North East dyno day?
 

A few of us in the Miata Mob(NJ) are looking to do another Dyno day at ACA Performance in Newark, DE. We're looking to do a Saturday as they said they would open for us if we have ten cars. We're coming up short so who else wants to join us?

We are looking for a date from now through November. Anyone wanna tackle organizing it too?

Our local thread about it http://www.miatamob.org/topics/1312?page=1

OK I spoke with them. We need 10 cars minimum to dyno to make it worth it for them at $60/car. If we come up short it's still a minimum of $600 and we'd each have to kick in the extra.

DATE: Saturday Nov 15th starting at 9am
PLACE: ACA Performance 73 Albe Dr Newark, DE 19702


Who's in I have to get back to him today or tomorrow confirming that we can do 10 cars.

CARS BEING DYNO'D

Paul's 94 daily driver expecting 225-250hp
Artie's 95 w/AbsurdFlow setup hoping for 270hp
EvanK's Squirted 04 MSM with AbsurdFlow turboback, hoping for 230hp
BruceW's 302 powered 93LE hoping for more than his last dyno 225hp/278tq
Johndoe's 94 w/Begi S3 w/gt2560r
Tim's TwinTurbo'd 92 expecting more than 270, hoping to break 300

You know Im in. And Bruce with the V8 miata is in too.

Name a date and I can probably make it. Might drag Newbsauce out as well.

Was hoping you would name the date and handle it

I can barely handle my dick!

Someone get that boy some finer tipped tweezers!

I could maybe be persuaded to slap my shit on a dyner.

depends on if mine is back together by then :(

I'm in, just want to get the new IC installed first ....

I'll go. I want 300rwhp so I can finally ditch this setup.

I'm down.

I'll go for the ride, not to dyno

Skunk's with me so don't give him shit for not posting an intro thread.

Anyone feel like organizing this?

That would be super.:yippee:

I'll try to call them today and set something up for Nov 15th. It's a saturday.

OK I spoke with them. We need 10 cars minimum to dyno to make it worth it for them at $60/car. If we come up short it's still a minimum of $600 and we'd each have to kick in the extra.

in

it would be awesome if I could have my IM done by then....

I'm hoping my IM is done by then too.... Tim??

If you really plan on swapping intake manifolds while at the dyno you are gonna have to pay as 2 cars so that makes it easier for us to make the 10 car min.

I'm out, I have another dyno day and open house that day already

I know this. That's why I asked on the mob whether it's possible. I dont have a problem paying twice. Just wanna see the differences.

You'll have to dyno first. Then take the car out and start the swap. I'll dyno. Then I'll help. Then I'll retune it with you and you can go again.

I'm in.

Saturday, Nov.15th...I'm still running my voo-doo box with 7psi. I could come down though and do a pull just to get some figures, talk miata performance, and support the cause. If this is the same place it was at before, it took me 1hr and 15 min? $60?

That would be ideal. That way we can get a same day comparison of a gutted IM and what kind of power gains/losses it will have on the car with no other changes but the time of day.

yes yes. so are you committing?

if i can find another local to drive up with me im in

sweet, get on that shit. beats the alternative of driving into bridges

i haven't changed anything since the last dyno day... but I do have a water injection setup I could install. it's only been sitting for.... 3 years?

come on already. we need 10 and scott needs someone to convoy with

I am in.

but it's not any fun if i'm not the biggest power maker.

That could be a goal to get my car back together.

Frank

so who am I gonna have to give a hand job to to help a first time dynoer tune his car?

HEY if I go I'll bring your comealong. :giggle:

load a good spark map and the fuel map will take care of itself.

well the spark is what I'd like to tune. Fuel I'm not worried about.
edit: and to be completely off topic anyone know if there is a minimum order for these things "Tyco P/N 173631 for .070" contacts www.onlinecomponents.com"? and how long it takes to get>?

Any more people gonna commit so i don't get fucked footing the rest of the bill on my birthday? Need 3-4 more cars at least.

this dyno meet is def NOT north east..... im north east,
u guys are like mid east, almost south


i had a 600 miles trip to this shit last time

if you just need bodies why not advertise on m.net? might get some douches but eat least it will be cheaper. and yes i would not call Delaware northeast either.

someone a lil more well known over there want to list it?

there's the msm forum too.

u could try clubroadster :bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

I'm willing to pay more to not have those guys show up. Maybe Brain or y8s could make a thread over on m.net

y8s hasn't committed yet.

y8s is a meanie.

So I pulled the voo-doo box today and am dead set on getting my MS to work. If the car starts up, drives ok and doesn't run like a pile of shit; I will be there. The last time I went there I think it was 4 pulls and you could do quick adjustments in between pulls...is this the same way?

Yup. If you need help tuning the thing before getting on the dyno I can probably lend a hand.

If I can learn to tune it, then almost anyone here can.

Big props >> Paul's teaching skills.

Someone mapquest the distance from 39759 to 19702. It's not working for me.

988 miles. from: Mississippi 39759 to: 19702 - Google Maps

Damn. Nevermind... That's wayy too far.

holy shit pat, you were considering it? that's commitment.

Yeah, I was thinking about it, but there's no way I could do that right now with school. But yeah if yall organize one this summer I'm in. MSU is the farthest North I've ever been. I'd like to head up there just to check things out, see what it's like. And this summer I'll have something worth putting on a dyno.

Funny side note- I've sold a valve cover to half the people on Paul's list. :)

Or retarded. Then again, I was gonna fly to Dallas to snatch that 10AE out from under Ben.

Frank

I'm still undecided.

On the one hand I'd like to see how my setup looks on the same dyno I've run on multiple times. Especially now that I discovered my missing spark angle.

On the other, I should be one custom IM richer and don't really wanna spend the cash/time/effort beforehand.

So today is Nov. 2nd. Is this thing still on?

Yes.

Damn, and I just posted a thread looking for the NY/NJ peeps...
Moving back in bout a month, obviously NOT in time for this...(nor is my car ready);
but glad to see a few perf oriented guys up there....

GL w/ the DD...

ps--somebody pm Saml01, he's not too far...might have just missed the thread

Nah, he knows about it. He's just a cheap jew.
