I will be posting important information on this thread in the near future.

Any people who are signed up for the dyno should check back here soon.

We will need to organize the dyno availability by time slots.

The dyno will start as early as 9am and run until early evening.

We will need to schedule the cars in a fair and resonable way so that people don't sit around all day, especially if they get put on a waiting list.

I would say that those who are on the current dyno list from #s 7 and up should probably plan to be available in the afternoon, say between 1pm and 5pm. We 'might" be able to have a few slots avaliable before 1pm, but I can't guarantee it.

We will try to accomodate everyone, as best we can.

Any questions or concerns , just reply to this post.

Use the other meet thread for sign ups and other meet diiscussions.

Thanks

PLEASE RESPOND ON THIS THREAD FOR DYNO RELATED TOPICS ONLY.


Status 2/21
- At this moment we are trying to schedule a second dyno day on Friday, Feb 27. I will have confirmation on Monday if this is possible.

- There are ONLY 13 slots available for Saturdays Dyno Day. We have scheduled the time slot spacing conservatively, so it is possible that we will be able to run more cars, but at this moment we cannot guarantee more than 13 cars.

- The list below is how the schedule will appear if we get confirmation to run cars on Friday. If we CANNOT get cars scheduled for Friday then the Friday cars will be moved back to Saturday and the last 4 to 5 cars will be bumped on to the waiting list.

- If you would like to run your car on Friday instead of Saturday, please PM me and I will try to schedule you in, once we get approval.

- As a courtesy to those on the waiting list, please notify me if you need to cancel.

Well, it looks like the availability to dyno some cars on Friday is very limited. I originally attempted this so that EVERYONE who signed up would be able to dyno their cars. Unfortunately, I could only get an appointment to dyno two cars on Friday. So it looks like we will have to re-organize the Saturday Priority List.

I'm sorry that we will not be able to guarantee that everyone will be able to dyno their cars. We actually did not expect the tremendous response because we posted a Dyno interest thread two months ago and only got 12 cars signed up.

So in the interest of fairness, those in the shoot out get 1st priority, those that were invited (Jim Meader , ISV300) or responded to the original threads will get 2nd priority and everyone else will get priority in the order of sign up.

Some things to consider:
1. We have tried to be conservative with the dyno time per car so there is a possibility that we will be able to get in more cars than we have allocated.

2. We have allocated 13 spots (3 pulls per spot, some shoot out cars get two spots or 4 pulls), but it is estimated that we can get in as many as 18 cars in the allocated time.

3. If you are on the waiting list, we will have a good idea whether you will be able to dyno your car by seeing if we are ahead of schedule during the 1 to 2pm time frame. Also note that as with any activity, there will probably be "NO SHOWS"

4. If you are on the Waiting List, we still encourage you to attend and enjoy meeting with others.

5. Anyone on the waiting list who shows up to the meet will get a complimentary copy of the NorCal V.2 DVD valued at $15 and currently available for purchase on www.LexusGoneWild.com. You will receive the free DVD whether or not you are able to dyno your car. Just see me to pick up your DVD at the registration table. (FREE ONLY to those still on the waiting list as of Friday, Feb. 27)

6. Please respond to this thread, should you decide not to attend the meet / dyno so that I can update the list and get someone else into your spot.

YOU MUST be present NO LATER than the appointment times listed above, but it is strongly recommended that you register and pay for your dyno 30 minutes before the scheduled time.

If you are not present when your name is called, you will lose your place in line and will be bumped to the end of the Waiting List.

If we are ahead of schedule and you have not yet arrived, we will let the next available car go ahead of you BUT you will be inserted back in line at the next available time slot, so long as you have not missed your posted appointment time .

See you at DynoLabs

Stay Tuned. I will have more info by tomorrow.


It will be VERY IMPORTANT for Dyno people to check this thread out, so check back soon.

BoostedIS

Are we allowed to dyno tune our car as well ?

RMMGS4

iTrader: (5)

Saturday time is limited, so we cannot take up too much time for tuning between runs.

Check your PM ASAP.

soodxn

maybe we could fit in more dynos if we only do 2 runs instead of 3 and lower the costs from 50 to 35-40?
i know i wouldnt care if i had 1 less dyno. plus the shop would be making more money out of this

RMMGS4

Excellent suggestion.

We are trying to do 2 pairs of dyno runs on the cars that are being used for the shoot out. Instead of 6 pulls, they will get 4 pulls total. This was done to save time as well.

Everyone else is getting 3 pulls at this point, but I will check if this is a viable option.

Jim Meader

Recieved the new ECU for the Dyno run Looking forward to seeing what this thing will do

Please check the updates that I make to the first post of this thread on a daily basis.

I just bumped soodxn off the waiting list and on to the last available slot.

You never know.


Bruce Nomura will attend the meet at approximately 10am and stay till until around 1 to 2pm.

For all those running their cars on the dyno, you might wanna reset the ECU on Thursday or Friday. Some people have said this can improve your dyno performance. It doesn't hurt anything, so you might as well do it for the heck of it.

If you don't know how to reset the ECU, the GS and IS have a fuse box next to the battery in the engine compartment.

Remove the yellow fuse located on one end of the box that says ECU-BI . Leave it out for about half an hour and your done.

You could also just remove the battery connection; it's the same thing.

Please keep checking the status of the first post of this thread for updates highlighted in RED

The dyno schedule is NOT locked in at this point and is subject to change.

Your dyno appointment schedule may have been moved. If you are on the waiting list, your status may change as well.

It is YOUR responsibility to check the schedule and to make sure you arrive on time. I will lock the schedule in on Friday @ 9am. So you can check back then for the final appointment times.

In addition to re-setting your ECU you should also do the following BEFORE dyno day:

1. Inflate tires to a higher than average pressure. Mine are set at 40psi . Check your tire recommendations for maximum allowable pressure.

2. Check all lug nuts are tight and with proper torque if possible.

3. Check all fluids are filled to atleast minimum levels for Engine Oil, Transmission oil, coolant

4. Make sure fluids are in relatively new condition, otherwise change.

5. Change or clean / re-oil air filter, according to the type of filter you have.

Any other suggestions just post here.

I am trying to get another car dyno'd on Friday. (That would make a total of 3 cars).

Jim Shang will potentially be "Off" the waiting list and several others will be bumped to an earlier schedule.
