Drift office dyno day

A nice day and nice cars! Thanks to English and the Drift office for the event. Was good to meet some fellow evo owners since im fairly new to the scene. Can't wait to get the other evo out of the garage this summer! See you all again soon.

^nice to meet you and talk for a bit, and sorry I had to bounce right after getting off the dyno. I had a nephew's first bday to get to.

dammit I hate pump gas...

but, it will probably motivate me to finally make the jump to ethanol. need to get to ER and let them camp on my car anyway, so might as well make the trip worthwhile!

Just wanted to give a huge thanks to English Racing for making the trek north to cater to our tuning needs. Another huge thanks to the guys at Drift Office for graciously hosting their time, help and dyno to make all of this happen.

I threw together some of the video I had taken. I gave the other footage to Tony since I'm sure he's putting together a collection from the day.

Thanks to Aaron for tuning with the **** box Cat I have on there. Test Pipe is on order and I will be heading back down to see you guys in Vancouver for a retune.

I put up an unimpressive 420/400 @ ~24psi on straight pump. My car was being a noisy biatch and there isn't time at a dyno day to camp on a car for too long. Basically I need to get down to ER and let them do their magic for a couple days.

I kind of knew that last time I dyno'd, but haven't had the time to get down to Vancouver. I basically just got up on the rollers as I wanted a straight pump tune (I've been on a meth tune for a long time). Hopefully in the next month or so. At which point I might finally be ready to make the switch to korn.

I wouldnt say that. 239whp is a stock Evo 8 at 19psi. We had one car come in and make 192whp at one event...and it was an Evo.

I did not know that. Not bad then for a stock SOHC motor @ 14lb's lol. Cant wait to see what you guys can do when we get the built motor back in and turn it up. For a car thats been paid off for 10 years I can't complain & can't give you enough compliments for tune Aaron you truly do amazing work as well as everyone at ER. Thanks again .

He's running a 2.4, and I don't think it is bad at all considering it is now strictly pump gas and no more methanol. I much rather be on the safe side than trying to push too much on pump gas.
