It wasn't that bad. After the trial by fire yesterday, I'm pretty much a pro with the thing

I still expect a road-tune when I come in for the 2.5L hybrid on my 04. Waiting for the motor to go still @ 158k miles.

I swear if a 1.8T gets on that thing before me, I'm going to be blowing some turbos up. I SWEAR IT!

Don't worry Rami! I think considering how often you come by the shop, you're almost guaranteed to be one of the first on the new dyno!

On a side note Ed, I just checked out a motorcycle dyno. It looks like it's just bracing for the bike on the front wheel to keep it erect and straps in the back to keep the wheel down, so the rider doesn't have to deal with anything.

Oh I wish I still had my first Subaru.... 1984 Wagon GL hand me down from dad.... probably 85whp tops. It took a few miles to get up to 80MPH That would be hilarious to put on a dyno.

lol, would almost be as bad as a geo metro automatic with A/C. Those cars couldn't get out of their own way.

Slowest car I ever had was a 78 Mercedes 240 diesel. Took all of airbase parkway to get to 80mph! I could rev that car up all the way and dump the clutch and it wouldn't even chirp the tires

That would probably be perfect for the "break-in"

This is another customer that I tuned over a year ago. The engine has 75k miles on it and it was time for a clutch. We did compression/leakdown test before doing anything else, and the results were absolutely perfect. The customer then decided to add in a header/UP combo and re-tune for the new mods. The results were awesome. 290whp on 91 Octane on a stock intake box is really impressive. The car ran very smoothly and is nice and quiet all around. This is a great mild setup!

Hey Ed,

Do you still have my chart on file? Would like to get a digital copy of it if possible. My 4 year old got ahold of the paper copy and colored a few more lines on the graph.

Thank you,
Derek
