Just wondering when on March 8 and how much and for how many pulls? I'm in! That place is 10 minutes from my house but I never heard of it. Are they a new shop?

they really aren't new......but they are more of a mustang specialty shop....but martin is a good guy and one of the only performance shops in edmonton that will allow the diesels too run on his dyno jet.

As for times....that has yet too be finalized...but right now it appears that the start time will be 8-9 am.....I still have a couple things too get finalized....

I'm hoping to come...with my new(er) truck. I definately want to find out some info and talk to the guys about what to do in terms of BOMBing it. The common rail world is sorta foggy to me, I can see it but its not totally clear haha.

K guys, looks like our house possesion and moving date will not jive very well for me making this meet. I won't say yet that I won't be there, but it'll be play it by ear I think.


.........finally got my truck repaired and I'll have the Adrenaline box on tommorrow So I'll be ready to drop the hammer either way.


If worst comes to worst I'll make a run at DPS in honor of the day......

What did you do? Was that the knocking sound you were talking about at the last dyno?

no, my new last sept PSC steering box barfed its guts out sector shaft seal even with the DSS.........So I've been on down time for a few weeks now waiting on that to go to Texas and back.


I've still got that noise. Still no effect on running ability. low blowby, don't use coolant or very much anyways. Had oil analysis done no water, no fuel in oil. Set valves all we actually within spec still. I may have to pull all the rockers and push tubes and visually inspect one by one, then failing that, compression test the engine. noise does not change with temperature.....only speed. has not gotten louder, or heavier..........

Anybody put any new speed junk parts on. I'm still crossing my fingers about getting my truck done. Not enough seat time to really troubleshoot, still putting in the new transmission. I have the twin turbo mocked up but its tight between work and family thing. Its sure bugged me when I put back on the old HX-40.

The only thing I'm testing are lukes laser cut DV.The weather is the problem thats holding me back.Got them in, the last nice day we had about 3 weeks ago and haven't even tried the truck on the highway to see what the EGT are at.What to try a fine tune on the LC to see if they will run ok on the dyno,otherwise Tate will borrow me his 181 DV to try.I hate winter....

Well guys I am sure hoping to be there, not sure yet, my dad has taken ill and it is taking alot of my time and resources. The good new is that PPE has sent back my programmer and should have that in my possesion this week. Still havent had a chance to fix the brake cable that I broke on the way home from the last dyno day. I was hoping to have a bottle heater on and some purge valves, but not sure if that will happen or not now.

So to sum it all up, I am going to do my darndest to be there, but I may not have too much done to my truck extra, so it may only be a slight increase in HP

Are we going to run everything in catergory or a #2 catergory for top HP? I like to see how well the drugged up trucks run just on #2? We should also have catergory for the truck with the most soot on the rear of the truck(stacks guys) or on the bumper at the show. Kinda Hickish, but fun. Mines still has a pretty heavy covering and it has not moved in two months
