Default Yes, I bought the dyno ;)

A few of you know this already, a couple of you have had your car on it already, but I'll stop being quiet about it now. I bought the dyno about 3 weeks ago, life's just been such a blur (including a week out of town) that I kept it low profile until now.

We'll still not be doing a ton of commercial tuning just yet, I've got some paperwork and insurance stuff to bog through, but it is a done deal and we'll schedule a dyno day for you local guys as soon as it makes sense to.

Hells yeah, so glad I don't live too far away, having someone with MS knowledge is going to make me feel a whole lot better about having my car tuned. Just a few things to improve upon before I can make it out.

I look forward to running a session on your the new setup. I'm sure it'll be operated better than it's previous owner/operator .

The intake tube is stock, the VICS is still not plugged in, and the exhaust is a cheap crush bent 2 1/4 flowmaster, so there is a couple more hp still on the table. there are also adjustable cam gears that have not been played with yet.

Looks like I'll prolly need cams to really get where I want, in the 140 hp range, one of these days. +50 fuji hp

I'd really like to trade rides, so I'll let you know.

The VICS is supposed to be good for a handful, so you should be 130 or more with it working. What cams are in the car now?
