Northwest Evolutions Dyno Day!!!
I think everybody had at least one sort of mod on their car. I think one of the guys who only had a CatBack exhaust ran 208 HP to the wheels. Thats the closest I think we had to stock. Sorry

The dynapak dyno is pretty much the cadillac of dyno's! True load bearing via an absolute known measurement method.. Hydrolics. I have found that the Dynapak tends to read higher then normal roller based dynos because the dynapak actually loads the car down properly. You will build full boost and hold it all the way through. Yep.. The dynapak is an awesome tool for tuning!! Glad everything went good guys!
I think that the guy that was driving our cars at Axiom didn't know our cars well enough to dyno them. I think that the HP was off, to be honest with you. It is messed up that we weren't able to drive/dyno our own cars, especially when we know our own rides the best. Oh well though, looks like I won't ever dyno my cars there again.
I mean, our 2nd gen Eclipse runs a 12.9 on the 1/4 mile drag and it only got 264 to the wheel when they dyno'ed it at Axiom. Doesn't that seem a little low???? I don't know...

i've been to other dynos like FAME in Redmond and Matrix in Portland and neither of those places let you drive your own car either.
