Do you guys think that we can get 10 trucks out for both outtings? I run both times. I want to try different stuff out, so both dates are good
At $100 a outting this is cheaper than renting the unit. I'm a cheap guy.

Kevin, partially good news. I might be up your way for a 3 or 4 day shut down. If you have some parts there, I could stick around for a day or two and we can slap some parts on there. That will be in the next week or so, so get on the phone and have some parts in hand!

Didn't have to drop them when I ran the dually at AFI, rollers are higher than everything else.

I could probably be in for both dates as I wouldn't mind trying a few different things as well. Works pretty slow so that should not be a problem. Keeping my truck in one piece might be though.

Bigd450, what you thinking about trying out? I'm thinking on the first outting I'm gonna try my set-up as is with the methanol/water injection. I want to finish off my twins and get my mach 6'rs re-conditioned for the second outting. Might even hit it with a shot of NOS and methanol mix. Just to get ready for Hanna outting.

GCL in Edmonton has a dyno and has good reviews about the folks there, the facility & the dyno.

Does GCL in Calgary have a dyno? Anyone know about the Calgary shop?

I've been trying to convince the calgary shop to get a dyno but he just doesn't want to in this "recession"
I've been going into everywhere with diesel or performance or anything on their building asking if they had one with no luck yet, I think DPS is just about the only place in calgary that will still dyno us.

Can't beleive that Calgary doesn't have a good dyno around...DPS can't handle the torque of diesel trucks...

I'm good with AFI, on both dates, both times. For me it would be nice to compare this year to last year on the same dyno. I'm pretty easy, I just want to see some sooty black dyno smoke.

I really dont understand why DPS would buy a dyno not suitable for diesels.... Diesel Performance Specialists... You would assume they planned on using it for diesels???
