NOW THAT'S what I'm talking about!!!!! You will find (as I am sure you already know)...that this dyno will allow you to get engines running SOOOOOOO GOOD. Versus the illusion that running your car down the interstate from 60mph-120mph in third gear(which is illegal and UNSAFE) DOES the same thing.
SUPER JEALOUS.,....I WANT ONE ALSO....just can not get myself to pull the 'trigger' on it because I need some other super awesome tools that are higher on the list.
Every weekend hobbyist needs one. I prefer to run real world 60-120 mph 3rd gear blasts to see how well my engine performs.
I like chasing dyno, but do real world for cost savings, the only difference is i run 1320' from a dead stop and use the combination of my weight and mph to figure gains and losses in hp, if I could afford a dyno...
When I can get mine back on the road I want to buy a little time to fine tune the Camino and see what it spits out. Im not far away.
I see a $ making opp coming up
That is cool! The only other guy I know with a chassis dyno at home is Steve 632C2. He absolutely works that dude to find incredible gains and combinations. You're going to have fun!!
so stoked... though Oxana would have at least given me the EYE... :total:... But she was all for it... Love my wife:-)

I wish your posts would magically disappear from my threads, as my post seem to disappear in yours???? In MY opinion, your opinion is not worth that of a ****ant.

Maybe a side income to boot?

Thx,,, yea, I was going to install it in the main garage next to the lift, as I have 3000 sq... but I think it will be to loud and drive Oxana crazy, so I am going to build another attached garage , attached to the first garage, about 500q, and install it there, thais way i will have a barrier for noise into the house..
