Dyno Day: analysis

howd you guys enjoy the dyno day? i thought it was pretty cool. i'm the kinda fat little **** that was with the scrawny kid in the 71 camaro (that had like 170 hp )

some of those cars were real nice, and it was cool to finally go to a dyno.

I had the stock 2000 red SS. I put down 305rwhp 316 rwtq. Great day, with a lot of great people to talk to. My Buddie's 03 cobra (black one) put down 404 rwhp. Your friends car will do better after changing cap, rotor, plugs & wires. It was mis-fireing bad.

yea, we went and got new msd plugs and wires as soon as we got back. his plugs were rusted to hell...

its still capable of burning out...even with its 175 hp...i guess its the 225 ft/lbs of torque

that mustang was nice, that guy was pretty cool too....it kinda sucked that all the maros were putting out like 300-350, and the mustangs were all like 400+ i suppose thats cuz we're n/a and they were s/c.

did you see that nova? it came in just as we were leaving...we wanted to see it, but didn't feel like waiting another 3 hours i never knews it took so long to do runs.

i got there late and left early, so i didn't see all the cars, but most of the f-bodys i saw were running around 300-350.
