My brother helped me put this together a short clip of last weekend's dyno tune adventure. Enjoy!

Here's my dyno plot(s). RunFile_001.drf is my final run of the day (RunFile_004.drf is the baseline) & you'll notice the peak is still climbing. Notice the rpm cutoff at 6.7, which is totally bizarre. We've isolated this to either an issue with my Screamin' Demon coil or Kingsbourne spark plug wires, so both will be replaced shortly & then I'll tune again to take full advantage of the Frackmobile's capacity.

Engine modifications:
Alta 15% pulley
Alta 2% crank pulley
Altanator pulley (to avoid overspinning alternator)
M7 AGS v.3
RMW cam
Comptech 4-2-1 header
Magnaflow high-flow cat
Borla race cat-back
JCW 380cc injectors
M7 DFIC
Coil + wires + NGK plugs
Unutilized Venom NO2

Just got home from a ***** of a day, 425 between 10 and 5 and 630 by 9
I started at 7am.
I love the revenue for the day , but hate the extrawork for a huge bunch of "we never go to a nice place like ths" people
Ill post some interesting numbers for you all on Monday after I pull a p-mix for the day.
I need a day to go motoring

Where's everybody at? Does anyone know of a dyno here in town that we can go do a couple pulls? I want to get an accurate a/f read on where my car's at before Dr.Steve puts the a/f gauge in.

fracky if my car ever gets out of Edge Motor's. Steve is going to do a little rewiring and you can check out my A/F gauge (DX-16). I have it mounted in between the Speedo and tech. It looks real good with all 5 gauges togather.

I'm headed over to Hooters for a beer after 6:00 P.M. tonight to check out if another group of car enthusiasts shows up. I met one of their group a few weeks ago and would like to check it out. Anyone wanting to tag along is welcome, as usual.

No one there. There was one WRX in the parking lot, but nothing else interesting and no group of car crazies inside. I been there twice on Wednesday and neither time have they showed.

I'm going to call Whipple in a minute. Does anyone want in on this action? .....just called Whipple & they don't rent out their dyno. Is Method Motor Works still in business? I did some dyno time there 4 years ago.

The Hooters were inside, not in the parking lot. They seem to upgraded their women; they all are robust now.
