    Get it dyno'd with the standard exhaust on to see the difference?

    There's an idea! I'm in work for half 1 on the day so I'll only be around 'til about 10 to 1.

    I still have the after market one on, the original may be on by then but I don't think it'd be worth 50 quid to find out TBH

    No loss to me.


    Maybe because some of us use other very well respected tuners who have both fwd,rwd and 4wd dyno systems.

    Also the fact that the dyno being only able to do 2WD/FWD is also a bit off putting as alot of people here have RWD and 4WD cars.

    Think about it.

    Strange that there's no more interest from the main forum, surely there's a few out there who'd like to get an idea of how their car's running.

    Only 4 more people and it's costing €40 a pop, get the names down!

    Think about it.

    I think he meant the general public who would have never been to a dyno.

    And there's nothing stopping rear wheel drive cars coming and going on the dyno.

    Its only a day out for a bit of craic, personally I'll be going up to AI Autoports when/if I ever choose to properly tune my ST but this dyno day is just a day out for a bit of craic and to meet other boards members.

    Don't think I can make it that day, even if I could I wouldn't be putting it on the dyno. Had it on the dyno dynamics one there recently and had 204 stock, happy with that! Won't be going back on it until I've mapped it.

    Dynos stress your car and its parts to the limits so I think the less time you spend on them the better.

    A mapping session might be putting a bit of stress on your car but a sub 5 minute dyno run shouldn't be putting too much stress on a well looked after car :)

    Car parts are designed to be stressed to the limits that is what margins of error are for,i've probabyl had my car on the dyno 5 or 6 times no hassles,i know of one car that has had 67 dyno runs!!
