another Dyno day???
- Thread starter team23jordan
- Start date
...then accidents start to happen.
Well that "accident" thing sounds familiar.
Actually, I'm over the racing stripe I got the last time, Alex treated me very well all things considered.
And I do need to get back to test the new tune RWTD James provided after I installed the Steeda Cat-Back.
On a technical note. James was very specific about how he wanted the dyno run staged. His web site is down due to Ivan but from what I recall he was insistent that I run, and that the operator capture, from 1500 RPM on through to redline (limiter) due to:
a) The notorious lag in the a/f sniffer response time and
b) The ability of some these motors to reach their true peak at 6400+ and
c) I may be suffering from a bad plug (blowout) at about 5800 See my A/F Graph and HP-TQ Graph
The latter begs the question, should I bring a set of plugs with me and if so, whose? Could it be time for gapless Brisks?
Regardless, I’ll post his full response when his site is up and running and I can log in again. In theory I should see more HP & TQ and a flat 12.0 a/f. And, since installing the new tune I do find it harder to keep the beast planted so I don’t doubt him.
BTW, the 9th, or whatever day we get is fine, I only need a new file to send James in case my a/f is off. I’m done moding until spring.

No hmwave, no pulley yet. The second run was with the tune from James and as you can see it did help. -JaKaL
Ok, so let's count this up. How many people do we have for the 9th? Hmwave, you're in? Team23jordan, you're in? How about you, JaKaL? And Ricksvt, will you be there? How many people will be there that you guys have told about it that have not been on the board?
Yes, I'm in.
It's worth noting that with the colder air coming in a few pulls to check the AFR is the wise thing to do especially for $75.
Recall that the weather was very hot at our last dyno session.
I had a one point leaner difference summer to winter with my first tune and that put me slightly above 12.5 in the colder winter days - not terrible but bordering on unsafe at full boost.

I'll do the old leap frog thing. Drive 1 for 20 feet then stop, hop out into the other and drive it 40 feet and so on,....NOT! I'll figure something out.
i'm in for sure
put shangsta too
i'm pretty sure he wants to dyno too

I dont feel like reading all the posts. Maybe we should start a new post. When is the dyno day?
October 9th at 10 AM
JakaL is in.
Ps. Statistically, Oct 9th has seen rain on 48 of the last 112 years.

That's better than 50/50. Pretty good odds if you're in Vegas. Not so good if you like to keep your baby clean. I have been caught in the rain only twice in the 7500 miles I have on her. It really pissed me off, ask my wife
OCTOBER 9th..so we need to be there by 9:30ish??
and rain is no biggie for me...
just put like 3 layers of wax and it'll be fine
