I'm getting mine dyno'd saturday..
I'll get the dyno tune from BAMA beforehand thanks to this thread,
just curious.
You start off in 1st, then manually shift to 4th?
Or did you guys just put it in D (with the tune and O/D off.)

Be aware that with the dyno tune it locks it in what I was told was 3rd. Which I don't understand because you can just put the gear selector in 3rd and not get those numbers. After I wasn't able to get much past 80 mph with the dyno tune and we thought I was stuck in 3rd, I called AM and they said that they limit it to prevent you from breaking your driveshaft (110 mph).
Let us know how you make out on sat.

Well guys, I took Chris's advice and got the dyno locked tune from BAMA and went back for another shot. I ended up with 207 hp and 220 tq, thats after temp and humidity correction. Also this is on a MD so the numbers may have been a little higher had it been a dynojet.
Those numbers sound better and I will use them as a baseline for after my Xtreme.

I like that idea! I'm headed to the track in about a week. Last time I wasn't tuned and it was warm out, at least 70. First time out ran 15.4 at 89.5 MPH. I'm hoping with the 93 tune and the fact that it will be muuuch cooler, I can break 90 and even maybe get to 95 MPH
