I'll find out tomorrow (Monday) if I've got a new job. If so then I can raise the price range.

jus so evryone knows....the diff between a dynojet dyno and a mustang is almost none...if the shop has the dyno's udated and calibrated correctly there is no diff...the shop we did the viper vs supra dyno day in houston had both dyno's there....we made pulls on both dyno's with the same car....only 1 HP diff between...it's all in how the dyno shop takes care of it's equipment and updates....the advantage of the mustang is you can make the car act like a real road with loads and such so you can do drivability tuning and such on it compared to a dynojet which is half the price of a mustang..so where ever you guys wanna do it i'll take care of setting it up...we jus need to get enuff cars to do this so the shop doesn't lose it's ass or not want to do this for us again...i've done lots of dyno pulls and dyno days...it's both time consuming and tiring on the operator and the people helping put the cars in...last one i did we had 133 cars there...i was worn out...

Len, I don't care where you make it happen -- at least you're willing to do this for us and I really appreciate that.

Just make one happen...we will get 10 cars! I would even consider bringing my 3 (expensive but definitely would consider to make this happen)

Let's try for the late April...gives people time to plan and save.

The only problem w/ that weekend is Fun Ford in Houston....how about Sunday the 24th, it's still late in the month and most of us would be off. Also I just talked to Corey and it would be 45 per car 2-3 pulls w/af...he is willing to be open for us on the 24th.

it is known across the market that it's about a 15% "loss" on an mustang dyno vs. a dynojet. i still prefer to run on a dynojet, as many of us do. i'm down for a dynojet only (i already ran on a mustang dyno a month or so ago but wanna see the diff. edit: dang, can't compare after all. will have different mod config by then).


btw, thanks for spearheading this dyno day and making it happen. it should be fun!

yeah, my baseline runs were on a dynojet so I just want to keep that variable the same.

I think I might be down for this one. My last Dyno run was way back on 12/4/02. Need to see how much horsepower I lost between higher mileage and the stall converter.
