Wayne, since you're here, you put a MSD?? coil in your car, what is that going to do for you over stock coil? I know, a newbie question.

I confirm my attendance at the Tag Dyno with the C3 on Sat Aug. 23. MG62 already signed me up while I was in Nashville. Let us know where you want to meet. I‘ll bring DVD camera/tripod (and cooler). Thanks for arranging.

Count me in too. Is there any interest in grouping some cars with similar setups so we can learn what tuning works best as we go along? For instance, I run a 355 cid with headers and a Qjet.

Hey Mike, are you sold out for the dyno day? A friend of mine would like to confirm his "computer program" 700 / 800 HP, would like to know if you still have room.

It will be interesting to see what the Dyno horsepower results are, as compared with the GTech.

I'm just going to watch. I'm a little nervous about driving the Vette the 300 miles from Cleveland.

What kind of minor 'tinkering' will they do in between pulls?? Timing? Carb? Dist.? What do y'all recommend?

Well for my car I will be bringing some custom tools for them.
1) Large Sludge Hammer
2) Flame thrower
Not sure about what they will do with cars that actually work. But I would be interested to know as well.

Re: Toronto/area Dyno day..update (75Rag)
They can but there is training involved. But depending on the size you can get up to a 50 hp addition. Although you have to make sure you attach the included stickers.
