RE: Took the Mach1 to the Dyno!!
I see they running the dyno on smoothing so it makes your horsepower look very smooth.I dont understand why dyno shops do that??its like using corrected horsepower which makes it look like its making more power[sm=dontgetit.gif]
Either way man...Nice you going for Jdan now??
How do you get the pictures in there so big?when i try it says file to large...GRRRRR

I was impressed...the guy told me that my air/fuel was right on the money and that the car seemed to be runnin realy strong...so i was happy
. Now its time to break the 300 rwhp mark!! Any sugestions? but no turbos or blowers...and no nitruos...my warranty hasnt run out yet.

20% loss?
More likely than not.
Running a big stall?
Got heavy aftermarket wheels?
You can be a little more realistic with it w/ 15%

RE: Took the Mach1 to the Dyno!!
that is what i thought...but the guy at the Dyno shop told me that it was probably 20% unless i had a really good drivetrain so i was just like...ok...w/e...
