Dyno #1
Went to a local dyno day looking to get some a/f ratios so I can get this puppy fine tuned remotely by AA/Bimmerworld. Unfortunately, the sniffer they had was broken and nobody got a/f's unless they had an empty bung for one and they requested it.
Anyway, I was expecting something low as most car owners were reporting low readings all day (friend of mine has a supercharged vette that put down 790 whp on an 85 degree day, only put down 730whp on this perfectly cool day. More of the same from other cars, supposedly). I was expecting around 235-240... was pleasantly surprised.
First pull was in 3rd, second and better of two pulls was in 4th. Can't wait to get it fine tuned by AA. If you're having trouble reading it, it says peake 261rwhp/231rwtq
Don't know if I was more surprised with the numbers or the amount of attention it got. There were supercharged vettes, s/c cameros, s/c e46 m3's, boosted s13's, s/c lightnings and for some reason - I got A LOT of attention. Lots of compliments and it really did feel good. 3 of the techs really appreciated it, esp being DIY's themselves.
Will update when I get it fine tuned... need another dyno with a/f's first. Just thought I'd post since some of you guys were curious.
