yeah i go every year. I had them do the baseline pull on my 135 before I started modding and now I got all my toys installed on there so I'm definitely going to be on the dyno this Sunday. 

I will be there bright and early, rain or shine.

Get it on video!  I wont be available until after 2p in case you wanted to meet up.

[i_love_cars]

I will definitely take video. If it's dry pavement, we will meet up otherwise next week I think the rain is gonna let up and we can reschedule!

[dastuz]

I'm in for meeting if it's dry as well.

King Dyno Day was a success. Everybody was having a good time, I put down good numbers, and WISCOe90 was there so I got to chat with him, among some other cool people I haven't seen since Dyno Days last year    Only one huge douche (ironically in an e36 BMW) doing burnouts when he showed up which caused a bunch of staff from King to run out yelling because, ya know, there's tons of people standing around and you're not cool sitting there doing burnouts. I hope it was nobody on this forum because I would be severely disappointed to know I indirectly associate with such a huge doucher. 

anyways, here's my chart! best pull was in 5th gear (1;1 ratio anyways) because 4th gear was spinning the tires.  379 whp / 434 wtq. I did a baseline run on this dyno last year before modding that made 275/295, so basically FBO mods got me +100 whp and +140 wtq. Not bad for $3k of modding. Now I just need a limited slip to help put it to the ground

Sounds amazing!  

Any idea what the daily hight/low was?

[i_love_cars]

I stopped watching dynos when they went on lunch break - at that point the only thing higher than my car was a 7th gen Civic  putting down 404 whp / 305 wtq - pretty impressive build actually. It made max torque by 4500 rpm and revved to 8400. 

The lowest I saw was another Civic at like 130 whp / 126 wtq but most years there is at least one FWD car by the end of the day that is sub-100 whp, lol. 

Last year the highest was some Supra pushing like 560 whp or something - I didn't see anything at the show today that looked as competitive as that.

hey bud fun talking to/meeting you! Congrats on your numbers, pretty impressive!

[WiscoE90]

we represented wibimmers nicely i think?   besides that red e36m with the blue wheels

[patsbimmer1]

I was there from 12:45-2 with my wife just walking around. I saw wiscoe90's car and i_love_cars but I couldn't find you guys! I had my wifes altima.

Perhaps they were in the E36 that was doing burnouts?

[patsbimmer1]

Perhaps... Damn e36 owners! Hooligans! All of them!

[i_love_cars]

hooligans indeed! damn sorry I missed you. Me and Wisco chatted it up for a while. If you combined our 2 vehicles you'd have something cool - a show car, a go car, and a winter car all wrapped into one hahah

god i didn't realize that e36 doing burnouts had blue wheels. Go figure. Kid takes a perfectly good bimmer and ruins it.

[andyhundley]

That civic is my friend rays. I haven't seen it yet but I've heard its pretty quick.

[suspenceful]

I wish I woulda went! Pretty nice numbers, man.

What exactly are your mods?

I'm going to get back on the dyno soon. Hoping for low 400+ whp.

[i_love_cars]

aprokavic downpipes

cobb intercooler

cobb drop-in filter

maddad catback

cobb stage 2+FMIC aggressive

Those are my mods.

The dyno number isn't as important as the difference to stock - remember my baseline was 275/295 with maddad catback. So adding these mods gave an overall gain of 105 whp / 139 wtq, and that's on 93 octane.

Honestly unless you're looking at an inflated dyno, you would need higher octane or run E85 in order to see 400+ whp. Most FBO cars you see running a similar tune will put down similar numbers to what I have - typically between 360-385 whp and 400-440 wtq. 

One thing I will reiterate is they had to put my car in 5th gear because even 4th was spinning the tires on the dyno, so if you're getting back on the dyno with FBO, keep it in mind. Throw some E85 in there and you'll be well within reach of your power goals, though
