Well, dynodynamics tend to read lower than most dyno's. It is approx a ~12% difference between a dynodynamics and a Dynojet Dyno. Silver dollar seems to have better times too with it being closer to sea level. Try commerce and see what you run there, it will probably hurt your feelings.

Jeff, do you have an XEDEflash for your ECU? This raises the boost cut and sets the rev limit to 7850. That is probably the reason why you cannot run higher boost levels.

well, at the track i usually go to(hooks hella better) i ran a 12.40 @108.5 on 93 octane. thats 290whp on the DD.

i will show you a 11.8 timeslip in a couple weeks with the same exact trap as i had at reynolds. Your et is really whats effected by sea level, its the traps. people have run 11.9s with 113.5 traps. I just couldn't get the short time to do it in reynolds, track was too slick. and i think its more like 14% lower than a dynojet

yes, i have an xedeflash, and am running higher boost. the car just wouldn't make it on andrew's dyno when i dynoed a couple months back. I added a pill and now can make all the boost i desire!

I have the run on video. If I can learn how to install my stinking fire wire card, I'll post it up. Someone from GADSM has it on video, too. I'm trying to get him to e-mail it to me.

Thanks.

I was a little pink last night but now my face is tan. Hehehe, one of the benifits on not being completely cracka - I save money on sunscreen. :P

I was pretty proud of myself, lol! 12.3 is hard to do with a stock clutch. Time to start saving for an aftermarket one, mine won't take much more abuse I'm sure, ha!

yea, Val. I have the excedy triple carbon/carbon. It's ok launching that. You have to warm it up or else it acts like it's slipping. That's a pain in the butt. On the up side it is really good driving it on the street, despite what most people think about driving a triple on the street.

****, let go Sunday. Dan will be out of town. Look for pics of the *** on IA in the coverage section. I don't think they are up yet! :P

This triple is soft. But I understand. You should drive my car and see how you like it.

This event was SWEET! I was down in the lanes for most of the day with the video camera. Yes I was the bald guy with the severely burned noggin. I have a ton of video that will be edited and then I will post some of them. Many fast cars at this event and a GREAT turnout.

Tracy if your going to commerce this weekend I might be able to get away if you want to video it, but I don't have a ride there. I'll send you a PM just in case.
