Hey, C.DAVE.GO no problem man. Ok, I put you down for 8:15pm. (that's the time you wanted, correct?) Please send your deposit to:

paypal@dynoflash.com



Thanks, Chris

 

Which dyno facility are you guys using?

 

BYW, Why would he use a Dyno?
Doing so, based on what I've read, is less effective than street tuning.

 

^^

 

So just street tune....no dyno time to get some official #'s?

 

Different strokes for different folks when it comes to tuning. I've heard from different people who like one or the other. I for one would rather have a dyno tune so that I can see whats going on with A/F and timing. Oh yeah, and of course for my ego, but street tunes are just as good from what I've heard. I'm still a novice when it comes to all this stuff though so don't listen to me or take my word for it.

 

I think Al hooks up his computers and checks the a/f and timing DURING the street tune....

Also, while I'm curious to know my BHP, it's not worth paying the extra money (over and beyond the cost of the tune) for me to get it dyno tested. Other than the custom flash, I intend to keep my evo stock anyway.

 

Just wondering if DynoFlash got my deposit. I noticed I'm not marked as "paid deposit". i sent it like 3 days ago via PayPal. Let me Know. Thanks

 

That was my point exactly, different strokes for different folks. From what I gather both tunes are good (street or dyno) but for me and alot of other people who are spending money to make our cars faster i.e. flash, piggy back, or stand alone it's worth paying the $75 increase (thats what Brice at Alamo charges for three pulls anyway) to throw the car up on the dyno to see the hard numbers to me and my budget. I realize that it's not worth it or that important to a whole lot of other people as well though. From what I saw during another flash on a stock Evo you should be pleasantly surprised with the outcome of the flash on your stock car.

 

A few thoughts on Dyno vs. No Dyno

First and most importantly. . . you dont drive your car on the dyno. I have yet to see the dyno which loads the car exactly like the road. Its impossible to duplicate the air flow, wind resisitance and actual load of real driving on a road or track.

Sure you can come close and you can appoximate the street with a good dyno. After a LOT of practice with a particular INDIVIDUAL dyno you can learn how to work the car coolant temps and boost so you can come reasonably close to a real street pull. However, I found in my frequent travels that it gets very hard when using a strange dyno in a stange shop to conduct an accurate tune. In many cases I found myself doing the acutral tuning on the street and then straping the car to the dyno to do a few pulls at the end.

What I cant stand is rushing a car and doing a half assed job and usually most dyno shops charge X amount an hour.

In this case - I am giving you guys a full 2.25 hours per guy which would probably equal over 30 tuning pulls per car. Simply put it would probably double the price to conduct a 2,25 dyno tuning session.

What may be feasable is to tune the cars on the road first and then put it on the dyno to see what the numbers are. I can feel what the numbers are also just by the way the car drives.

I have seen cars which have come off a dyno tuning session which ran too lean and pulled timing when driven on a road.

Just some food for thought

 

One spot left

 

Ok, the last spot is filled. Evobig16G and John, whenever you receive word from Al that your deposits are paid, please let me know and I'll make the notation. Thanks.

 

I am not sure who's real name and whoe's Evo M names match up !

BTW - could you please add in one time slot on Friday night from 8:30 p.m. to 10:45 p.m. - and

one slot on Sunday AM from 10:30 a.m. - 12:45 p.m

I think That is all I can do on this trip

Again - no base flashes of any kind will be offered on this trip - custom tuning only

Thanks and looking forward to giving you guys some very excelent service.

Finally - would everyone please post a complete list of mods and also indicate inteneded driving use for car - thanks

 

Mods: None (and, other than the custom flash, I do not plan on any future mods)

Intended Driving Use:
90%: daily-driver-type driving, some of which includes monthly highway roadtrips.
10%: like Steve Mcqueen in Bullitt!!!
(But, I don't race it.)

 

Al, Please check for a PM from me re this issue. Thanks.
