Re: Hello

Welcome guys! Shane has been an excellent member of this board, and I think the guys at LSE could use a run for their money. I think a few dual dyno days are in order, and seing as you guys are both going to be up and running soon (with awd dynos, that is), I'd like to spearhead this by offering to put my car on both and see how the numbers stack up.

This is going to be a fun summer!

We are always up for the challenge.
The car should have similar numbers on both dyno's. They are the same brand, they are the same type, they are nearly next door...they should be the same. But I agree that having a comparable car between the both would be nice.
Or are you talking about getting your car tuned at both locations?

I think he is referring to the people tuning them more so than the machine they are on. In my opinion given that they are the same machine basically, I will wager the difference will be whomever can tune cars better will have the better numbers.

Especially with DSMs and some Imports, they aren't the easyest thing to tune by any means.

I know Shane can get every ounce of power out a most cars, its been proven.

Well, we could make it really interresting by having one team tune it on their dyno, keep all equal and drive over to the other dyno, see if the numbers are comparable, and then reset everything, and let that team see if they can get similar numbers (keeping the two tunes secret from the other).

I will volunteer my car for this challenge if everyone is up for it. I have a PLX wideband unit installed already, but I only have an S-AFC right now. I have DSMlink on the mind, and have an ecu socketed and ready to go. So if we were to do this, I'd skip the S-AFC bullshit and see some real tuning action on dsmlink.

Would the various organizations be possibly willing to donate dyno and tuner time? Otherwise I'll throw down for the whole event if everyone is willing. We'll document the whole event with video for those that can't attend, and I'll host the finished product.
