View Full Version : Dyno Day April 14th at DSG 9:30AM
dentsport 03-26-2007, 05:56 PM We're having a dyno day on April 14th at the shop. Depending on turnout we'll most likely be doing some kind of lunch for participants as well.
Pulls will include AFR and boost logging as well as printouts of your dyno run. Matt will be present to discuss future tuning plans with anyone who is interested. We hope to keep a list going here, limiting the group to 15 people and starting at 9:30 am.
Runs will be $85 for 3 pulls.
Make sure that your tires have a good amount of air in them (around 40psi is recommended), oil is at correct levels, coolant too.. boost leaks tended to prior to getting on the dyno.

dentsport 03-30-2007, 02:00 PM The room is done as of today. Mega Maid has been installed and wired. It's powered by a 3 speed transmission and 15hp electric motor that will keep the air fresh inside the cell for even the highest output cars. Major thanks to our friend Mike Cahill the head carpenter and project foreman, Carl Blando carpenter extraordinaire, and Kevin Boudreau our electrician for going along with this.
We need to finish the ducting to the window.

Paddy and I might come down to hang out. We'll have to bring the RS down another time for real dyno time, not just a few pulls.

Longshot 04-03-2007, 11:52 AM My god, she's gone from suck to blow! Barring any sudden issues with my car, I am interested in getting a baseline run. It's a 487,000 hour drive for me, but I don't mind going early. :D

jekichu,
The bumper should be fine. We have very special equipment (a combination of special 2x6s) for getting the low down rides on the dyno.
Dogs are great unless they are salivating and have diseases like the one in christmas vacation. So unless you have one of those, bring your pooch by.

Your profile says 2001 Sedona Red RS - is that what you're still driving, or what are you getting a baseline on? I know you've dyno'd the RS before.

Right, still driving the RS. I am getting a baseline on the Impreza with a stock 2005 EJ205 motor. I am hoping I put down a little more than I did the last time I was on the dyno. :D
05WrB WRX 04-07-2007, 10:36 AM I'll be there to watch.
(getting dyno tuned in the next month, no point to dyno the car)

<-- wants to see how much power his bike has lost over the years :lol:
rudyWRX 04-11-2007, 09:13 AM rain, snow or shine?
dentsport 04-11-2007, 11:54 AM Rain, snow or tsunami-
alacrity- we can run your bike. What kind of bike is it? PM me and we'll discuss it. We ran an R1 and it made 162wheel.
REXMASS 04-11-2007, 03:44 PM hey I'm in if you still got room on Saturday-NHIS just got cancelled Friday's event so hopefully Sat. will help get my fix
rudyWRX 04-11-2007, 06:28 PM just curious... you guys dyno in 4th gear right? or is it 3rd?
2.5 SUBY 04-11-2007, 06:51 PM 6mt.. 4th ger.. 5mt and 4eat 3rd

dentsport 04-11-2007, 08:51 PM Rex, yes we have room. I'll add you.

dentsport 04-12-2007, 07:35 PM Dude, my new short wheelbase montero just put down a ground pounding 44hp in 4x4 mode. I'm pretty sure you aren't last.
(this is Alex posting now... if it were Bill he'd be telling you about his 54hp Tercel)

44hp, did you have to have someone sit in the trunk to keep it from hopping off the rollers? You wanna think about adding a 'chute for that bad boy before you take it to the track again. :)
I joke, and now my car will make 43hp :(
2.5 SUBY 04-13-2007, 12:33 PM hope you guys can handle a 4eat haha

(this is Alex posting now... if it were Bill he'd be telling you about his 54hp Tercel)
is a montero a lawn tractor :lol: O.K., I guess with my LTW pulley I should be able to top 44 & 54hp.
Just to confirm before I decide to add my name, Matt will be there to discuss tuning issues/options?
dentsport 04-13-2007, 01:19 PM Matt will be present, yes.
TheLegacy 04-13-2007, 04:06 PM I might swing by and say hi for a few min. Doing my dyno and tuning on wed :+)
and thats the nearing end of me owning my car
Aphex28 04-13-2007, 04:12 PM I might have to cancel mine... my turbo blew 2 days ago, it all really depends on if swapping the turbo goes with not hitch tonight.

Didn't you just get her back on the road!
Aphex28 04-13-2007, 05:19 PM ya for about 2 weeks. the vf-39 on the car had the crack, the biggest i've seen so I'm swapping in my good vf-39 into there today.
2.5 SUBY 04-13-2007, 08:13 PM Wont be able to make it.. sorry

BlackSTI2006 04-14-2007, 02:55 AM I have to run a few errands in the morning, then i might venture down to check the place out....got a few questions for matt too
Sideshowbob 04-14-2007, 11:27 AM Holy **** did I oversleep.

REXMASS 04-14-2007, 04:31 PM Well I got there at 10 thinking I was going to be late...everyone else strolled in after me-at least those of you who got out of bed ;) . I only took a few pics but you can see them here:

Thanks to all the guys at DSG for setting this up-it was also nice to meet everyone else. And of course the info everyone is waiting for....211.5 HP on my conservative Stage II setup :disco: . Need to adjust my wastegate arm to get some more boost (was hitting just under 15psi) but I was happy...
xrocket21 04-16-2007, 09:11 AM It was fun to check out the shop, very cool place. I was amazed by the time attack car. Seriously amazed! I can't believe how close the shop is to my house too! Ill have to stop by again sometime! Id like to see the time attack on the dyno actually....
Thanks for letting me bring the dog, she loves to see people, even though she was a little whiny from being cold. Thanks guys!
Sideshowbob 04-16-2007, 09:54 AM ^^^^^
Good to see you!
I didn't know you took off, Bodi, my doggie, was 5 minutes away from coming by!
