Oct 16 Armor Inc Dyno Day.
It was an outstanding day... Great seeing everyone & all the nice trucks.
As always Armor/Donavon put on a great event & the Lightspeed Mustang dyno was working very well.. It was really loading down the trucks IMO.
A huge congrats to Brad (Goatbrain) for his results. His truck is smooth & stout. Hey Brad, can you post or PM me your Smarty settings again please?
As for my day, there is conservative & then there is foolishly conservative & I was the latter!
I'm dissappointed by my 447 RWHP but I think I won the award for the lowest EGT's on a dyno run.
(My truck spiked a whopping 900 degrees/45PSI on my dyno runs.)
As someone said, a great towing tune. But yesterday was not about towing...
No matter, I have lots of time to turn up the Smarty, add a pressure box & dyno again.
I forgot my camera so I couldn't take a pic of the results board but there were many cameras & videos so hopefully someone can post it up.
Great day all around... Joe

Is the Rob with the 984hp ford the one with the reg cab/short box from Dirty Diesels? Looked like good torque numbers for the hp. Congrats to Brad on winning the bet. Those duallies are hard to beat!

Wow. Big numbers for the number of trucks running.. 400hp is the bottom of the list save for a couple stock trucks.
Just did an average and its 482hp.. Wow..

thanks everyone it was a great time i'm really happy with my numbers. I was hoping for 600 but i need to do some more tuning. Thinking i need a pressure box as i was only seeing 22,000 or so on the runs even with the arson III. It's got a very flat curve all the way till 3000 as well my smarty setting were
TNT-R
SW-7
RP 3
TQ 4

it was a good day indeed. i ran on the rollers agian and this dyno loaded the truck much better than the mobile dynojet last month. the only change i made was changing smarty from 4 to 8 - nothing else. i held a pretty steady 47psi during both runs. on the mobile i barely hit 40 (oh yeah, ran in OD instead of 3rd this time too). i did 465/1055 (did 436 on the mobile dynojet). although they seem a bit generous, i'm happy with the numbers

Being the geek that I am, I do have DTR member tags that I gave out last year. I need to make more of these events, but my boys had a mini hockey tournament this weekend.
