SCMC Dyno Day at Young Ford (was ATS)

[cobrabitn]

If you plan to come to the SCMC Dyno Day at Young Ford in Charlotte, NC on August 7, 2004 then please post here. Thanks...

Oh, I almost forgot, please post your number. :rotf:

[tcrews]

I plan on it....

[Red03]

I'll be there ......................

[flynfink]

I'll be stopping in and watching for a while. What are the times?

[cobrabitn]

9:00 am till finish Jeff.....

[Robbie '96]

Tony count me in I want to Dyno my F250

[tcrews]

Tony, add Rich Latham to the list (Lighnting truck) and possibly a new member...he's looking at getting a '95 Cobra this Saturday, (Andy Brown).

So from Columbia it looks like

Tom Crews
Rich Latham
Rob Maurer
Andy Brown

Maybe more....still waiting to hear.

[NO 5 OH]

I will be there most likely... I can't say 100% for sure I'll be there as we've been having to pull some Saturday Detention due to the amount of orders we have :o

If we would have had to work tomorrow (the 24th) I wouldn't be able to go with Crystal to see Dave Matthews in Charlotte. I asked/pleaded... you name it to be off IF we had to work and my supervisor polietely said "no." Since we didn't have to work I'll be getting to go after all :thumbsup:

I will of course be bringing the Cobra ;)

It's my race car that I normally bring to drag day. I would like to see how close I can come to the 1000 hp mark. :eek:

[cobrabitn]

Oooooohhhh, Bring it so we can do avideo clip of it. :thumbsup:

[NO 5 OH]

Do I not count in the list of attendees of GPB... or is it just because I'm a "maybe" for this event?

I'll see what happens in the next couple weeks.



Shannon

[tcrews]

Nope....maybe's aren't allowed :) LOL just kidding.

Tony....change Rob Maurer to a "maybe" as well.....right now it looks like he'll be in Washington/Seattle for work.

I'll definitely know for sure if we're working the Thursday before... maybe sooner if possible :)

[Black Snake]

If I'm not on the left coast I'll be there to dyno. Right now I don't know if the trip is a go or what my travel plans would be. :(

I'm getting tired of this *&#%@. I haven't been able to attend a single event this year or start fixing my car. :mad:

[scsvt]

Got room for another Cobra?Have to work till 7am that morning but might be able to make it in the afternoon.

[cobrabitn]

There's always room for one more at the Inn. :) We'll be there till late afternoon so come on out and bring some $$ for dinner too. :bounce:

I'll be there for a dyno but need to leave By 11:30 for work.

[venomnous99]

I have sent a reply by e-mail to t crews, yet I don't seem to be on the list. I will be there with my black '99. Hope to be added to the list. I thought I was, and I probably am as you guys always seem to be right on top of things. Yet, it doesn't hurt to make sure. ;)

[cobrabitn]

Ken,

I believe you are already on the list. Above John Anderson and below Jon Sanders. Tom added you yesterday! :thumbsup:

[SilverStrike]

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again, hopefully some decent numbers for the Lightning as well :)

Rich W.

[cobrabitn]

Hope to see you there Rich!

Okay, I need to know of the people that are attending if you want to go out to dinner afterwards? If so, where? You know I like Carlo's Italian restaurant but I am certainly flexible enough to go somewhere else like Hooters or whatever? Post here if you want to go to dinner afterwards or if you just want to split up and call it a day?

We can also call the Karting place if anyone wants to do that too?

This event was supposed to be a dyno day/dinner for the Columbia, SC members but due to ATS going out of business, we had to do it in Charlotte, sorry.

Later,

Tony

I have to leave around 11:30-12 to get back to Columbia for work. So I'll miss the dinner. John

[flynfink]

Cannot make dinner.
See ya.

[BOSSMAN]

This has probably already been addressed, but how much $ for how many pulls? Also what time does it start?

[venomous]

I will not be able to make it for the dinner also. :( Have to be in Asheville in the afternoon, so I will have to leave by 11:30-12.

[scsvt]

Is there another link somewhere with directions? It looks like I should be able to come up in the afternoon. It will be good to finally meet some more cobra owners, not a lot of them around here.

[cobrabitn]

As I said before, this is a SC Meet (even though it is in NC by default) so if you can't make it for a meal, I understand. I just want to know so I can make my plans to either stay and eat or go home and eat. :D

I won't be able to stay, I've got dinner plans back in Columbia..

