OMG Internet!
Default Anybody going over the hill that wants a couple dyno pulls?

I have one of Ed's stock WRX wheels and tires in the back of my car and Ed has my spare. If anybody would be willing to pickup Ed's wheel from me at my work downtown and deliver it to DB Tuned in Roseville, and then bring my spare back from DB Tuned to my work, Ed and Paul will give you a couple pulls on DB Tune's dyno.

Any takers?

I may be heading down on Sunday for Father's Day, but my car is in the bodyshop, with little hope of getting done by Friday.

Unless they want to dyno a stock Mazda 6 V6, I'll pass on the Dyno'ing, but I could still bring the wheel down.

Thanks Nick. If nobody else contacts me before this weekend, I'll be in touch.

I'd love to dyno the miata, but a full size wheel and tire makes for poor company on the drive.

I too may be going to the bay this weekend... but if I go, it's 'cause I'm bringing the car down to Hayward for dyno tuning... which sorta defeats any value to stopping in Roseville, unloading the car, doing a few pulls, loading back up, driving to Hayward, and doing it all again.

You could confirm the suspicion that the DB Tuned dyno reads higher than Gruppe-S'.

Why does that matter? Dynos aren't meant for dick-swinging between companies.....

Or if they are, get a dyna-pack. They're the 24" rims of the dyno world!

It's always nice to know how much of a "heart breaker" a dyno really is...didn't mean to suggest that their should be any swinging of any gentalia. It would be silly for a company or a person to take such a comparison personally.

Word. Our Legacy 4EAT Reflash makes 450 pound feet of torque on the stock turbo!

Rockin. You've got a PM.

So don't keep me in suspense. What are you having done?
