forgot c16 guess. umm, this one is hard. I don't remember any numbers for that size singles with race gas. Most do e85. Hmm, 675.
My bad, I guess I was assuming u were talking about a greddy kit.

oh ya, weird. I usually don't try to compare a single to twins. Twins will flow more therefore usually get higher numbers per octane than a single though.

Yeah, I wanted to try and optimize flow with this kit as much as I possibly could for that reason.

That's why I bought those $1500 momentum headers insted of the $300 Megan racing headers along with the Plenum spacer,cams, head work, and momentum exhaust.

I feel like i have done just about all I can to address to address flow.
It's still not as good as twins but right now I have as much tourq as I do hp( I know that's gonna change) so it looks to have pretty good flow for a st set-up imo.

i'm confused why it's taking so long. Is he putting it on the dyno, doing some work, removing it to work on other cars then putting yours back on the dyno?

I can't believe someone would do that since it's very inefficient with the time.

I don't know if my car has been strapped the whole time or not.
All I care about is final results, and I'm not just talking about power.
I know he has been getting the car hot, then letting it cool, then rechecking fitment and just basicly going over every thing with a fine tooth comb.
I think they have a dyno pack too.

Bryan is known for being Very maticulous and thorough.

All joking aside, I just had to get some other cars tuned and it gave us a chance to tighten all the various vband clamps and what not, oil change, check plugs, etc...

I almost wish I could hire a second tuner to help me out lol.

that makes sense. I'm not judging but i just figured there had to be a reason behind it worth all the effort to put the car on the dyno, remove it, and all that jazz multiple times.

where are you located? I would love a weekend job of running a dyno. Not a lot of market for it here. Oh ya, i will only be able to work on my 2 week december, may, and august breaks from med shcool until i graduate april 2013.

I wish i had a dyno so i could just test all kinds of **** with my car every day for some evening relaxation time. It's fun to keep making changes and see how the power reacts to it.

I would love to have a dyno helper lol. We are a small operation (<4 employees) so I have to do it all myself but taking cars on and off a dynojet isnt that bad. We have a dynapak dyno as well and believe me when a car goes on that it stays on till its done.

stuff like dialing injector angles, cam angles, etc take way more time than any paying customer would do. At that point you have to be buddy buddy with a shop with a load dyno.

how do you load the car into the dynapak, just jack the rear en up and slide the hub meters onto it? PITA either way for sure!

well i've already made plans to get this clutch in my car and get back on the dyno over christmas. maybe in may i'll send ya a message and see if you need any help. I have quite a few friends down in texas that i regularly visit.


Rich, they jack it, drop the tires, bolt up the packs. Not that hard but taking the tires on and off would be annoying to deal with. I know i hate doing it just to swap my street tires on so doing it daily to put stuff on those dynos would suck.

Car will finish out around 560ish on pump.

Spent the day chasing a siphon problem that came back to the siphon tube not wanting to stay latched onto the basket. All the pipes have settled in finally after the heat cycles but we will be pulling off the crossover tube to add a flex section and get rid of the double slip joint where we had to cut the opposite pipe to make it seat properly.
