Re: How do you handle a car on a dyno?
 
I've never seen the use for a digital timing light or a timing advance light, there is no point in them. Timing advance functions are useless, the only thing I can figure they are for is so that stupid kids who don't know how a timing light works can totally mis-set their timing and blame me for their mistakes.

Either your timing marks line right up on a $10 fleamarket no-frills Actron or something somewhere is ------- wrong with your car. Just because you can get some marks to line up at some arbitrary advance that has nothing to do with anything on your decked/milled D16 with D15 crank pulley and Y8 head means absolutely nothing.

Good idea. I bought a digital one mainly for the slim body, but advance functions are not needed.

Take your car to the dyno once first...ask the owner if he will let you use the dyno on your own car, to figure out the functions and the best ways to use it to your advantage.

Then bring a customer there with you or you might look like a dildo O0

Dont bring a customer with you as your first trip to the dyno...

LMAO Yeah man that would be a bad Idea. I know it took me about a week to get comfortable with crome and my burn1 and getting freelog to work right. It took me an hour of fiddling last week to get the Otsrich you sent me setup and going. I definatly don't want to get used to a dyno with someone with 150 bucks to their name tapping their toes and looking at the clock while I figure out simple ---- for the first time.

I'll call around and see if anyone would be cool with me doing just that and not rape me at the same time.

Blowing up Hondas is common knowledge. I watched has a young kid people ---- up basic turbo/nitrous set ups. Things dont change people are still retarded. The best yet is still the wet nitrous kits without the wet :)

Re: How do you handle a car on a dyno?
 
this is some interesting stuff. i have always wondered how dyno sessions went. i have never been myself, but hopefully my car will be ready soon. i always wondered how much they let you do. i dont mind them running the machine, but i dont want them tuning my car. "I" know what "I" want.
