Who here would like to see Vishnu vs DynoFlash in Sport Compact Car?

Hi All,

Apparently Sport Compact Car magazine is having a run-off/competition of some type in February. I don't know the nature of the article they're putting together, but I do know that they've invited Shiv from Vishnu to bring his car. Al from DynoFlash has mentioned on these boards a few times that he would be very interested to have the opportunity to participate in this event.

Given the different approaches that Vishnu and DynoFlash use, I'm sure that we'd all like to see a direct moderated shoot-out with both of them participating. Rather than clog SCC's email inbox, I'm going to send Senior Editor Josh Jacquot an email with a link to this post.

If you'd like to express your interest in seeing both Vishnu and DynoFlash invited to run their Evo VIIIs and tuning methods against each other in some sort of moderated shootout in Sport Compact Car Magazine, please post here.

Regards,

--Josh

We'd all like to see it in print and stop hearing about this petty childish name calling stuff in these forums...

You should have made this poll so more people would vote/post. Anyway, I think they should both compete in the SCC article.

I'd love to see some sort of unbiased evaluation of these 2 guys and their respective approaches to modifying the EVO. I'm all for Al's participation on this "shoot-out". However, I doubt seriously that SCC will either let Al participate or if they do, they'll be fair to him or his system..... After all, Shiv seems to be extremely well connected with those SCC people
Anyway, my vote is for Al vs. Shiv shootout SCC

Let them both participate along with a bunch of others. Not letting the guy who holds the record for fastest and quickest 1/4 participate is lame.

For the record, here's the email that I've just sent to the editor at SCC:


Hello Josh,

Apparently Sport Compact Car magazine is having a run-off/competition of some type in February. I don't know the nature of the article, but I understand that you've invited Shiv from Vishnu to bring his car. Al from DynoFlash has mentioned on the EvolutionM.net message boards a few times that he would be very interested to have the opportunity to participate in this event.

Vishnu tuned cars have been featured in a number of Sport Compact Car articles, including Vishnu's contribution to this month's Project Evo article. Given the different approaches that Vishnu and DynoFlash use, there are a lot of Evo owners who would like to see a direct moderated shoot-out with both of them participating. Personally I think that it would be interesting to see both how each company's project cars compare as well as how each company's engine tuning approach compares when used on an otherwise stock car.

Rather than clogging your inbox with other owner's support for this request, I've created a post on the EvoultionM.net forum where you can monitor the interest in such an article or articles. This post can be found here:

Any article about modified EVOs is a fine idea in my opinion. Vishnu and Dynoflash seem to be the top two tuners, why not let the EVO owners have some say in who competes in this article?!

I'm always up for reading things in print about the Evo.

Sounds like a great idea, we need to see more comparisons with different tuners/manufacturers for the Evo in SCC! I remember way back when...SCC did a tuner/manu. comparison with the WRX...
This sounds like a great idea!

Maybe consider Vishnu, Dynoflash, Works, Turbo XS, Buschur, etc...would be awesome to see a tuner face off!

some in depth dyno testing for every stage of each manufacturer's products sounds great.
