I got mpegs of most of the runs as well. They are pretty big in size, but if you want yours just PM me to let me know.

It was good meeting people and hanging out. Thanks to MOTOP for setting it up. Also, thanks to skeleton_cru for the sodas and stuff (I think I saw you on 101S yesterday afternoon...but anyways).

And we now have dyno specs for a pure stock 05 6MT with 1800 miles on it! As far as my numbers go on the spreadsheet that MOTOP put out, the torque numbers are off because there were spikes in the reading for some reason. The real torque average should be about 220.

Thanks to Andrew (the organizer), John, Casey and the Modacar crew and Barry for the laptop (even though we didn't use it). Modacar always takes care of us and they were very professional, as usual. Casey really knows his stuff and John came through with pizza.

Also, thanks go to the EVO guys for invading the Dyno Day events and eating all the food. I did not relinquish one ounce of Pepsi or Sprite to those bastards.

Thanks for comiing out and braving the crappy early morning weather! We look forward to the next event and we hope to get a few of you guys back down here and get a little APS boost going under the hood. Thanks again guys and please don't hesitate to call us for your G35 needs.

Brett.

You're welcome, and no that wasn't me on 101. Must have been Bizarro Eloy.

After looking at quick review of others results compared to mine from a week earlier, it looks like the new dyno software may be reducing the numbers to approximately 96% of what they should be (or roughly 10hp/tq lower). It's just odd that all the automatics that I compared to the previous dyno day came in below the previous numbers even with upgrades. (Yours doesn't count, Linda, because you've got an '05) At least that's the theory I'd like to go with so that I don't feel so bad about having dropped more money on mods and having lost power.

After seeing those APS TT numbers, now I'm thinking it's time to start saving up the $10k or so to get one. That Lotus turbo is cool. I go by every once in a while and always enjoy seeing what's new there. Too bad they reverted the Evo back to near stock. They said it was amazing to drive at speed, but was unbearable in stop and go traffic (stall, sputters, loping, etc.). Even though it's anything but a super cool car, I like their dark metallic civic hatchback track car. All go and no show. Gotta like that.

Looks like we may need to schedule a yearly dyno day with this much interest. Thanks John, Casey and company for making these days a success. Thank MOTOP for organizing this one.
