DYNO DAY at DC PERFORMANCE - Saturday, July 10, 2010

[PCH VIPER]

I will attend the Dyno Day on Saturday!

My car is a 2008 Coupe.  The only modification is a cat-back Corsa Exhaust.

Thanks!

Do you want me to come by and give you an escort?

[Ted]

Ahhh...if we can agree on a reasonable hour we would be happy to go together!  8:00am in Seal Beach is too early! 

We could leave by 9:30am from the HB hood.  Otherwise we will just meet you at DC.  My mobile is listed above in my earlier post.

Either way, we look forward to seeing you and your awesome ACR tear the dyno up!

I'll try to be quiet when I go by your house   <2
and not wake you up.

See you up at DC Perf.

Great to see you all again today!

Dan C.--thanks for everything!

As Dan E. (ViperX) suspected, my new 20" HRE wheels are in fact shorter than my OEM 19" wheels and this might have cost me a few ponies! (0.55 of an inch).  This probably explains why my 4th gear redline mph was 140 or 150mph while other stock Gen IVs were hitting 160mph.  For the sidewinder events I will put the stock shoes back on!

There were lots a great Vipers today!

ACR Eddie,
You need to come out and play with us at the track !
Driving the canyons are fun, but just you wait and see what it can do out on a track   =27

See ya soon!

Nice dyno day guys, maybe the best one yet!

Nice to see some new faces along with the older ones!

Great pics as usual Lance.

My ACR came to within 3 ponies of Mike Buckinghams in the peak HP race and made 571.35 rwhp.  Mike has been beating up on me since our first dyno day together.  The good news is that I managed to beat him in the rwtq by about 3!  Ok, so it was pretty close.....

Feeling all happy about my 09 ACR's performance on the dyno, I made the mistake of comparing it to dyno sheets of other cars.  It handily outperformed my Gen III coupe, though it was pretty close with the GTS for rwtq and the GTS actually made more rwtq down low than the 09 ACR though the ACR eventually passed it up top.

Then I made the mistake of comparing the ACR's dyno sheet to the 04 "Beasts".  The ACR made a very strong 547.86 rwtq that day at 5200 rpm.  The Beast makes, are you ready for this, about 600 rwtq at only 2250 rpm, goes on to reach 800 rwtq at 4500 rpm and peaks at over 860 rwtq at 5200 rpm thanks to DC's tuning on pump gas.

No wonder I keep breaking things, like transmissions!

I guess there's always somebody faster or making more hp / tq as I'm sure the twin turbo guys make even more hp / tq than my Paxton car.

Great day guys.  Hope to see you at the picnic for the "Tug o' War".

Holy *&^%   I had no idea that it was that high.  With that kind of power, you are always going to find the weak link.   
You need to put an ACR wing and splitter on the Beast to make sure you don't take off !!!

Fun day for sure. Pretty happy with my mild mannered vert @ 530hp/510tq.  Had a blast just keeping up with Dan and Mike on the drive to DC from Seal Beach  =15  "We were just cruisin"

As always thanks to Lance for all the great pics

[ViperX]

Hey OC Guys,

Sorry about that drive from Seal Beach to DC.  Try not to drive like that but I'd told Dan I'd be there at 9:00 AM with the screen and projector and there was much more slow traffic than I expected.

We made it by 9:00 - just barely.

Just need to leave earlier next time.

Hey Ben,

How much HP did the Camaro put down?
