    Wellington Dyno Chat Thread

    Hey all,

    While talking to Pierre and Wynn tonight there was the suggestion of us having a dyno day here in Welly.

    As Wynn and I have already been to Speedtech for previous power runs, Speedtech will be our prefered venue.

    Usually the costs are $50 for a 2wd car and $100 for a 4wd car + $10 for AFR.

    From previous discussions with Speedtech, we will need 10 cars to make it viable for us to get this off the ground, anyone interested, will be a saturday?

    J

    Currently interested:
    Jeremy(Candee) - Tip FL Galant
    Pierre(PBaron) - Manual PFL Galant
    Wynn(VR4MAD) - secret squirel vr4 thingy...
    Mike(low_vr4) - Manual FL Leggie
    Scott(holure) - Manual PFL Leggie
    Karl(karlous54) - Manual FL Galant(V)
    Cam - Wild Mirage RS - scrached - blown motor @ NIMM
    Ray(KNUTZ) - Auto PFL Leggie

    And to help ensure we get the required minimum of 10, friends with non VR4's will be welcome.

    Do we have any idea of the time frame for this Jeremy? Late this month?, sometime December or are we thinking something more like in the new year?



    PS - I'll need to lift the ride hight or I'll never get into Speedtechs dyno booth................ ha ha

    I have to have a talk with Speedtech about dates, but will most likely be in the new year, but will confirm with them.

    I dont think you will have a problem getting into the booth, its just them putting it on the dyno will be the problem.

    Oh and PS pass this onto Barry for Cam tomorrow if you please sir.

    I have spoken to Doug & Ben @ Speedtech and they are going to nut out some prospective dates. These will depend on mainly when the drag meets are on so they can support their customers.

    We are looking at late Jan/sometime in feb, which will give people a chance to catch up on servicing and save up the $$.

    Costs are the same as above, and we will be limited to 10 cars if all are 4wd, adding 2/3 to it if there are some 2wd cars in there too.

    Tis a good chance to get an idea on what your car is doing powerwise(or as a baseline if you havent done anything yet), and see where you have room for improvement. Will be interested to see how far over my last score my car will be.

    Ok guys have been speaking with Doug @ Speedtech, and we have penciled in 26 Feb, but that is subject to change/agreement of the operations manager(though I have a feeling we will be looking at March though).

    The main delay is the 4 & Rotary Nationals, with the guys attending the meets with the dyno.

    Will update once I know more.
