Hello everyone. I just want to say thank you to Lucas, Aaron, Myles, Billy, Bob (for not getting mad (when I made a bit of a mess on his dyno) , and to the whole Drift Office crew. Im happy to say I made the most power on that dyno at 436. Only difference is I installed better valve springs, and fixed my lifters finally. I had 3 bad lifters, and thanks to Greg at Gsc I no longer have that issue.

I know you all want to hear about the mess I made on the dyno. At the end of the first pull my dipstick blew out and it sprayed oil all over. Luckily it appears there is no actual damage, and the dipstick let out the pressure. Needless to say when that happened and they thought it sprayed oil and water, I nearly crapped my pants. That is about one of the worst feelings I ever had. If anyone wants to see the video of it is on youtube. I dont see oil spraying but you definately see the dipstick pop out.

Here is the youtube link:

Just made it home nice and safe.

Wanted to thank everyone for letting us tune your cars. Was a great weekend for Aaron and I. Everything went pretty smooth for doing 25 cars or so.

Also wanted to Thank Bob at DriftOffice for being a great host and letting us use his Dyno.

Big thanks to ER as usual, hopefully I was one of the more painless customers of the weekend. I know the silver IX on Saturday was a breeze but blackie on Sunday provided some unnecessary smoke showage due to some damn 40 series tires on 18" wheels rubbing the rear fender lips (gotta cut and pull those bastards). Was very pleased wth the numbers El negro put down, 345whp with a 3" dp/tp/catback (stock O2), intake, perrin filter, MBC, and 255lph FP. That's quite a bit better than my silver did with the same mods.

Cheers to ER for providing some killer service, you guys work your asses off and we appreciate it!

Thanks everyone that was able to come out and hang out with us for the weekend. Its always fun whether we tune the cars or y'all just come to watch.

Thanks-

NW Evo Community
Bob & Bill and all the DO crew both days
Sergie and Nick for entertaining diesel conversation at dinner (sorry about your head Serg)
Lucas, Billy, and Myles for making this fun and easy

I honestly think this was one of the least stressful dyno days for me. While I might be a bit of a sissy I dont normally deal with car issues on dyno days but everyone pitched in and fixed what needed fixed and things operated smoothly. Might seem like a small deal but I appreciated it for sure

Billy and Myles...wow keeping it real and freezing your butts off (I know everyone did). Luke and I had orders to fill and always had things ready steady go so thanks again.

Bill@Drift Office, thanks for the discussion about the ViPec I feel alot more confident with it now.

Look forward to the season opener next year...most likely in April we are thinking.

Thanks again everybody for your continued support

I know the feeling. My old DSM **** the oil filter a few years back on the DO dyno a few years back and of course I was the first on the rollers that day. Worst feeling to hear your car shut down on a pull at about 8k rpms and step out the rest room to see the shop filled with smoke and all the oil in your motor coming out on the dyno.

sorry I missed it, guys. First one I think I missed in a couple years (got home from Intel @ ~5A Sunday and passed the fugg out!). Sounds like it was a good day had by all! I always worry too many things will "come up" forcing the ER crew to cut their losses and rethink coming back. Sounds like that didn't happen, so way to represent NW crew!
