MM Performance Dyno Day/Cruise

[blk04cobra1]

The SCMC will be having it's dyno day with us on 5/20/2006. Pro-Dyno will be providing the dyno and I think it will be $50/3 pulls with A/F. As time gets closer, we can set up a list for who wants to jump on and hopefully by then we'll have a car ready to peg Dan's dyno :thumbsup: .

We are also trying to coordinate the cruise to Red Brick Pizza on this day, but that will determined later.

[nckissfan]

I am definitely in for this. I have that day off, amazing:rotf: I know this, cause I am taking some vacation days

[Cobra4me]

[nckissfan]

if after I install this fence, I have money laying around from my profit share check, I might get another add on goodie for the car. If that happens, I may dyno, don't know yet.

[VenomSVT]

I might dyno if I get the AFM Powerpipe by then.:)

[cobrabitn]

Sorry y'all...you're considered "hanging out" till you say definitely you will get up on the "MACHINE". :D

[bones90gt]

Sounds like a fun day and a nice break from the daily routine. Hope to be able to make it since it falls the week after finals and the week before summer session starts.

[Pro-Dyno]

[cobrabitn]

Torrey,

Do you have a photo of your business with maybe a Cobra in front of it so we can put the advertisement on the front page of the website??

Thanks,

Tony

that is something for Edmond. I will shoot him a email to let him know.:thumbsup:

Any chance I can get a tune on the Dyno Day? I'll go last so I don't interfere with anyone just getting a dyno.

Come on up Danny, we'll be out there for a while, if the weather holds off...i'd say we'd pull it in the shop, but there's not enough room right now :thumbsup:

[blk04cobra1]

so, do we have any who would like to Dyno on this day?

[Big Daddy]

Well I was hoping to get new plugs, wires and a tune that day? SO I guess I'll be on the dyno! :thumbsup: :D

[RF Cobra]

so, do we have any who would like to Dyno on this day?

I would like to get a good baseline dyno so I know what I've got before I start making modifications.

[Cobra4me]

so, do we have any who would like to Dyno on this day?I would like to get a retune if time permits

[cobrabitn]

I wish I could make it but I'll be in Bama on the track! BTW, I like your new sig Cobra4me...I can see the SCMC decal in the windshield real good! :thumbsup:

[Cobra4me]

[blk04cobra1]

It looks right now like some tuning will be possible if dyno slots dont fill up...just let Dan know what you are expecting and we'll get things coordinate to suit everyone :D

[RF Cobra]

What's the schedule for the day?

Meet time?

Anything else planned? - metioned pizza cruise initially.

Might increase the response if people know what is planned for the day. :)

[blk04cobra1]

Based on the response, im not exactly sure yet...i'll call Red Brick Pizza tomorrow and see if we can square something away with them...

Tentative schedule--

Dyno Day--9am-4pm
Cruise to Red Brick Pizza--4pm-until?

It all depends on how many are going to need tunes or want to dyno :thumbsup: . If you are looking for a tune, please contact Dan@Pro-Dyno, from the looks of it, there should be enough time to accomodate a few tunes.

[NO 5 OH]

I would like to get a good baseline dyno so I know what I've got before I start making modifications.

You mean it's still stock :eek: :eek: :p :p

I'll possibly make it down that way... I might dyno to see what the ole' slug puts down :D

[nckissfan]

Shannon, you need me to come pick you up along the road??:rotf:

[NO 5 OH]

Shannon, you need me to come pick you up along the road??:rotf:

Ah... gotta kick a man when he's down huh Mikey ;) Just because my car has been sitting for almost a month now and is covered in pollen... that isn't any way to be treatin' somebody now :p

I hope to have it back together in the next few weeks :thumbsup:

[RF Cobra]

You mean it's still stock :eek: :eek: :p :p


Shannon

Yup, and the only time mine has been undriveable was due to a defective alternator. Other then that it has been ready for me to drive everytime I get in and turn the key. :D :spoke:


I want to get it paid off first and should have that done by the end of this year so there will probably be several Cobra goodies under the christmas tree in '07. :D

[nckissfan]

I, at least, dust mine off daily. I am just pulling your chain, but I would pick you up if you needed a ride. :thumbsup:

I know what you mean, we were hoping to have mine back up and running by this day, but it looks like we wont even be seeing the motor by then :rolleyes:

[NO 5 OH]

Damn... that was C-O-L-D B-L-O-O-D-E-D :p:p

At least my alternator hasn't gone bad yet :D We just won't mention the rear-end that's been apart three times now or the transmission that's out for the second time in six months :( I knew I should have replaced that damn TOB retainer sleeve when I had it apart the first time ;)

Mikey thanks for the offer... I believe *if* I need a ride the "old man with the all aluminum 427" can give me a lift :p



Shannon

[RF Cobra]

Me and Ford V-8 alternators don't seem to get along very well (went through 3 of them on my Tbird). I know once I start I'll get bit by the mod bug so who knows what will happen then.

