Hey folks,

I feel guilty that I don't have too much time to hang out and post in the New England forum lately, escpecially since this is my own backyard. So lets make up for that right now....

2nd Annunal Daddy's SCP / KTR Performance (or KTR Performance / Daddy's SCP if you like) Dyno Day Saturday October 8th.

At KTR Performance's facility, 99 Fitchburg Road, Ayer MA. 01432

It's back and will be even better this year(if you can believe it). There will be at least 20 official pre-order spots at $50. You can thank Scott and the gang at KTR for the killer price, even lower than last year. We say a whopping 26 dyno runs last year. Mostly Subie's but we let a Mazda RX-8 in the door just for fun. This will be more than just a dyno day, it will be yet another fantastic New England meet. KTR will no doubt offer tours of the facility. You might get a chance to seethe Noble British Supercar, but you'll definately see rows upon rows of Farrari's, Porche and other exotics. There will be full on BBQ this year. The exhaust DB test even that never made it at the Wicked Big Meet will happen for sure this time. There will be the usually Daddy's SCP give aways(new springs, sway bars and gauges are due in about this time so we may have something fun to give away). Daddy's SCP will be bring some inventory clearance items so bring your cash. There will lots of new MadDad(TM) products on display as well, including the new Whisper Catback exhaust, and Clarity Gauges.

Last years event saw 60 or so Subies come and go during the day(marathon from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM). This is the first of many posts on the event. For now, the thing you really want to due is book your dyno spot ASAP. If I recall correctly last years spots were booked within 3 days. To reserve your spot call KTR Performance direct and ask for Scott Bertz - General Manager. KTR Performance is at 978-772-9911.

I'll follow up with some photos from last years event and put together photo's and pricing for the clearance items that will be at the show. Sould be another great time.

Ooooohhhh... I could throw some plastic spinners on the xB and dyno it. That'd be a hoot :)

- Jon

I should be able to make it. Last year's was a blast!

I'll be going. There should be some more competition for most hp this time. ;)

Yah, if you were making the same hp you made last year....NOT :D

It's going to be another fun day.

R.

Awesome! I've been waiting for this again. I'll be calling KTR on Mon. Can't wait Rich!
Nat

Nat's supposed to be on his way over so we can get some food...instead he's posting here....

@KTR in Ayer, MA
Thank You.

I'll be there! Just installed some new goodies. Can't wait to get on the dyno.

I'm in w/ the new ride baby.

last year was alot of fun. i'll def be there but not sure if i'll dyno. great price and will be hard to pass up...

i'll be there... hopefully

I just called and made an appointment for a dyno run!

I hear the dyno is very modest at KTR? Is that true?

I just got a spot... 11:20 AM :banana:


Mike

I hear the dyno is very modest at KTR? Is that true?

its called the heartbreaker for a reason. ;)

I'm in. Modest dyno and stage 1 car... will there be a prize for lowest numbers :p

I just got a spot... 11:20 AM :banana:


Mike
i have the 11am spot!

I'm in. I plan to get tuned at KTR in the spring so it will be nice to get a base #s now.

i'll probably spin by...especially since my elbow is working again... :lol:

Damn, this sounds like alot of fun and I want to attend, to bad it has to be 4 hours away! I need to buy some MadDad stuff anyways, maybe I can make a road trip and grab a few guys...hmmm

I'm in for noon baby, just B4 lunch.

How many pulls do you get for $50 and is that with wide band and boost? Rich don't forget your camera this time.

Last year we got three pulls - no wideband or boost. Don't know what you can arrange with KTR on the side, but I wouldn't expect it for $50. Signed up for the 1:20 spot today - first one after lunch! Wheee, can't wait.
Nat

How many pulls do you get for $50 and is that with wide band and boost? Rich don't forget your camera this time.

Actually, it's time to buy a new camera. I'm heading to SEMA again this year and want to come back with some nice photo's, but the Dyno Day is all the more reason to buy now. Woohoo, I'm going shopping....

R.

Good job Rich, you had to plan it on my wedding day huh!! Well have fun guys, I'd go, but I'll be to intoxicated to go there. Hope you all have fun.

I should have asked when I called to sign up for my spot.

R.

well, i'll see you at sema then

Rich, can I ask a favor, can you bring a ZR1 in hyperblack with you for us to check out? I really like those!

I want to get my stock 06 dyno'd. This sounds like the perfect time/place. I will be setting up an appointment tomorrow. :banana:

I'll be the last on the dyno. It'll be good to have a dyno graph and time sheet for the same day. I should also have a Q-Tec cutout in by then, so we can compare open/closed graphs.

any spots left open?

any spots left open?
You have to call them to setup a time slot.

Woo hoo. I got my spot at 2pm. My first dyno. :devil:

so looks like a good turn out
hope to have my car that day and i'll be like terry at import wars and then at KTR

Sorry, we direct ship all of the wheels we sell to save on the freight since half the time we end up shipping things right back to the west coast.

