Default Dyno Day!

Aight guys,
We've been talking over at VWVortex and have decided to get a dyno day together next week. I know its somewhat short notice but we figured allot of the guys around here are heading off to school in the next two weeks so we gotta do it sooner than later.

The plan is to go next Friday the 17th. We contemplated going thursday the 16th but it sounds like more people can do it next friday so we'll probly shoot for that.

So far we have abut 4-5 guys comming.

Gaven - Big turbo Jetta
Danny - GTi
Andrew - Big turbo Talon
Norris - Big turbo GTi
Clay - 911 Carrera
Preston - 06 M3
Myself - S4

And maybe a couple others, including a few of you.

So, the plan is to go up to Winchester to AR Fab because they can do 2wd and AWD dyno pulls.

They said the more people we get, the more they'll come down on the price.

Originally its $100 for 3 pulls for 2wd and $135 for 3 pulls for awd...but after talking to the manager and telling him i've got a group together he said if we have 4 people we can do $80 (2wd) and $115 (awd) and if we get 5 people then $75 (2wd) and $110 (awd) and like -$5 off for every additional person past 5.

So if any of you guys are interested, POST Up!

We'll probly set the appointment for 1-2pm friday. We'd get a bite to eat, chill, then head out around 10-11am. It should only take us max 2.5 hours - probly more like 2-2 hrs and 15 mins since a few of us have Valentine 1's.

Anyways, let me know if you're interested!

Micah

Anything larger than a ko4 I guess heh.

Gaven has a smaller big turbo - but its good none the less. Its a T3 Super 60

Norris has a GT30 on his 1.8T - thats big enough for now isnt it?

Now we all are just curious to see what we're at.

For me we just finished the straight exhaust, FMIC, Giac softwear and MBC @ 23psi. So im wondering how much of an improvement all of those things have given me...then once I go big turbo i'll get to compare numbers.
