Update 7-17: Dyno Wars - Nationals GTG

[Lord Aries]

The rules of a Dyno War state that you CAN NOT make changes to your set up once on the Dyno, it's all or nothing once on the rollers...


That said, I am sure that running in two class will be ok, its just a matter of figuring out the cost. If there is enough time I am sure we could arange some Non Competition time to make a pull or two for Baselining after the event...


Also, You have got to PM with the required info to be in this. I need to keep a detail list of everyone in the event.

I'm assuming that it won't be a problem to have the laptop hooked up during the runs?  I'm also wondering if it's better to run with the converter locked or un locked?  That can be changed by one click.

Laptop should be fine, you want to be in 3rd Gear (1:1 gear) and Lock the converter if you have that ability.  When doing this with out a Laptop its a little tricky to roll onto the throttle just right so it does not down shift.

Is your software unlocked, could you plug into anyones Truck to lock the TC and trans into 3rd gear?
Actualy, Livernois can probably bring their GM Tech II with them for this pupose as well...

[KY_BOB]

I can lock or unlock the converter on anything that it will plug into.  I'll have to look into being able to lock it into 3rd.

Are you sure they want us to make pulls in 3rd?  Won't some people hit their speed limiters?

You are supossed to a dyno pull in a 1:1 gear to get a real power number... You can do it in 2nd but, it won't be acurate...

We can use your laptop or a GM Tech II to disable the Speed limiter if we need to. 

[SRFNSNO]

If it fits in with the other schedualed events, I would like to Give this a shot with my Ride.

FI with Mods.

Hope to have HP tuner by then.

I can do it on any 02 but not the rest.  That requires flashing a new tune.

TCC lockup can be turned on or off through VCM scanner and it's not VIN specific, so I can do that on any vehicle.

[BooTheRedneck]

Did someone mention dyno with a side order of liver and onions?

Surely, no one thinks I wouldn't want to go.  I just want to be a spectator though.

I should have HPTuners by then too. I'll be licensed for multiple years so I can help with that as well.

[Spork_Driver]

Nationals aren't that far if can make an overnight trip.  I'm sure you could bunk with someone so that you can do this.

Added new competitors!



FYI: To everyone talking about putting stock tires on to make more power... In the world of Dyno's and real street vehicles that is considering a Wusses way of cheating the game.  Unless its a drag car/truck, you run your set up just as you would on the street...

There is a special name for that type of vehicle when people do that, Dyno Queen and trust me you don't want that kind of reputation!!!

It's a good thing I'm running stock now Hey Bob, you still want those OEMs...ya Queen

Watch this "queen" spin way over 400rwhp. 



I have the use of 2 stock wheels and tires if I want to use them (thanks Quarter).  I may leave my everyday tires on it.  I'll figure it out between now and then.

So I guess I'll have to add a new fuel pump and a bigger nozzle before then

  ya bro   This is going to be fun

[KY_BOB]

ya bro   This is going to be fun

Yes, it is! 



I want to see more stock and mildly modded trucks in this.  Speaking of that, does a custom tune or handheld programmer knock a truck out of the "stock" class?  If so, that will effect a lot of people.

[BigBlackAv]

I'm in....i'll fill out my mod list when i get my truck back (it has been soooo long)

I would think yes.  But it would be nice to see the same truck with and without the tune.  Then we would have good evidence how much extra HP you get from one of those things.  I'd be willing to donate $50 toward it.  Any takers

[BigBlackAv]
