULLS

DIRECTIONS

Take I70 to route 27. Go straight through the traffic light and around the bend and you will be on Main street. Go down main street about a mile until you reach an "old town" area. About as soon as you reach the "old town" area, you will see a tiny sign for "York Automotive" on the left. Turn in alley and park in the gravel parking lot down the hill.

WHO CAN COME

Miatas are first come first serve. If you want to bring buddies who do not have miatas, that will be fine and they can do their pulls last. More the merrier but no jerks allowed. I fucking hate jerks.

I can say without a doubt I can not make it October 1. I am almost positive I will still be in Atlanta at Petit Lemans.

Trackdaze is October 1/2nd... I may have a turbo on by 15th though... maybe

I'll most likely be attending.

Who said anything about October 1?

my car still hasnt recovered from the last event it missed.

maybe revving the piss out of it would cure it.

maybe.

subscribed to say maybe then say no.

Just don't have your Birthday on October 15th.

I should be available to come up that weekend.

but what if scott and I go

My anniversary is the saturday after and that's more important than my birthday. Close!

Then my "maybe" will go up to a "probably". :makeout:

If you come down my offer still stands strong. We can start the morning off by doing shots of islay over the rollers.

I'm down with that...after I get a ride in maximum performance.

I am down for morning shots.

I getting ready for someone to mention "I'm down for karting" just so I can be the first to say "I'm down for farting". That was the funniest shit ever last time!

i'll slap everyone that does a shot of an 18 year old single malt.

and sip the rest.

im pretty sure there's a bottle a JD in my miata. we can shoot that instead.

Hope you had a good one. Now please look into my e-mail cuz I want ABSURDflowism on my car soon... :makeout:

Can we have hookers? :)

I'm down to hang out at the very least, pending availability. Not much reason to dyno, as I don't expect to put down more than 80whp :P

BYOBoobs

Yes but only if you share

There should be a dyno day prize for the drunk first person to fall into the twin rollers and get puréed.

i like to bring pizza. and lars.

Vegan pizza plz! I will cover the delta for soy cheese!

ddd

The date will be October 15th.

Rumors are the Jtothawhat will be there to put down fake dyno numbers with FaeFlora.

(Posting from my phone.)

I totally just got an e-vite.

Guess who still has mt.net shirts and lanyards?!

Hmmm about 4 hrs from Pittsburgh? There is a very good chance I will come, just stuck it in my calendar.

I still have mt.net shirts and lanyards. What do I get for guessing correctly?

I want an mt.net t-shirt

I would look so cool with a shirt to match the sticker on my car... :giggle:

I want one to match the tattoo around my boyfriends

That date sucks, I will unfortunately be back in FL for school for 6 weeks.

Fail Phil.

You could be like the cool kids in HS and skip school for a day.

I guess you will be will be levin us b hind :(

minn can you lost dog tonight?

Unfortunately, I can not. I have a date with a Stoli (as in Stolichnaya booze) booze fairy bunny tonight. I can however, do Thursday night.

i think it's looking like a thrusday date.

I'm in for Thursday.

I will probably be in attendance to hardpark in the gravel and pester people with questions about Megasquirt. Had fun/dyno'd at the last event, but nothing has changed motor wise.

Should have no issues coming out. Freshly turbo'd and ready for a road trip :) Let me meet some fags....i mean fellow miata owners.

in before bash. ha

Yay I can't wait to see your sick miata bra

Found this about Ed's dyno to be pretty interesting

When I compared older plots to a dynojet it's closer to a 12% difference.


Here's two plots. One in November on a dynojet, the second in April on York's DD

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1316802982

DD run @ 14psi
DJ run @ 12.5psi


now when i added 12% it makes much more sense:

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1316802982


I did this based on DC% and tons of previous data I've collected on my setup.

Ill try to bring my untuned shitbox out.

I might be able to make the 15th. I haven't had it dynoed since the spring when I had a bunch of decel issues.

2 things...Who all is attending this shindig? and... Min, is your car gonna be ready or what?

maybe you should check out the facebook group and see who has confirmed.

I facebooked your mom last night.

Just kidding, I don't facebook. But I will probably be at the dyno day and probably not be dynoing, as usual.

I don't fagbook either, so I guess I'm shit out of luck as far as being in the know.

I just checked and as of this moment: 17 Attending -- at least on the facebook event.

I'll show up. after I facebook your mom.

As of right now I'm in. Got a link to the facebook event?

http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php...56351327720596

this work?

I gutted my MAF, did exhintake mod and installed COPs with new plugs.

100 WHP HERE I COME

Yes, it will be ready. Potentially untuned, but mechanically ready. I don't plan to run extreme amounts of timing at high boost so my currently conservative timing at high psi should suffice. As for the meth tuning, until I dyno tune it, I'll probably run the same amount of meth as I have with meth/water mixture.

If the day finishes early maybe I can dyno tune afterwards.

Your shit is not going to be done. I am calling it now.

But it will be done after you come help me put my clutch in on friday at 3am!
