Thumbs up First time on the dyno was good!

Went to D&D Dyno Days today in Abbotsford BC with a goal of 400 HP in mind. Showed up at 7.30 and ended up being 10th on the rollers. thanks to B&D for putting on these things...

My truck doesn't look like anything special and I'm sure people were thinking it was a stocker. There was a few people tapping their buds on the shoulder and pointing at the screen when my 443 HP came up and a couple people asked what I had when I was backing out..

Thanks to Rpainter who helped me out with loading Crazy Larry 2.4D.
If a stock 06 puts out 270 (that's what I've heard) or so, that's an extra 173HP with a muffler change, air intake, boost fooler and CL, a good day!
Stayed till lunch, came home and put on my Pac Brake airbags, next mod will be an AD150 (hopefully my clutch lasts...)

Nice! These 3rd gens love some programming. My stock #'s were 300/492. John_P loaded his Beta Smartyware on just SW#4 got 431/762. No other fuel mods, just the muffler w/cat still, and a K&N in the stock box. I currently run Smarty on SW#9 (170 horse) but haven't spun rollers with it yet. Just all four rears.....

They told me in order to get an accurate torque reading they need to set up the dyno for each truck individually and given they do 60 trucks in 1 day they didn't have time to do that. As it was it took almost 4 hours to do the 30 trucks before I left at the lunch break.
They posted it as 1036 "estimated" though..?
