Hi Liljay, no sweat mate
Do you know that the dyno cant kill your engine? If an engine fails on a dyno it would have failed on its next drive... If you tell me what you wont rev it past on the road,we wont rev it past that on the dyno |

| Hi John it's not a "mines bigger than yours day". You put your name down, I think we paid $40 last time, your car goes on the dyno and then tested and run, a performance sheet is spat out telling you the hp put out from your car. Then you are told if there is any problems with the motor or what you could do to make it perform better. In some cases last time members found out that the tune that they thought was good was way out and they had been wasting fuel or not making the best performance from there motor. It's also interesting to see what other cars are puting out with the mods they have done. We also put on a bbq lunch. |
