My guess is the dyno broke.
09-29-2013
Long story short, they strapped Dan's car down by the floorboard, it came off the dyno and they said the power peaked at 4000rpm anyway.
I didn't even run my car after that. Chris made like 290.
09-29-2013
Good times.
09-29-2013
I blew 70 bucks on race gas for nothing weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
09-29-2013
Dan's car was going to make well over 500.
09-29-2013
im seriously pissed off right now. They strapped the car by some sheet metal under the drivers side, as soon as it went into boost it tore the metal and ^ that ^ was the result. They wouldnt touch the car after that. Fkn sucks. total retardedness. will be going to a legit dyno shop VERY soon to get this done.

287 to be exactOriginally Posted by SnowFlake
, and 327lbs torque.. I'm happy with the numbers given it was a mustang dyno.

We'll have to set something up with Guy at Debiase Bros in Wallingford... they knew how to strap our cars down lol

Is that one a mustang dyno as well??
09-29-2013
nope its a dynojet
09-29-2013
Sswweeeeett

The guys there were telling me that dynojets are so inaccurate it's 'not even funny'.
A fixed roller with a fixed diameter and a fixed weight is less accurate than a dyno where you have to input 100 different calibrations.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

And they also were insisting on doing only 3rd gear pulls of our cars at first.
09-29-2013
regardless of the nonsense that happened, im still glad i went to support the cause. just fkn blows i didnt get to do a proper pull!
09-29-2013
Both times I went to dyno, they strap it down by the subframe.
09-29-2013
they actually did have it strapped to the subframe, ratcheted straight forward. and in the rear as well. but the lateral restraints were WRONG. i tried to tell them that after the fact, but they said they were done. :/
unfortunately i never saw exactly what they did initially, i just figured they knew what they were doing.
Chris' car ran without issue so i never even thought twice about it.
09-29-2013
You're supposed to cross the front restraints also, they were straight.
09-29-2013
I'm glad I went first lol. Otherwise they probably would have told me no as well.

Dumb, well atleast your car is fine. When i was on the phone with Nick it was hard to hear him cus you guys were in the bar, it sounded like he said it came off and hit a pole. Well i would of still liked to come but after last night my buddys truck got stuck in woods untill 3 am (Dam dodge got pulled out by a 2wd Jeep) And my cat missing when i got home, looking for him untill 4:30 am and then throwing up all morning. But i got the pully on. Car is running good but im seeing knock so im keeping my foot out of it till i see Nick again.
