Re: MCV- dyno day update (Matt Black)
SORRY BOYS, I dont think I am going to be able to make it now. I was planning on it untill a pretty bad back injury tonight. I doubt I will get out of the bed tomm, but if I do, I am sure to be there with you guys. I am really bummed though. If I dont see you guys tomm, then I hope all the nashville guys can get together soon. Have fun, and post of the dyno numbers after. :cheers:

Re: MCV- dyno day update (JR_VETTE)
Hey guys,
Just thought I'd let everyone know that Maggie is okay. Just before I left, I started her up, and she started blowing the pieces of metal out of the exhaust again. When Chris and several of the other guys saw it, just about everyone of them said it looked like jethot coating coming off the headers. The plugs looked fine, and am going to change the oil next weekend(weather dependent). She is running a little better with the tuning I did, but evidently still have a ways to go with that. On the last run I had 6.7 degrees of KR, which was actually down from 8.3 degrees on the 2nd run.... :(
I did have a great time though. Must say I was impressed with Matt and Johns runs with the basically stock cars. Oh, and Chris Marlow with that 348.9HP!!!! GEEZ!!!! Glad everyone could make it. Too bad the Titans lost tonight...

Re: MCV- dyno day update (Matt Black)
haha, well....Actually, that was the stock tune with just a few LS1edit changes to it. I'm going to compare some of my numbers to the ones I got off your car and see if I can find anything there. I'll email the Excel files of your runs later.
In the end....I had a measely 311.8hp and 325lb-ft. LOL, but on the run where she downshifted it spiked to 380hp!! :) That made me feel a touch better.

Re: MCV- dyno day update (JR_VETTE)
Yeah, that was a fun day albeit cool! My numbers were 342.9/333.4 after a little tweak on the fuel pressure. I am still running stock programming.
Chris and Bryan had some really impressive numbers. Maybe they will chime in here with their results.

Re: MCV- dyno day update (JR_VETTE)
I was pretty satisfied with mine. It did better that I expected. I thought the cats would cost me some power but actually I had more than without cats. Same dyno at their old location. That was right after the cam, heads,etc. and I had not not done a whole lot of tuning yet.
Final numbers yesterday were 362 rwhp and 356 rwtq