I hope you get yours back up and running again soon. :thumbsup:
:flash:

[VenomSVT]

[blk04cobra1]

Torrey, I'll be there for a tune also since I will have that new rearend gear and possibly a new anderson powerpipe!:eek: Can't wait!:thumbsup:
nice, i heard the Anderson's give good gains...i'll chat with Dan, this may be a tuning day, instead of dyno day :D

[blk04cobra1]

Official change:



this is now a "tuning" day, please call Dan and set up a time to get on the dyno. Following the tunes, anyone who wishes to get on the dyno for some pulls will be able too, but tunes come first. this change is occuring b/c it seems there are more needing a tune, than just a dyno run :thumbsup:

[Cobra4me]

I talked to Dan but not get a specific time set

no worries, I think Big Daddy has the first spot, so if you're there around 9am, you can be second :thumbsup:

[Cobra4me]

[DTSVT03]

guess I will be there to hang out next weekend.


Thanks for the call back and info yesterday Torrey!:thumbsup:

[nckissfan]

it looks like we wont be making it there after all. We have some other stuff to do. Since I am not dynoing, and the Official SCMC photographer is going to be there, it wont matter that much. Have fun, and no breaking anything.:thumbsup:

I will see you guys sometime this year:)

[RF Cobra]

I hate to hear you're not going. I was hoping to have someone run interference for those cops with an attitude. ;)

Guess we'll have to make you watch the home movies and slides over and over again.

[InfamousSVT]

Hey Torrey, can you PM me directions on how to get there?? Thanks :thumbsup:

[blk04cobra1]

Hey Torrey, can you PM me directions on how to get there?? Thanks :thumbsup:
PM Sent....here are some general directions...

From Gastonia:

Take I-485 towards Concord...get off at the Independence/Hwy 74 exit (go towards Monroe). At the 5th stop light (approx. 4 miles), make a U-turn (there will be a BP on the right and shady used car lot of the left). Make your first right in to Sun Valley Industrial Complex. Once inside, make your first left and you'll see the cars parked out front :thumbsup: .

From Concord:

Take I-485 towards Rock Hill...get off at the Independence/Hwy 74 exit (go towards Monroe). At the 5th stop light (approx. 4 miles), make a U-turn (there will be a BP on the right and shady used car lot of the left). Make your first right in to Sun Valley Industrial Complex. Once inside, make your first left and you'll see the cars parked out front :thumbsup: .

From Charlotte:

Once you cross over I-485 on Independence towards Monroe, just follow the last few steps above ;)

[InfamousSVT]

that's awesome Mike, cant wait to see your results :thumbsup:

[DTSVT03]

I might be coming up in a yellow hard top instead of the vert. Going to go see about trading the vert in. So that means this would be 03 cobra # 3 hahahaha:thumbsup:

nice...i just dont like the '03 yellow...too pale...good luck...how much you want for the vert? :eek:

[DTSVT03]

nice...i just dont like the '03 yellow...too pale...good luck...how much you want for the vert? :eek:The way it is now I would ask $28k to sell it out right.

[blk04cobra1]

Well it looks like we'll have a good turnout...we'll be providing some drinks as well...unfortunately I could not square away the Red Brick Pizza, but there's a Hooter's a few miles up the road, so we could all cruise up there afterwards if people get hungry :thumbsup:

[InfamousSVT]

See you guys around 1pm :thumbsup:

[InfamousSVT]

Had a great time today guys :thumbsup:

[Big Daddy]

Had a great time today guys :thumbsup:

Ditto for me too! Thanks to Corey and the crew of MM Performance for putting in my plugs and fighting my serpentine belt on after I gave them the wrong one to start with! (SORRY GUYS!!!) Also MM Performance supplied Pizza, drinks and a the space for the dyno.

Thanks Dan from PRO DYNO. Great job of tuning my car!! My new numbers are in my signature!!! Dan got me 53 more RWHP and 16 rwtq SAE at peak from my old numbers. The air fuel is a modest 11.5 to 1 so the engine should be safe. We were having a little fuel issue so we set the rev limiter at 6500rpms until we get it worked out. All in all I'm very pleased with how the day went! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[RF Cobra]

A big thanks to both MM Performance and Pro-Dyno for hosting an excellent get together and great dyno & tune day. It was great to spend the day hanging out and having a good time while several cars got performance increases thanks to Dan. :thumbsup:

[RF Cobra]

A few pictures...

[Big Daddy]

Great pics...of course you had to get mine up on the jack stands! It only took four guys to put on the belt! It is a PITA! :thumbsup:

[Cobra4me]

great pics as always Alan:thumbsup: big daddy 4 hours in the shop, 3 hours on the dyno we should have called it the " MM performance big daddy dyno day":rolleyes:

Well the 4 hours in the shop was to give everyone else a shot at the dyno! ;) :D

HOWEVER, I was the FIRST one to ask if Dan could do the tuning instead of just a Dyno Day!

BTW how did your numbers turn out?

[RF Cobra]

great pics as always Alan:thumbsup: big daddy 4 hours in the shop, 3 hours on the dyno we should have called it the " MM performance big daddy dyno day":rolleyes::rotf: I was going to be nice and not say anything. ;)

However, I think after the 2-1/2 hour mark on the dyno, Dan was convinced Big Daddy's Cobra was posessed...

Dan got even with him though when he told him to go do the test drive and had it set in valet mode. :D

Well I DID WARN Y'ALL about the "Oswell Factor"!!! It bit poor Dan right in the buttocks! :rotf: :rotf:

The valet mode was pretty freaky! I thought oh SH!T what happened now??? Then I was like dooh, damn valet mode! :rotf:
