I didn't put you down with my post. I just commented about many dyno posts, followed by what dyno, which dyno is better, & so on. All I said is that if anyone has doubt about their power gain, try seeing how quick/fast you car is. I even gave an out for the avg. driver by checking the mph speed. Feel fast=most of the time in peoples minds. Dyno charts can be made to look like anything that makes people happy.

When a person gets a high dyno reading, the shop gets praise.
When a person gets low or even true reading, that shop will get a "it suck" rating.

Your starting to sound like some type of bully Andre. I suggest you quit it everyone has the right and freedom to do what they want to their car. Not everyone likes Drag racing.

I gotta say I agree with Andre when it comes to Dyno posts without real life results at the track. I cant speak for anyone else but I would rather brag about 1/4 mile times than dyno numbers

That is an opinion which your are entitled to. I've liked drag racing for a while now, But after 4 sets of Pro series axles, 2 diffs. 1 Vq35HR engine and 2 transmissions. I slowed down a bit on the drag racing and I hope the spending slows down a bit. So I believe not a lot of people are ready to spend 30k+.

You can't make people like drag racing, some people just like having a powerful reliable car. Andre is a great drag race driver that's about it.

I read my posts twice. I saw the OP mention he did the 1/8 of a mile & was going back to the track when his clutch situation gets better.

I didn't do anything but suggest that checking a car(with professional/accurate timming) at the track is the only way to see if indeed the car/the mods/tune has improved performance. You don't have to be a pro to do this. Drive as you drive, and check the before & after times & or speed of car. After my test pipes & a tune was installed, the car felt slower than with the cats. Abviously I was wrong.....

I notice that EVERY person here wants a faster car, but when they find out that they suck at driving, they post that not everyone likes drag racing

"Andre is a great drag race driver THAT'S ABOUT IT"

Well I'll tell you what I'm NOT....
I'm a guy that NEVER broke a SINGLE STOCK axle(that's w doing a 1.642 60'). Never damaged my STOCK DIFF/STOCK LSD. Never damaged my engine in any way. Never rebuild my engine. 30K??? I spent maybe 3k for mods/tires & tune. I also NEVER posted a 13 second time slip.

I agree that high dyno result for shops give better business which I dont agree with. I do dynos to make sure I didnt loose any power with the mod I did, whether its 3 whp gain to a 15 whp gain, I care more about if I can feel those numbers. Dynos are one thing but actually feeling the power is another. I also track mine too see if I can get better numbers. My simple statement is that not everyone should track there cars to see if its fast or not. I personally know some people who do not want to take the risks, and some people who have done it, that will never do it again because of something that happened. I agree that 1/4 time comparisons between mods can be a good thing but there are to many variables. Let people think and do what they want, as long as their happy who cares?
