Is it possible to do a couple of dyno runs on Saturday (Jan 19)?
My friend would want to dyno his M3. I'd throw the Elise up there for fun. Where were you looking at?

Gearheads in Arlington does dyno's, i had my Mustang done there. It was 35 for two runs with air to fuel ratio but you have to call and set an appointment up as they are quite busy.

Heh... I was wondering... I decided to go by what you asked instead of interpreting it.
Hmmm... What about the guys in Denton?

They were Miata friendly.

Lightness? What's that? I drive a PRHT!
I give ATS a big thumbs up, Aaron is a cool guy. Someone call him in the morning and see if he could do a small dyno day.
Looks like we could 3-4 people interested as of now. I only need 1-2 runs.

I'm gonna keep an eye on this thread... if I can break away and get to Denton, I'd love to have a baseline dyno run before I start boosting things.

So what happened?
My 1.6 miata put down 136 rwhp and 119 wtq SAE corrected

Isn't that more power at the rear wheels than the factory says comes from the crank? I think they dyno was a little off. It should be closer to 90 rwhp.
LOL I'm just screwing around, no one set anything up so we didn't go. I just wanted to see how many responses I could get to my bogus numbers. :) If you guys want to go this weekend someone should call ATS and see if they have availability to setup a dyno day.
My tired 170K mile stock 1.6 probably wouldn't even break into the 90's. I did have a 1.6L SOHC civic with a small ball bearing turbo that put down 176/173 corrected though. I always wondered why the same size Miata engine only puts down 140 s/c, must be the head design.

Better 95 whp than 88.

I am going to try and contact ATS today. Reply with your status, Will make it, would like to make it, you got to be f-ing kidding me. I will see what they will do for us.
I'm interested in seeing how over rated the factory HP numbers are on the RX-8!!!
Denton is a long way, but I'm a definite maybe.

Put me down as a definite maybe, too. I am curious to see how much extra horsepower I have with the new radiator hoses.
