He keeps wanting me to put my car on his dyno but I don't see a point right now being stock engine wise. But like I said I'm not trying to steal business just throwing out there is a dyno jet in the area

i liked the repeatability of it. Being an engineer I was well aware of the differences at the time between the DD and the DJ. Also, portability was a terrific selling point especially when the Katrina hit... that one sealed the deal from there on out.

Not only that when we took the tuning classes at efi101 and saw the machines that the big name tuners were using, DynoPac, Mustang and Dyno Dynamics. We narrowed it down to DP and DD and the DD won because of ease of testing when it comes to getting cars in and off the dyno with out having to take the wheels off.

Well we cant all get what we want in life, there are peak and valleys.
So like u said its all a number, take that bad boy to the track (1320) get some good times according to your mods and flick the dyno off. Its simple as that, I really don't care about the numbers when I tune it can be 45whp your car made, but when I finish tuning it and if it makes 65whp than I did my job. That 65whp gets taken to the track and it runs 13.9@101 then what did that tell ya?
