Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!

Awesomeness! Great numbers! The motor is still tight and new, Now go out and whip that horse a bit so you can free up some more horsepower. ;P

Yep, confirmed the X is a great road tripper, On my DD, you numbers on the mileage are identical to what I experince. One thing I did note though my 70 mph is the sweet spot for optimum mileage. (27 mpg)

As far as the numbers game goes on the dyno between cars, different days and different conditions, lets just leave it at that. Bummer Kracka did have a baseline to see how much power he gained, but timing is sometimes a bitch. Glad you were able to show off the new ride while in MN, wish I could have had a chance to drive it before you are gone. Have a safe trip home.. see ya in the SB.

Luckily it's an easy drive and I'll be back. Sorry I forgot your antenna on Thurs night, Scheides has it now though so you can grab it from him whenever.

Pretty much a straight pipe, so fair guess.

Love the Perrin, but hating the fact that they used powder coating on the Stealth model. I might get an ETS anodized in black and sell the Perrin (assuming they send me a new one under warranty).

Once again, you basically have no exhaust and you can hardly hear my car. I was even running an HFC at the time...

Wish I could have made one of the events. My schedule blows at times.

If you get a new silver one as the warranty replacement and want to sell it cheap so you can get an ETS let me know; I'd possibly be interested in buying it off you. Perrin has offered me a new one for $500 shipped, but at ~$400 I'd bite immediately.

You've obviously got the hook-up at Perrin. I should be able to sell it for the same.
