Without starting a vendor war here, let me please respond to the last post.

As far as the 8 second Evo, we give props to BR for that. Beleive me, I know he's been working for it for a long time. We don't have a drag evo. We didn't want a drag evo. Mike has his PERSONAL street car that he puts some minor mods on. He doesn't go all out on it. Now, with that said, we aren't as big into Drag Racing, as we are into say RALLY. Our Rally Evo 4 took 3rd in the last race it was in. It was less then a minute behind Travis Pastrana's WRC prepped car. By the way, this was the first race in which we had a chance to put our powerplant in the car. As far as pulling customers in with decent prices, thats right. We buy a lot of stuff, so we get good pricing, and can sell it cheaper. Are you going to pay more for the same product?

If you're really upset, email me with your gripe. Let me take a look at it, and maybe I can help make it right.

It's only an email, what can it hurt? There are guys who will read this who have talked to me, and I've gone out of my way to make it right. Its up to them to post, but I'll do my best to help everyone.

ok back from buschur racing first off a big thumbs up to dave straight forward guy took his time set me up however i wanted to run the car and leaded me in the right direction with great advice. the results are in right off the dyno sheets first is pump gas 380whp/306lb.ft @ 21.5psi tourque curve is flat as hell and all the way to redline honestly it never falls off like the stock turbo , as well as hp all the way to 7k its on a rise more revs would = more power for sure dave stopped the testing at 7k. now for 104 octane same map just more boost 420whp/336lb.ft. @ 25.5 psi once again power all the way out both hp and tq. i am sure if he would have mapped a second map for the 104 we could have gotten more but we were already on the dyno 3hrs at that point . both tunes are very conservitive low 11afr's but pulls like a raped ape none the less

Wow Dan that is bad ****! Im happy to see you getting your car really going! As for slowboy, Its okay to defend yourself but everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I personally think the whole your dyno is better then mine is retarted. who cares! I was personally curious myself as to the number posted by denny. it dons't' matter either way. Seems stikiller was just curious to me. Now as for Travis pastrans car being WRC preped. LOL. He is not that good yet or he would be racing WRC. Not that its a bad preped cars but. I congratulate you guys for a 3rd. But, i've been to a few of rally america series races. Its not WRC level. Sure Travis beat a WRC champion in the x-games but sometime you have good days and bad.

OK, now I'm curious since you're the second one to say something...Why the curiosity about my numbers? Are they that far off either way from what everyone expects to see? I don't get it? I don't see the problem - I am running about 3.5 lbs of boost now than when I got on the dyno and I'm making about 35 WHP more now - that sounds right to me.

Personally, the only thing that matters to me is that I made more when I left a dyno - any dyno - than when I got on. I don't just pull numbers out of my *** - I have only stated the numbers as presented to me.

Can someone explain this to me? Am I missing something?

yo denny i thought that u would make that power that u made based off of my experience with that dyno, and the mods that u have . dyno numbers are just that numbers there is only one way on the track. yeah it is true u gotta know how to launch to get good e.t.'s but mph usually remain pretty close even when u fock up a launch. the first 1/8 is the driver the last 1/8 is the car and the power it makes aka trap speed. that is the benifit of racing ur car regardless of mods or lack thereof, not only to hone your skills but to see before and after effects in your mph

Yeah Dan - you called it before I went when you said mid 300's. I just don't understand why people are curious...are they curious because they think they are high or low? The numbers are right where I thought they would be based on what everyone else has said about the differences between Buschur's and SBR's. Hell even Al thought I would be around 330 WHP on SBR - that was one of the VERY few things he actually said to me out there As I said, when I got on SBR's w/ Al's tune - that's right about where I was. And getting 35 whp out of meth does not seem out of line tom me either.

So why the HELL aren't you out driving your beast? Will you be out anywhere tomorrow? I'd like to see it.

I'm dying to do it, but I am scared ****less LOL - I've never even been up to watch so I don't know what I'm doing, plus I've never launched it even on the street, and I'm afraid to lose my clutch (WHAT A LOSER! )

Seriously though, I would like to give it a shot before the season is over, so if anyone is going tomorrow, please let me know because I would like to go with someone else for my first time.

Thanks Dan!

here is quick advice bounce it off of that 5k limiter and dump the clutch seriously while floorin it. that is how u launch the stock clutch without killin it strait dumpin. and really that 5k limiter will make u bog really the sweat spot is 6k with the dump. u have to do a search on how to disengage that fake 5k 2step

I've been on a dynojet when travman tried to drive off it with his turbo crx. **** that ****. I've put my eclipse on huml's dynapack two times and been on a mustang one time. Mind you, I'm about as honest as they come (and I've had a few beers to honest me up even more) so I'm i'm in the mood to **** everyone off (sorry travis and mike).

Dynos are great in the winter when their is snow on the ground. They are also great for breaking in motors and getting a *BASE* tune. Hell they might even be nice for messing around with cams and mivec changes. What the ****, they are also fine for tuning hondus that have MAP setups and det cans (****ing mitsus on AEM's as well). They ****ing suck my dick for everything else (besides fixing intermittent misfiring issues).

Go to the ****ing track and see how your ***** traps. That is the power the car makes and it is mostly isolated from the driver. The driver gets the ET the motor gets the MPH. Every ****ing time I or somebody else's car has been on a dyno they had to be retuned.

Get a ****ing car on the track, with real ****ing air and humidity moving over it.

Now that I'm done pissing everybody off I'm a fan of the dynapack. Not because I like to suck anybodys ****, but because I like how you don't have to worry about your car falling off the dyno. I also like how you can load the car down and/or hold a certian engine speed to tune out a problem that is otherwise impossible to adress.