R.

bump it

I will most likely be able to make it.

Brian, at a meet!? Wait, did hell freeze over?

Hopefully my car will be fixed intime for this dyno. i was so excited to see what #s i was putting down.


(this is D0WNxSH1FT from clubWRX.net)

Brian was at KTR last year too. i think it was the official unveiling of his new STI :)

Rich will you have any downpipes and gaskets on hand at KTR?

I have his downpipe installed, you can look at mine. :)

HAHAHA yes I may make it. ;)

I just picked up my car from KTR last night too. I should have just left it there. That way I would have to come to the meet. :D

Rich,

You gunna have one of your new TMICs there??? ;)

You gunna have one of your new TMICs there??? ;)

:huh:

Is this a rain or shine event? Weather is looking gloom.
Either way I'll be there :)

What time are the main events going on?

So who is going to be there guys, are there any spots left?
I plan on going up, but probably won't dyno the GT unless there are spots available that day .... of course I said the same thing last year.

Everyone bring chairs if ya got em ;)

im giving up my 940 time slot......first come first serve, call scott and let him know

im giving up my 940 time slot......first come first serve, call scott and let him know
Done, and Done. :)

Thanks for posting up.

I will probably be there for a bit. Did not sign up for dyno times, but I know last year they squeezed in a couple people not on the list, we will see ;)

Of course I will be the non-subaru off to the side that everyone shuns. haha

Hey, I dont think I will be able to make the event. My car is still out of commission and even if she is fixed before saturday there is no way my ECU will learn the Cobb Map in time.

If i cancel my time is there anyway I can get the $50 offer postponed to a future date?

I know i should call, and I will on thursday when i have a definet answer for if im going or not. This sucks. I want my car back :-(

what time was your time?

11am.

I havent cancelled just yet, but I will make a decision by Thursday so as to be fair to the rest of you guys who want the space.

There isn't much learning it needs to do- just go on the highway in 5th gear- get your RPMS to 2600 and hold for a few seconds. Then go about 1/3 to 1/2 throttle and hold constant for about 10 seconds.

That should advance your multiplier and get you all set. It's a variation of the Vishnu reset. If you have any questions, PM me.

Mike

not much of a variation of the 'vishnu reset'... it's the same thing

but if you want to be brake and traffic law friendly, you can do it in any gear... but what rpm depends on where the coarse learning is set... subaru tachometers aren't really the best in the world... i would recommend doing it just under 3K to be sure you are in the right neighborhood...

Closer...

Aight, well ive never been a believer in the Vishnu trick and prefer to allow the ECU to learn at its own pace so...

I cancelled my 11am appointment. I dont even know when my AP is going to arrive. (hopefully today).

Have fun at the event guys!

I heard it's raining saturday. Everyone still going?

I'm installing my k&n typhoon. So much for dynoing stock. :lol:

Dude dont cancel because your ECU wont have learned. Just do the Vishnu thing and by the time you actually drive out to Ayer your car will be fully adapted by then. When I had Cobb Stage I and II power differences were noticed immediately. Never had to deal with an interim "learning" period.

that is the biggest cop out i have ever heard... all the 'vishnu trick' does is speed up coarse ignition learning (which takes all of a few drives to become fully 'learned' anyway)... the fine ignition trim is changing everytime you drive the car, regardless... not wanting to dyno because you feel that you need to allow the ecu more time to change it's clothes, shower and pick up some girls down at the local bar is retarded.

Easy for you say Mr Van man, you have a pink hemi......

The real reson he is not showing is that he heard the REDrum was going to there in his recently tuned SRR WRX and didn't want to get beat by a wagon.... :disco:

I'd go but I'm going to be busy deleting the virus that Redrum's IM just sent us!

That was me.:(

If I get outta the AutoX early enough I will swing by to say hey and see the charts.

I am bringing a stock upipe, ripe for the gutting and my resonator delete pipe if anyone is interested. I will be in the red Legacy GT, CHRIS......

9 hours away, maybe I should go to bed.

:huh:

Q-Tec was backordered, so no cutout for tomorrow. :( No racing either, so I'll be there earlier.
Lastest revision of ATI Gauge Pods both their triple clock mount and the very cool ePod steering column top replacement. I'll need one of these, with the aluminum-look trim. Zac's old guage pod got warped in the sun. :mad:

I'm up but will not say I am awake :o . I will see you early guys in a few hours.



Scott

Good morning folks....

Daddy will be there between 9:30 AM and 10:00 AM.

McBain - Gotcha on that ATI pod.

Don't let the rain keep you away KTR has a big facility, I'm sure everyone can stay semi-dry :)

Rich

booo rain! boooo!

