Additional features of the “Butt Dyno”
It measures Deceleration and Lateral G Forces with equal accuracy.

Optional feature requested by my “Carbon Based Rev Limiter”.
Electro-Shock connections to other local vital areas, for when the recommended forces are exceeded.

Woah, I have created a monster here (the car's not bad either). I have dynoed the car only once: when we first installed the kit. We posted the plots here:

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...9&page=2&pp=25

Since then, we have installed a larger-than-stock supercharger pulley, completely replaced and re-tuned the management with the next generation Powerpaq, and a new exhaust. We haven't been able to get the car back in for new dynos, and it will have to wait until after the holidays, unless I want to get kicked out of the house. As soon as we get the car off the dyno next week, I'll come sprinting over to the computer and post the plots. I sure hope we make 300whp after all the bravado .

Whoa! It was only a matter of time before the sparks started to fly!

In the near future, 300whp will become the new "benchmark" for this car. A year or so ago, only the "daring" were putting a 15% pulley on the car. And the "stupid" were going with the 19% pulley!

"Captain, I'm givin' her all she's got!"

hmmm, now that I'm unemployed, I am somehow "making" more money to fund my project. Strange. With my tax return just around the corner, I should have ample funds for my plans...if I can keep my better half out of my wallet.

It can be like on that episode of Mythbuster's where they strap those 4 rockets to the roof of that car in the desert and try to drive it with a radio control.

Now I think I would need a video of the actual dyno too.

I don't know what's real anymore.

Just remember that talk is cheap.

Until then, I'll spend it on something else.

It worked, but didn't end up going very fast (100 ish?). It definitely didn't take flight and bury itself into a rock cliff only to be discovered by state troopers.
