Dyno Day??
Just got the latest VW Trends which I don't normally buy but there was nothing else at the Newsagent, & on the back cover they had what was
going to be in the next VW Trends. It is a dyno day with one of the high profile Cal-Look clubs in California & they are going to print all the
results & specs of the motors.
I was going to put my car back on the dyno next week before I pull the motor down to make some changes over Xmas but I thought it would be way cool if
we do our own thing in Sydney. I don't know of any dyno's in Sydney so some suggestions or help would be most appreciatted, I'm sure
that if it cost about $30 or so to get your car on the rollers & we had about 20 vw's , a dyno operator would be more than happy to have us
there on a Saturday Morning.
What do u guys think? good idea , bad idea. I'd actually prefer a dyno day to a car show any day, I just love high performance VW's!
regards
Jak

dyno
Yeh Pete I thought it would be pretty cool, we won't be competing for sheep stations, it would be just interesting to see what different combos
put out as none have the same engine.

I would be in now that Blue is better.
There is one at Silverwater (SAS) on Silverwater Road and another one in Parramatta somewhere......
BUT
Last time my mate got his 3.0 CS BMW done a few years ago it was about $110.....but he got about 90 mins for that.
I guess some one might be interested in a pure measure run...no adjustments.

dyno
Yeh just purely a measure run Barry. The last time that I used a dyno which was about 120 months ago it cost me $30. I put it on the dyno, took a few
readings at different rpms & I was out of there 15 minutes later. I don't let anyone touch my car anyway!
I think that it would be a good thing

OK
Just spoke to a bloke called Ben at Port Hacking Automotive and he said yeah - around $40 per head. He is busy up to Xmas but in the new year during
the week or on the weekend.
I said approx 12 people and as you say Jak - just for a couple of blats. Ben said it excludes air fuel ratio readings but that could be done just a
few extra $$$$$$$$ as it is a limited life meter
I got his name from CSC @ Burwood and they say he has a good set up.
OK - who else is interested :bounce:bounce:bounce

I put the mustard menace on the rollers with a performanceforums.com dyno day, it was around $50 a run at Croydon Autosports.
the stock 1600TP with bugger all compression at the time put out a STONKING 25.4 RWkW
Happy to attend another one!
If it aint broke,
Make it go faster!!  |

dyno
sounds excellent Barry, thanks for getting that info. $40 sounds fine, we should maybe do it around Febuary , just before the Nationals drags??
We could even make it a yearly thing, that way we could keep tabs on whats happening every 12 months with improvements??
I'm open to all suggestions. oh & it would be a good chance to meet some of u guys as I'm a little isolated up here on the Central
Coast!

Unfortunately this is down at Tarren Point/Carringbah way. I have attatched a link at the bottom
I talked to Richard last night and he said he wants to take the turbo. I will give SAS a call today - they are closer to him

OK
SAS said Ok too but he wants $50 per car, based on a dozen cars.
These are all "just asking" prices so.....
He prefered a Saturday and said a maximum of 30 cars. I would come down to $45 if there were $30
Here is the link to that place.
Hmmm.....bloody long address. I will post then might have to edit

Port Hacking Automotive
U 2/ 191 -193 Taren Point Rd Taren Point 2229 (02) 9531 4561
and
SILVERWATER AUTOMOTIVE SERVICES
1/ 141 Silverwater Rd Silverwater 2128 (02) 9748 1300

Yeh I just spoke to Rich Barry. He's keen to get my car on the dyno with the improvements I'll be doing over Xmas & also Joe's
2.8Litre type 4 monster as well!! It may give the Turbo guys a run for their money!
Can't wait!

Hutcho, it wasnt as funny as the fact that it was running quite poorly (3 and 1/2 cyls) and had a leaky kadron pipe, so some mates spread the rumour
amongst the more impressionable that there was a WRX motor in it, and as a stir they dyno operator set the scale so it displayed 194rwkW I only took it for the comedy factor :P
If it aint broke,
Make it go faster!! |

Categories for most power, least power and closest to factory output for stockers.

I say either a trophy for the lowest or no trophy at all, just to keep the competition aspect low & the fun factor high!
