I'm in Dru,
Let's figure out a date and I say we go back to DaSilva. Like Jamie said, "they know how to tune a dyno and not f**k up your car too".
Plain and simple... Pats a douche!!! Sry, Ask tony for pictures of his SVT.
Anyway, I am volunteering again for being the West end Collector for the Deposit or the full fee. Which is all in cash BTW...
We had a blast last time, that being said yes we were rushed. Reason being they had to leave early because they had a huge Drag racing event with his son being involved at Cayuga. So seriously they did their job and said a big thank you at the end. What more could you ask for, really??
Sooo, I guess I'm gonna have to get my ass in gear and get the Cams, UDP, Injectors and a new tune in from FS to try and make the High Middle section for the power bands I imagine everyone will be putting out.
April is a busy month for me. I am doing some classes at Humber for a DZ License so I can get a good paying job with a future for a family. But I'm good after mid-June. Let's see if we can maybe get something for July that way people have enough time to group together and build up what they got. Plus the weather is usually good then too.
As for something to do after that, we could try and find a go-cart track or head to a place for some grub, a cruise and some photos.
I'm really looking forward for this event.

And Daniel and I need AWD dynos, LOL! Just in case the ZX3 isn't ready in time.
Yup, Neetronics in Oakville has an AWD dyno and I'd
really like to be able to dyno with the Focus'es just so they can hear what new surprise I have this year

Ohh, you got a rumble maker did ya??????
ya can we investigate other places rather than dasilva?
Sorry but I won't be able to host a dyno day at any other location other than DaSilva, and trust me rates across the board are usally $50 for two pulls WITHOUT Air Fuel. Neetronics has a great facility but they are more expensive because its AWD and as for Steeda I have dynoed and tuned there aswell and I was not impressed at all. Pat is a nice guy but for the actual dyno there skills are lacking. John you are Right I forgot that Matt was racing that weekend he rushed it a bit more so he could get out to the OSCA event I'll take that into consideration when were talking about dates.
I'm just going to say this now - I am not going to drive out from Ottawa if we're going to get the same treatment as last time.
A bit more of a welcoming environment would be nice.
Considering his son was racing and that's why he rushed out, it shouldn't be too hard to avoid that situation again.
ok i've got one buddy so far who wants to come. He's driving a 07 Mazda 3 with a few mods and is itching to come if the mazda guys from down south show up too.
i'll post it there once we have more details, and you guys all tell me you're cool with them being there.
I drive by DaSilva almost everyday from work and they already have bad ass looking mustangs outs on the lot for tuning and what not. I mean these Stangs look beautiful.
Last time I was at Neetronics with group dyno day it was $100 for 3 pulls I believe. I k ow one of the guys from that shop pretty well and can ask what kind of pricing he can do for this club.
Depending on my work schedule and what time I have to get ready for this get-together, I might honestly want to get in on some AWD dyno action. If you can check into it Nik, go nuts.

No, people like dynojets because they get higher numbers. I wouldn't say they are
far more accurate than a MD.

Theres 3 Dyno's in town here you can use. KVR's MD AWD dyno, and it was $80 for 2 pulls for me last year.

tell me how oscar made more power at steedas MD than at dasilvas dynojet? LOL
also, when we went to steeda, my car made 139whp and 165wtq, that is simply not possible for a 2.0l w/ I/H/E tune etc... atleast the Dynojet was giving us pretty accurate numbers by comparison to comparable cars that have had other dynos done in other areas of the world.
I bet pat doesnt know how to calibrate the dyno properly, not only that but they are morons for everything that they have done in the past to people. IE tony's SVT and they still last i heard around christmas have not made things right
Didn't do an oil change beforehand, bad spark plugs, warmer day.

LOTS of factors to play in. what was the temp that day? humidity levels? Was the dyno properly calibrated? tons and tons of others.

Dyno operator is huge. Dont knock MD because some guy doesnt know what he's doing. I've been on 3 different dyno's with my subie and all were within 10HP of eachother.

I have no intentions of standing up for Pat - I had some rough experiences with him myself - both on the Fusion and the Focus ... but to be fair, his business is 99% Mustangs and his dyno is set up for his Mustang customers - he did let us know in no uncertain terms that he did not reconfigure the dyno for our Foci FWIW.

Let's just say when I light up the car first thing in the morning now, those Mustang Bullitt rims (when they go back on) are gonna make a lot more sense
and when I hit the gas?
C'mon weather, get warm & stay that way
NefCanuck
Dan you can't say those things and then not tell us what you're talking about.
Patience young grasshopper, but I need an assistant to record what I've done
NefCanuck
