Talking Thanks Ryan (Vakamon)

I would like to thank Ryan for coming up with & executing the idea of a v-mount set-up on my car!! I've got nothing but great feedback from everyone who's seen it!!
He & davin put in some hard work for a lot of people here,working some loooong hours getting cars ready for the tune!!!!!
They dealt with some issues with quiet dignity & grace !!
Seriously,though thanks again. I meant to post this Sat. night,but I was a little tired!!
Looking forward to getting tuned today!!!
Thanks Ryan!!!
You too Davin, I guess!! J/K

**Cough** Joey for cutting my front bumper to fit the v-mount **Cough**
**Cough** Dave for dropping off the coil pack from ewa beach **Cough**

I keed I keed...But seriously, the fab work from Ryan came out great ... the past 2 weeks, I would catch Ryan just staring at front of your car, trying to figure out how to make everything work perfectly. A tweak here a tweak there. Went on for days...

And also props to Davin, I never seen those two work so hard before. I think Dav said it best "Were being attacked my subarus"

Center Diff issues prevented Jarad from getting some full pulls!! Rear wheel speed is faster than front,due to lack of ABS. Dyno shut down runs @ 4000 rpm.
The center diff reads wheel speed from sensors and adjust torque split accordingly. No rear sensor = Drift mode!!! Good for driving,bad for Dyno.
I think the car pulled around 250hp & 297tq @ 3500 RPM not bad I guess. Feels a lot more responsive though,you can drive it if you want!!

Well, the dyno finally confirmed what you and I always suspected from the beginning....your center diff is ***king everything up. It looks like we have to road tune the car now, huh?

Whats even more crazy is that the Ninja is dropping 300ft/lbs of torque @ 3500 rpm! The Ninja is going to boogie off the cones! Hell yeah, I want to drive it, especially when you install the 285's..
