Dyno Day (11.15.08)

Over the last couple weeks or so, I have been in contact with my tuner Harvey, and the people at Super Rupair in Boulder. For those of you who don't know the shop, they do most of the tuning of AWD cars (mainly Subarus) in the Boulder area. Super Rupair has a Dyno Dynamics dyno which reads lower then others like the Dynojet. This is where it gets the name, "The Heartbreaker." That means if you put down high numbers here, your in good shape. I figured it would be cool to get a group of cars together for a dyno day before they get put away for the winter. As this is an AWD capable dyno, any drivetrain configuration is acceptable.

This dyno day will be held Saturday, November 15th at the discounted rate of only $50.00 a car for members of 6 Speed and Ferrari Chat ONLY. That $50 includes 3 dyno runs with curves such as horsepower, torque, Air Fuel Ratios, boost if applicable and print outs of your runs. If anybody was wondering what your car really puts down over a mile high in altitude, this is your shot. The dyno day will be limited to a total of 30 cars so get your name on the list ASAP. Once I get a copy of the liability waver from Harv, I will post the PDF here.

NOTE: Cars with automatic transmissions sometimes have trouble in the dyno. If the car downshifts during a pull, it will try and jump off the dyno. That said, unless you can make your automatic transmission stay in one gear for the entire RPM band, you should not sign up your car.

Here is their address:

Super Rupair Inc.
1309 Yarmouth Ave
Boulder, Colorado 80304
phone: 303-442-6508
toll free: 888-442-6508

I will make a list of everyone who is interested and then assign time slots.

 

I just attached the PDF of the waver. If you could sign that and bring it in with you that would be great.

You got that right. Derek, you should bring the Scud in for a run! Thanks for letting me come by the other day by the way. I didn't get so say goodbye because I was in the back talking with John (I think it was) for a super long time. I didnt realize it but the place was closed down by the time we left. Anyways, I will be done editing the photos from that day soon and will make a post about it.

As for the rest of you, I want to see some F cars there! Right now it looks like we have an 08 Gallardo, a 500hp Audi Ur quattro and a 911tt. Hope to see you there.

 

Alright eveyone, this weekend is coming quick. Dust off the fcar and get it on the dyno!

 

This is tomorrow. If anyone does plan on coming, the dyno opens at 9am and you should plan on being there around then.