I'm heading out soon, should be there around 12:30

:huh:
I think I should have said 9 hours till the dyno day. :p

Well I end up with 261.5hp @ 6400 and 232tq @ 4650
with a bit of a dip in the tq from 4750 to 5700 where it rolls off. I think I have some tuning to do. This was with water injection that I just started tuning last weekend.

That car is owned by the widow of a guy who made his millions renting band instruments to school kids. It's the only GTO with original paint, but it still sees track time. :eek: She even drives it herself.

Anyone know if the white STi I saw heading towards KTR on 2A made it on the dyno? I want to know if I got knocked off my pedestal. :cool:

ST1dDope about 268 ot like 271 or something

who had the most WHP of the day?

An M5 that was dynoed iirc

anyone with an 06 sti do any baseline runs???? I put down 207hp and around 185lbs flat torque curve with a cobb stg 2 and helix uppipe. dissapointed that the torque wasn't in the 200lbs area.

An '06 STi dynoed at 220 whp, 215-ish ft/lbs.

The M5 had 320 whp.
if you didnt thats 2 years running for you as the highest hp subbie :disco:I figured this would be the dyno day that I'd come in second or third, but no contenders (you, gotboost, ami2fast4u, RyanC) went on the dyno.

did rick throw his car on the dyno?

He did earlier in the week, 351 IIRC

Hope the dyno day was fun. I wish i had been able to go, but its been 4days since i got my car back, fixed, and flashed from stock (i had reverted) to VF34 map, still running stock boost. :(

Hopefully she'll learn soon.

i wish i could have made it. i was curious to see what my gt30r would put out on ktr's dyno.

my dyno will come next week
put 235 miles on it
only another 265 to go.......
dropping it back off to franz on friday for the final tune
should have it back at the end of following week...
hoping for the numbers franz was thinking
400+ on pump and 500+ on race.

car feels really strong considering i'm shifting at 4K with no boost....
loud on my god this car is loud and annoying on long drives.
gotta love it.

100 hp just from gas, or using a dif tune?

100 hp just from gas, or using a dif tune?

both.
its a different tune but because of the of the race fuel used c16
there is alot more power to be found as more timing can be used without any worries of det. happening.

That was me.:(

Everyone always blames the REDrum for social diseases.....
:lol:

An M5 that was dynoed iirc

Yup, a buddy of mine's w/ a Dinan stage II kit. But, yes, he too was heartbroken on the Dynodynamics. He'd been braggin for years it pulled 460whp....... :lol:

The flat tq plateau was impressive on though.

I was satisfied with my numbers.

I pulled 266.3whp
Out of an 05 STi with a 3" ScoobySport turboback, and a UTEC on the standard stage 2 map.

I was the second dyno of the day, right after the 261whp 02 wrx

Hey look, I see my car! :lol:

One of the KTR guys said the k&n typhoon hurts my car. He could be right, or maybe it's because I didn't get to change the car oil since I bought the car. Stupid rain. :(

I had a great time though. The burger was great. The cars were awesome. I got a few waves/flash from other subie owner.

Gusto was right, KTR is definitely a hidden gem in MA. I had trouble finding it too.

Next time guys. After I get my power mods.

Damn B, Photohop does wonders.... :lol:.

Can you possibly send me the high-res pictures of my car?

Rick

p.s. The worst weekend continues tonight.... still not done and can't figure out what's wrong :(.

p.s. The worst weekend continues tonight.... still not done and can't figure out what's wrong :(.

Yeah i'll send it out tonight. Friggin cars man.... well i did what i could.

It'll be interesting to see what the true culprit is.

any stock 06 2.5L rex's dyno that day? anyone have any numbers?

None that I am aware of, just the 06 sti

Damn B, Photohop does wonders.... :lol:.

You telling me you guys still didn't finish :eek:

- Rich

Hey, can one of the KTR guys PM me about either the next meet or maybe a future dyno run. I had to cancel my 11am slot b/c my car was dead lol. Shes fixed now and learning the Cobb map. Id like to see what my VF-34 is putting down. Thanks guys!

You can email scottb@ktrperformance.com to schedule dyno time. Franz can do the 3k rpm trick on the dyno to get your ignition multiplier back up, if needed.

Thanks Terry. Hey, are you gonna be at the Fall Boston meet? if we ever decide on a date and location lol.

I tried that vishnu trick, but i dont think i did it right b/c it didnt do anything.

You telling me you guys still didn't finish :eek:

- Rich and..... the saga continues :(.

Rick

and..... the saga continues :(.

Rick
I hear ya. My car died on me while driving, then was out of commission for about two weeks. I bought a new ECU, and everything. Turned out to be a pinched wire that shorted due to a bad dealer install of my boost gauge 9 months ago.

Good luck figuring out what's wrong!

and..... the saga continues :(.

Rickand..... it's finally complete :banana:.

Damn this thing is loud when engaging, sounds as though the car is falling apart. Gotta love the twin disc clutches :lol:.

Rick

what was wrong ?
