I don't have 40 bucks to spare. I also want to go drag racing on the 7th.

I'm leaving from McKinney, but we have to make a detour to Cobb on the way there off 75.

I'll be leaving from McKinney as well. I'm planning on getting there right around 10 am (I need to talk to the dyno operator or shop manager).

Why are you going to Cobb? When you said "we," I'm guessing you're bringing your boyfriend Kamron?

Hey, you know we broke up...lol.

We're dropping Kamron's car off at Cobb and then going back there at 1pm so he can get an alignment.

Thanks Adam for setting up the dyno and the Cipher.

I'm satisfied with my AFR. I just wish I could've gotten real number and not the messed up numbers that I got for the horsepower and the torque (I put down 211.4 on nitrous, rofl). However, Jeff did tell me that I could swing by some other time to get a good graph, so I might have to do that.

Nope, I **** you not. My torque was 193.5 and 211.4.

Because my dyno runs were f*cked up, Jeff said I can come back and re-dyno to get a good graph (my tq graph was messed up and the dyno couldn't read my RPM correctly).

Hey np Chris. But your horsepower reading was 314-ish, right?

My whp for both dyno runs are in my sig. This dynojet reads a bit low (considering I was on a true 75 and 100 shots and only "gained" very little). I'm pretty sure your numbers should've been higher also.

Dynojet is supposed to be the highest reading you can get though?

Also, your rear tires are bald....I saw your car move a little on the dyno and i think it was becasue of the tires...or it just wasn't strapped down right.

Yeah, but depending on the calibration method of each dynonameter, the readings can be different. I was saying that this dyno read lower than the other dynojets I've seen. Most Gs put down very very low 200s, I did 315 with a 100 shot (I dyno'd 250+ before), the stage 2 GT500 only did 510, etc.

As far as moving on the dyno, I didn't actually see it myself. My tires are pretty bald, but I think the slight twitch that you saw could be due to the fact that the car wasn't aligned 100% with the dyno rollers. When it starts rolling, the car will straighten out on the dyno by itself.

My rear tires are bald too, and my car started to move a little. For a second I thought it was going to roll of the edge, got a couple inches away but settled down.
