Default Dyno Day

Rick, just wanted to publicly express my gratitude for putting this day together today. One of the hottest days of the year and still 18 cars put on the dyno at two pulls each. Nick and the guys at AGP Speed & Custom in Newmarket are great guys and certainly knew what they were doing around the dyno. Nice variety of cars too, 3 Corvettes, all as different from one another as they could be, bunch of Mustangs, a crazy hp. supercharged Firebird, 3 Caddy V's, a few others neat cars and of the course a screaming Porsche GT3. I don't do a lot of events, I'm glad I attended this one. Thanks again, Peter

Your welcome Dad.

All in all it was a great turn out. Had 2 no shows but that's normal. Your car did very well and is very clean!

Glad you enjoyed yourself. Enjoy the night!

Mike, don't if the photo will be legible. Details 290.81 hp and 297.86 tq. Not bad for a 19 year old stock LT4 with 38M km. especially considering outdoor temps & humidity. Probably close to factory #'s of 330/340. Nothing like the C6's & C7's but will keep up with traffic .<br/>

If there are to be troubles, THIS is where/how you want to find them Mike.

Plus, it's a helluva lot of fun standing beside your ride listening and watching while it races up to, I dunno 100mph?

This was mine last year after replacing the disty with an MSD billet tach drive and a bunch of other mods. Needed to be sure the timing and jetting was good, too. Sure screams! (turn it UP!)

Your car sounded great. The dyno didn't like the spray with those tires you had on the car.

Thanks Rick. I'm not sure about the tires. It was really rich on the nitrous hit. I think it was such a short test that I maybe should have purged it a bit more.

Just a very rich nitrous run. I run it rich any way but I just don't think it was at wot long enough to get a full hit of nitrous.
