Re: 2009 Fall Dyno Day - Oct 3rd @ MAP
diesels can't go past 4 something. Some kind of physical impossibility with regular diesel fuel, I believe.

Re: 2009 Fall Dyno Day - Oct 3rd @ MAP
Diesels are usually for gas mileage or pulling. You usually pull best with torque, you make more torque at lower rpms. You get better gas mileage at low rpms too. They are usually heavy rotating assembly motors, built to run very high boost to make high torque at low rpms and get gas mileage while doing it and not built to spin high rpms. Pro diesel tractor pullers might see RPMs in excess of 6000 though, but they aren't exactly a street truck/car made to last forever and save gas.

Re: 2009 Fall Dyno Day - Oct 3rd @ MAP
Don't really have any and if I had some high HP beast, I wouldn't take it some other shop's dyno day to try to show them up or anything.

That would make sense, I didn't even think of that.

Re: 2009 Fall Dyno Day - Oct 3rd @ MAP
Would I be considered a "shop car" or could I partake in the action on the dyno?
