Well, I guess I shouldn't say 80%, but it sure seemed like a lot of last second back outs and no shows.


I feel like crap backing out... How come your TQ was so low?

I have never dyno'd my 8 and I told my wife that I have to come out to the next meet...no matter what! I really want to see the numbers my 8 is pushing.

Anyway...sounds like everyone that went had fun. I hope to meet everyone at the next meet.

Dunno about the torque readings. I think the RPMs were reading a little off on the dyno. Not sure though. Previous runs have put me at around 130 ft-lbs.

hopefully when I get on a dyno, my numbers will be similar. I am hoping for low 190s in HP and 130s in TQ. Don't really care too much. I guess I will find out at the next dyno meet... whenever that is.

I'd really like to thank Chris, Al, Zek, and Eric. They were the muscle behind the scenes making sure everything went smooth and safe!

Let's do this again!!!

Cheers,

Well I'm not sure how "safe" it was when we didn't wait for you to activate the compressor so the guys could get off the dyno, HAHA. No problem though, I had a great time. Thank YOU Frank for allowing us to break your compressor...ok, not us, ME haha. No, seriously though, thank you very much for letting us all come out and strut our stuff, and for such a low fee. And I'm really happy you accepted some of the money too, I felt like shit thinking you were just going to give it back to us, which is what you would have done if we didn't corner you haha.


As for my numbers...

403hp and 309lb/ft at 6907rpms, that is corrected though.
Up here I guess it's just 318hp and 244lb/ft. Frank told me to go by 403 but I was told later last night that it was just 318.

So which is it Frank, did I make 403 or 318? lol

Also guys, remember this is a Mustang Dyno, so numbers are gonna be a little lower than you would get on some other dynos. And when you tell people it was a Mustang Dyno they'll say "oh damn, so you actually have more than that" haha.

Here are some pics I took...

Oh I forgot our cars aren't listed under our screen names anymore. It's a 94 RX-7, the green one with Enkei RPF1s.
