Dude, it's nice how we're building our little Utah intranetz! How everyone has their little plans and making moves here and there, it'll help it grow with everyone being down for one another. I'm drawaing out the plans for the shop behind my house I just built right now.
Thanks bro. I start with a light/medium polish (no compounding for me yet) then I follow up with a finishing polish to get rid of any of the micro-marring left by the first, more abrasive polish. From there I'll either go straight to a sealant or glaze + sealant. It's a long and tedious procedure but I get satisfaction out of it when the owner sees the finished car.

My thoughts exactly.

Sounds good to me, Let me know if you could use some help I really like our little group. Its bad *** to have more friends and some smart ones that know more then me And how evryone is trying to help each other out and not competing with one another. Its a sick familiy like group.

Ya I cant belive we went to school together what's the odds of that Ya let us know when you get back home we'll be here
Ya man I will Get you some # on size for the knobs...

I'm with Josh on this one!
The only way a Dyno is better when it's an Load based tune (when you set it up at every RPM, Load) If you are drag racing, you just want maximum acceleration. 90% of the race vehicles don't idle very good, or they load up as you put around on the return road.

im sure alot of you know Dan Bajalis's sick evo, jake did the tuning on this car

Yea I wasn't talking about Jake's dsm going 8's you said eagleclaw dsm went 8's

I know Dan personally very well man he is a good friend of Steve & I. I have a scar from helping work on that drag car and a video on my youtube from last time it was at the track Btw now it's tuned by David Buschur, he did it when he was in Vegas for Sema

Also the kid that took that picture is my good friend Alex

I agree too with Josh, thats why mustang dynos are good for tuning because they cause the most realistic road load and why I never minded being able to hop on my friends dyno but the #'s aren't as good as dynojet

Spot on Jason, if you are just tuning for wide open throttle, road tuning is decent but you still are going to get a better tune on a dyno both power wise and reliability wise. But you have to have a dyno that can do load cell tuning (aka eddy brake, current dynos) An inertia dyno will do a good job with WOT pulls but then u have to road tune to get the drivability down.

Street tunes have never done me or anyone else any wrong but the tuner on a street or dyno can do someone a lot of wrong

yep. thats why I am going to English THUMBS UP, I dont think many people know the evo better, and they just got a new Dyno there, DynoJet Linx 424xlc2


What is LINX ?

* Linx is a feature that lets us lock the 2 rollers together.
* Allows for peace of mind knowing the rollers can never spin at a different speed (possoble drive train damage)
* Alot of newer 2wd cars need to have the front wheels spnning to either be in there high power map, Not hurt the traction controll system
* Some AWD systems apply more hp to the rear wheels then the front. So if the front and rear rollers can spin at different speeds it can hurt the Drivetrain.
* In low RPM high power it lets us add dubble the load for a longer pull (Diesel)