[scsvt]

Thanks for the directions. It looks like I'll still be coming up there in the afternoon. I'll be staying about 45 minutes away so I could go for food if people are going or just take off afterwards if most people are going home. Will there be anybody representing the club that I could turn a club registration form into or should I just mail it in today? Thanks in advance.

[cobra9793]

:mad: We won't be able to make it tomorrow because of my work. I will see evryone next sunday at Lisa's though i'll make sure of that. :thumbsup: See everyone then take care.

[2KWhiteSnake]

Won't be able to make it :( Have to head to work again for the 2nd Saturday in a row. Have fun and don't blow anything up.

Craig

[SilverStrike]

I had a great time, it was good to see a few familiar faces again :thumbsup:

[Sonic03inSC]

I also had a great time, saw some nice Stangs.

[Red03]

Had a great time myself. Meet some new people and saw some "old" faces too..... :rotf: . Seriously had a great time, what a day for it.

First time and the dyno and pleasantly surprised.

1st run 435.44 hp 395.05 tq
2nd run 431.52hp 390.87tq
3rd run 426.62hp 389.70tq

Not to bad for a K&N cold air and full Bassani catted exhaust.

Guess pullies and a custom tune are next........or maybe a Kenne Bell.........

[cobrabitn]

Greg,

You're sick! :D

Looks like I'm going to have to do a few more mods to get to where you are at right now! ;)

Tony

[venomous]

I had a great time myself, but I was no where near anyone else's.
Mine was:

1st run 219.18 hp 271.39 tq 12.65 a/f
2nd run 219.01 hp 270.84 tq 13.09 a/f
3rd run 220.65 hp 269.90 tq 13.02 a/f

But that was with a stock 95 Cobra. Hoping for a nice gain when the exhaust is bolted up! :bounce:

[venomnous99]

I had a great time at the event, and got to meet a few of the members. Kinda got there late, so I missed most. I also didn't produce numbers anywhere close to most. Best run was 273.84 hp and 270.70 torque.I was wondering if these numbers sound about right. It is stock witht the exception of 2 1/2" X-pipe and K&N filter. Also the dyno run only went to 6200 rpm, which was where the hp peak was. Does anyone know if the '99 will produce power after this, I had heard that it should peak at around 6500 rpm. Once again, I had a great time. You have a great bunch of guys, and some truly nice and healthy snakes:D

Your numbers sound right for a stock '99 Cobra (with the fix), K&N isn't going to show any but the x-pipe should have given you some gains. What was your A/F ratio?

Power will peak right around 6,000 rpm (+/-) so yours is fine. The only reason you continue to pull the gear is that when you shift you want the rpms to drop back into the meat of your power, not below it. Plus since power is dropping you'll still be making more in the higher rpms than if you shifted at peak and dropped down into the low rpms.

Sounds like everyone had fun......I haven't seen Tony post his numbers yet.......or did I miss a thread somewhere.

[cobrabitn]

I'm not sure you want to hear my numbers and I am afraid JLT isn't going to be too happy. I'm waiting on Dan to send me the data and when I can analyze each 1000 rpm increment I will give you all the full scoop.

BTW, Silver Strike made 398 rwhp and 475 ft lbs of torque in his Lightning. :thumbsup:

The funniest part about the whole event was when there was about 10 people under my car helping to put the catback on. That had to be a funny sight and Snapps got the pictures so I'll try to get him to post them.

All in all, it was a great day to dyno.

I want to give a BIG special thanks to Robbie Helton. he helped me all day to put on the mods and to John Pearson for taking me to get a new clamp for the exhaust. (I broke the bolts off of one of the pipes). Thanks Y'all!

:)

Andrew,

Tony

[venomnous99]

Thanks TCrews for the info. My A/F was right around 13 for the full pull. It fluctuated above and below, but only very slightly. The X-pipe is OR with mil eliminators. Guess I just expected it might get some more. Oh well, back to the mods right! Have to put on the springs(STEEDA), then time to spend some money! Once again thanks for the info.

Does the O/R h-pipe not give any more torque and hp than that? My car had 220 hp and 271 tq stock. yours made 270 tq w the O/R hipe? Whats the heck?

[cobrabitn]

I don't know why the numbers are so low. I thought for sure I'd be in the mid 230's. Maybe the mufflers need to be replaced too?? Seems like the snake is still bottled up. If I knew the muffler change would give me some extra hp then I would change them out too. :doubt:
