SoCal Dyno Day

Date: 5/17/2003

Location: Autolink Motorworks

Address: 4961 Santa Anita Ave. Suite A
Temple City, California 91780

Time: 11am-5pm


The price is $40 for 3 dyno runs, and a printout of the results. The friendly staff at Autolink will be providing all of us with FREE FOOD AND FREE DRINKS. So even if you dont wanna dyno your car, stop by and lets have some fun. Any 2wd vehicle is welcome to come, anything from Fords, to VWs, to Chevys, to Hondas, anything that wants to see how much power it has is welcome. (just no 4wd cars, but soon )

I am taking appointments right now for those of you interested. This is how it will work:

We will have a appointment every 30 min, so first appointment will be at 11:00am. And once that person has had their car dynoed, we will take walk-ins until 11:30 which is when the next appointment will be. Then after the 11:30 appointment we will take another set of walk-ins until 12:00pm when the next appointment is, and so on and so forth.

Lunch is from 1pm-2pm, so no dyno'ing during that hour.

I will be taking appointments between the hours 11am -3:30pm, so if you are interested please IM me.

Then everything from 3:30pm-5:00pm will be open walk-in dyno.

If you want your car dynoed, please be sure you have full exhaust, no open header, TOW HOOKS UP FRONT on hondas is a must.

If you have any more questions please feel free to IM me.

Thank you

i'm down if i get my exhaust done by then

 

sounds cool, maybe i'll swing by to check things out. wont dyno until i actually make power

 

Cool, what kind of dyno do they use there? Also will they be giving us an A/F reading as well?

 

Since when did you start working at Autolink, Arno?

 

I dont work there Lloyd, Clay just asked me to put up the thread for them, so i did.

At todays dyno day we just handed out hp/tq printouts, but im sure we can arrange something for A/F, just ask them on the dyno day if you show up.

Thanks
Arno

1000HP Clayton dyno.

How does the readings from a Clayton differ from, say, a Dynojet?

 

up we go,

 

Why is it that dyno days always fall on a Saturday that I work? I don't have tow hooks on my Civic anyway, Z10's. Oh well, have fun guys.

 

and arno, think you'll get the new motor in by then?

 

the doc himself will be there

You talking about Charles? Is that where he went after Area 51 shut down? I wanted to get my car tuned by him at some point and was pissed when I found out Area 51 was gone.

 

So how does the clayton dyno numbers relate to dynojet?

 

I think the Clayton dynos higher, at least that's what it seemed like in that article in Turbo Magazine where they dynoed a car on all the different dynos in the area.

really, by how much?

 

We had the article posted on Team Integra before, let me see if I can find it.

edit- found it, add .orig.jpg to the end of the image location to get the readable size

hmm.
I saw a CTR motor with bolt-ons putting down 165 whp and my friends B18C-R with bolt-ons made 170 whp. This was on a Clayton at Area51 a few months ago..

that seems about right, so the numbers should be the same..

 

I just wanted to make sure because I'm looking to get a baseline and I don't want the numbers to be way off in case I'm obligated to get a second dyno run at a shop with a different machine.

 

Tow hookups? Do you mean those two gray metal things underneath the front of the car?

If I get my Spoon N1 from Mike by then, I'm down to go.

 

Does $40/3 runs include wideband 02??

I'm 2xxx miles away, but trying to gauge what a good price for a dyno day is....

 

All stock Hondas will have the hooks unless you removed them.

It's best to just always use the same dyno and shop. Otherwise you'll have to get a new baseline once you switch dyno's. They aren't created equal.

yea after area51 closed, the doc went back to autolink and brought his dyno from area51 with him. my friends were there last saturday tuning their cars, but unfortunately i was too busy so i couldnt make it. maybe ill be there on the 17th.

 

Doc Knows his ****. LEts see how many cars we can get there that day. Come on guys this is a great price and it will be fun. I know i'll have fun
