Between my first dyno and my last I lost about 20HP. But i ran the same exact times on the 1/4 after both runs.

The only difference here that caused my issue is that Greg touched my test pipes.. had it not been for his purple thumb curse, i'm sure i would have pulled 290 at Corr, but still ran the same 1/4 regardless.

the point here is that i have to take a schit and don't feel like typing anymore..

Registered.

Do I qualify as a novice? I'm a novice to autoxing RWD, but not to autox by any means.

Don't know. I guess you'll just have to run BS.

The lameness of this town is starting to **** me off. It was cute at first, but now it's kind of getting in the way.

Went to lunch at this little place in bum **** egypt today & of course they don't take credit cards (I generally don't carry cash). A lady with whom I worked covered my lunch & I said I'd pay her lunch tomorrow.

I get to the hotel & check online & there's no Chase bank locally, but there is a Chase ATM in a Walgreen's. It's on the other side of town, but that's only like six miles.

I watch the Hornets/ Mavs game & then head out. Takes me almost twenty minutes to get there because every light in town is timed & they're not psynched at all. You're pretty much guaranteed to get every one red if you catch one.

I finally get there & the ATM is out-of-order.

What the mother ****?

I end up driving back & stopping at some shitty local bank's ATM. So in the end, I ended up eating a $2 ATM fee plus the gas to drive across this shitty town.

**** me the **** off.

Yeah. I'm just annoyed/ aggravated/ etc.

The money I'm making being here is awesome, but is it worth being stuck in Natchitoches five nights a week?

I really think that once your car is tuned, the Dyno can only be the devil. If you are happy with how it feels, and how it performs then don't sweat a dyno. I dyno'd on a DJ and DD (corr's) just to know. I lost a lot gong to a DD, but i knew I would (alberto and i did the math and were basically spot on before we even pulled it). It's just a number. I can sit here all day and rationalize why it made what it made, but the facts are i really like how the car feels. Jay and Alberto are good guys (as good as soccer fans can be), and I think for what they do their dyno is best. I would ONLY EVER use a dyno if i as about to make a mod. I would dyno before and after on the same dyno with the same engineer running it.
