To All dyno day participants

Hello everyone,

Thank you for participating in PINA MOTORSPORTS first Evolution Dyno Day. Here are a couple of important points to note just to make sure that we will have the dyno day running smoothly and with as few bumps as possible.

PINA MOTORSPORTS is featuring Dyno Dynamics 4WD 2400 AWHP capable dyno platform machine. The platform is about 15" off the ground and cars will be driven up to the platform by means of a pair of ramps to do the run. After finishing the run, the cars will be driven off the platform at the end of the run thru the same pair of ramps. Handling of the cars for loading, unloading and dyno testing purposes will be solely by dyno operator ONLY. There will be NO exception to this rule.

The dyno is equipped with a couple of sensors. We have an intake temp sensor, tach sensor, a 5 bar MAP sensor, an injector pulsewidth sensor and a very nice Autronic wideband analyzer utilizing a laboratory grade wideband o2 sensor.

The intake temp sensor will be installed on the air filter.

The tach sensor will be installed on the coil/plug wires.

The 5 bar MAP sensor will be installed on the FPR vacuum line. If you have a zip tie or any other means of securing the line on the FPR vacuum line, please make sure that it is taken out before the car is loaded onto the platform for testing. It is the car owner's sole responsibility to put another zip tie or any other means of securing the line on the FPR vacuum line once the test is done and the car is unloaded off the platform.

The injector pulsewidth sensor will be installed as a bypass on the injector with the easiest access point. If you want to have the injector pulsewidth reading taken, please make sure to take out the metal clip that secures the stock injector connector onto the injector once you have arrived at the shop. It is the car owner's sole responsibility to put the metal clip back on to the stock connector once the test is done and the car is unloaded off the platform.

The wideband O2 sensor reading is going to be taken from the car's exhaust tip. The wideband sensor is going to be mounted on a long reach gun which will be inserted into the exhaust. The reading will be very accurate except if you have a cat. If you have a cat, reading should be taken pre-cat. On a group dyno day with multiple cars, this is not an option. It will take too much time to try to cool down the wideband sensor, take it out of the sniffer gun, take out a plug/ the factory o2 sensor and put the wideband sensor in there.

Each car will have 4 runs. The first run is going to be done with all the sensor except the wideband sensor attached. The first run is used to clear out all possible water accumulation in the exhaust. Water accumulation hitting the hot service-temperature O2 sensor will cause the sensor ceramic to crack. After the first run, the wideband sensor will be inserted into the exhaust and O2 data will be collected for the next 3 run.

Shop will be open promptly at 8am, and we will begin our dyno run for the day at 8:30am. First EVO to be loaded at 8:30am is expected to be ready at 8am to make sure that we are not going to be running behind. We will do 8 EVOs then followed by 2 1G DSMs.


Make sure your car is ready for the dyno. Check your fluids, check your mechanicals, and check your boost leak before the dyno runs. If you have to fix a mechanical problem/ tune your car on the dyno, it will be deducted out from your half an hour segment. Each person/ car will have half an hour total time on the platform. Your car will be taken off the platform at the end of the half an hour period or earlier depending on dyno operator discretion.

Strapping a car on a Dyno Dynamics machine is done differently than on other dynos. Instead of strapping the body of the car down, we strap the suspension down as to take suspension travel/hop out of the equation. Make sure that access to the underside of the car is not hampered. If you have a lower chassis plate, ie. Works plate, etc, take it off before the dyno session. Make sure that there will be easy acess to the rear suspension and front suspension.

Payments need to be taken care before the car is loaded onto the dyno. We will take cash or VISA/MC. Be aware that we will also have to charge tax for the government. For cash payment, contact your coordinator for special instruction. There is also a waiver that needs to be signed by each person at the event, NO exception. If you are bringing a guest to the event, she or he needs to also sign the waiver. An EVO at 8000 rpm is going be spinning the roller up to around 125mph or more depending on the horsepower level. It is very important to note this as a big safety hazard to everybody attending or being at the dyno event. That is why the waiver will have to be signed by everybody.

This is the list of cars that we are going to dyno tomorrow.
