Mountain Dyno Day!

[blefevre]

Info update!!!

First off, these guys sound pretty cool over the phone. They usually only do group discounts for 10+ cars which we might be able to get from here. I might expand to union1609/bimmerforums if I need to.

-Discount runs about $60 for their baseline run (3 pulls) which is $15 off
-AFR is included with every run free of charge. YAY
-Tuning is allowed. They usually put that person at the end. They can knock off $20 or so an hour.
-They like to have a 2-3 week notice
-They WILL do a saturday

Now to do it we NEED more then 10 people that WILL run and pay $60. That is a pretty good price for a good dyno (dynojet), good shop, and afr included. Some shops charge extra for the O2 logging.

PM me if you are in for sure. We will wait till everyone is ready (Sorry not you Eric, lol).

We have two so far. My E30 and E36, unless the Ti is torn apart at that time.

We will do it on a Saturday morning if that works for everyone. We can get lunch after/photoshoot if we want.

Nice, sounds cool! So you have a chipburner?

I have a couple things including an eprom reader/writer and some chips on order (been on order for a while), i have all the software and bins etc...

i've been working on learning it a while. i geek out on it, its fun. :)

David, I drove the car before without issue I believe.

Maybe by the time we do this I'll have all my chip and tuning gear........not that I could tune in between pulls without having to pay a lot more i'm sure...

i'm into extreme DIY, I've tuned other obd1 chips before, I'm learning the obd1 413 structure, hopefully I'll have time before the day to build one custom tune with my gear and wideband o2.....

On their site it says self tune is 120 an hour, billed every 15 minutes after that. No idea if there is a discount if we do the group thing but I will make sure to ask.

Sean, it would be super interesting to see what the E30 S50 puts out. we may also need to weigh your car...

I am def interested in at least spectating. I probably can't flop the money down for a dyno, it would be irresponsible of me at the moment, because I should be buying diapers...
