Hey Bruce, I'll be there assuming no rain. BTW, the last time we did this the guy doing the dyno was having some heat and filter issues with his equipment. Is this shop prepared to do multiple runs without any potential equipment issues or erroneous outputs.
Dyno Day in Socal 2010
- Thread starter HeritageBruce
- Start date
HHGT,
This shop is much better equipped than the one we used a couple of years ago and they have not one, but two dynos. They did over 20 cars last time I was there during a Viper Club dyno day w/o a hiccup. My ACR put out 540 WHP btw, not bad for an NA engine. Weather is what I worry about at this point and will be keeping a close eye on the forecast.
Please check back on Friday if rain is in the forecast for a possible reschedule.
Revised List of attendance:
Bruce Li
Eric Johnson
Gary Peterson
Jack Topalian
Richard Shehadey

Due to having a 90% chance of rain on Saturday, the dyno day is being rescheduled to March 6th. Hope those that are having schedule conflicts this weekend can come out and those that were coming can still make it. Can we get a head count for the 6th?

Isn't the Mojave Mile on March 6th?
I know because it's Opening Day of Little League.
I could actually make the 13th (after the game).

No, we are not on this Saturday as rain is in the forecast AGAIN. Damn are we in Socal or Seatle? I'm waiting for another date from DC. Stay tuned...
DC Performance has informed me that they wanted to wait a few weeks to make sure we'll have a dry day. Hopefully April will be drier.
OK boys, looks like it is drying up here in Socal (rained today!!!) and DC Performance is trying again to put together another dyno day. Even though it won't be a GT only dyno day, the price is right and there might be a few high HP cars that would give our GT's a high HP run for the money - McLaren SLR and a few modified Vipers, so it should be fun to see what our gals can do as compared to others.

I'll be taking my car there Saturday not for the dyno runs, but for a dyno tune. Need a few more extra ponies to keep up with KJRGT in the next Palm Springs run. :banana
Here's a flyer and a picture of DC Performance, plenty of room for parking:

Hmmmm. Baseball and 2 parties, but done around 3 pm.
Do they need to take the diffuser off to Dyno the Ford GT's?

It will be my brithday May 1st. I will be getting my pulls in 1st around 8:40 so I can make it back to my party..... Hmmm I am doing the cooking for fourteen peeps; Oh well Happy Birthday to me!
Nope. They only need to strap and cross strap the lower A arms. The trick is to make sure they insert the Wideband sensor deep into the exhaust to get an accurate AF reading.
One more thing Randy, if you want to load a tune onto your car, I have an extra SCT XCAL flash device that you can have for free.

HertitagBruce,
I hope we meet this Saturday; if not and you are that close maybe we can hook up early one weekend morning for Breakfast or coffee. :rofl
Just got a new Whipple installed on my GT, was wondering what HP you have produce with yours? :banana

You'll probably be gone by the time I get there Saturday so we'll have to catch up another time. Maybe we can drive to either Supercar Sunday or Cars and Coffee one of these weekends.
I will be dropping of the GT to get my Whipple retuned as I'm not happy with the original tunes and I'm hoping to pick quite a few ponies on at least the 91 tune. The 100 octane tune on the car now isn't too bad but maybe there's room for improvement as it has been two years since I had the Gen I Whipple installed.
