Nick's FP Red Built Evo 9!
Oil pan needs to be removed then it gets tedious.
Small world.
Sorry missed the "Evo 9" in the title I have been up since 4 am. I really wasn't trying to compare my numbers with yours I was just curious cause I looked at the dyno graph and notice spoolin quicker then mine and as we know that is MIVEC. But I plan having Jimmy and Junior doing some meth and 3 port boost solenoid with a Tephra mod over the winter should make for a short life on my ACT clutch...
DG once again great job.

Whats up everyone, I'm Nick. Sorry to DG for taking so long to get on this thread... been real busy with work.
Just my 2 cents to everyone on here. DG is a great shop full of great dudes. My evo is my baby and I don't just drop it off to anone when I want work done. Someone already statd that they like Pete because he's a straight up guy. That's the exact truth, any questions, concerns, or ideas for him or his crew and they'll let you know what they think without bull****ting you. Not only that but they really take pride in what they do and spend enough time to do it the right way
The car is tuned out and makes nice smooth power. Good spool up, not bad partial throttle, and just plain nast at WOT. I love the JMF o2 dump too(obnoxiously loud when the WG opens) but on a DD car I would prob recommend against it. I was content with the power it made, it may seem low but with respect to the dyno and the correction factor the numbers are right where they should be. It also would've squeaked out a few more whp but the ported TB had to be replaced we the stocker because it was causing some issues.
Future plans are to build the bottom end and run meth to really make the car rip, but at the moment I'm just spending some time enjoying what seemed like a forever build.
Once again, big thanks to DG for helping me get my car set up right! Check them out folks, they do great work.

Take care and enjoy!
It happens from time to time depending how the car ramps up on the rollers, that is nothing tune related. The way the car spools up will sometimes give that little spike for some odd reason.
The hand held controller for this dyno is slightly different than your average. You have to go through a process in order to ramp a car up and then you have to end the car's pull as well.
It is a 4 button process and you have to really be on time to get the perfect pull.
Here is a short break down:
1.Load Off
2.Stabilize
3.Ramp up
4.Ramp End
Now you have to cruise in the Load Off section first. Get to the rpm you want to start. Next you have to click up into stabilize which will lock the car in place on the rollers. You then hit ramp up and this is where it gets tricky, the stabilize function will load the car up slightly so to speak by forcing it "not" to ramp up too fast at first. Lastly you hit ramp end to stop the car from graphing.
It is virtually impossible to time everything 100% since every car spools and ramps up differently at different rpms.
Sorry if that was confusing but anyone with this software and version of dyno knows how much of a PITA it is compared to a dynojet or mustang dyno.
To conclude everything the low rpm spike or the little spike you will see at peak torque from time to time is just a slight timing error on the dyno operator's behalf when the pull process begins....

Interesting. What model dyno dynamics dyno do you guys have?
