BC'ers-Possible TU dyno day if we get enough people-CANCELLED!

[turbovanman²]

I need six confirmed people to get the ball rolling. I need solid numbers and we can get Paul and Chris? down or close to our neck of the woods. Please reply in this thread. This is a no brainer guys. :amen:

Simon Field
Will Martin-both confirmed.

[Whorse]

Fine I'll go but I need to know a bit in advance, and it pretty much has to be on a weekend. 100 bucks max is my budget.

[turbovanman²]

It'll probably be more than a $100, and yes, it will be a weekend.

[Will Martin]

I'm definitely confirmed! :thumb:

And for all the people that can't afford it, just remember; unless you got the time and money to fly to the states, this maybe a once in a lifetime deal! :amen: Sell parts, donate organs, 3-4 jobs a week-whatever it takes!
:lol:

[Mike_Shepard]

Yea I went to the Ohio dyno day and it is well worth it, Plan far ahead and get things organized.

I had a blast and didnt get tunned

Thats what I am doing, selling my organs, lol! :amen:

Anyone need a kidney, liver? hehehehe!

How much over 100 bucks. Again, I don't have much horsepower to test, so all I'm really able to do is benchmark a VNT with a porsche IC and cold air, and nothing else really.

Not sure, waiting for Chris to get back to me.

[Whorse]

well if it's like 150 bucks, I'd rather spend it on something like say, an S1 cam...

[4cefedomni]

i was there a few weeks ago and got three pulls in for $80 the numbers were horrible due to a boost leak i had, DAMN BLOW OFF VALVE

[shelbyplaya]

i'm in 100%!

just more motavation to get my g-head, TBI headder and some other parts on the car.... now if only i could find a decent 2.5L T1 bottum end!

the funny thing about all this is that i've got 3 dynos on the island that i could use....

[ssheen]

Perhaps post on www.turbo-2.com Western Canadian TDers site. I am sure some Alberta guys would be into making the drive.

What do you need?

Good idea, thanks. Well we have 3 confirmed so we will see. Will and I will glady pay more so we'll see what Chris says when he gets back to me.

Save your money and get the cam, I am sure it will be around $2-300 dollars as were paying for Pauls time and the dyno.

But the biggest difference is Paul isn't there to tune your cal. I was there a few months ago and got like 15 runs in for $80, :nod:

[4cefedomni]

sweet hookup! who is this paul you speak of? and how can he tune a stock cal?

[4cefedomni]

if i can get a specific date i will try to get it off as my leak is fixed and it now holds 25psi with no problems i would like to see what this 15 extra psi has done for me since my last run.

[turbovanman²]

sweet hookup! who is this paul you speak of? and how can he tune a stock cal?


Dude, where have you been :p . Paul Velicky of Turbo's Unleashed. He does custom cals and sometimes goes around and will make them 100% on a dyno.

[dwh4784]

How far out in are we talking? It might be worth it to me but which car would depend on the timeframe.

I am hoping Langley, which is a 5-6 hour drive for you.

[WOP'R]

is this only going to be for ppl with a TU cal?

[turbovanman²]

I would assume so, it would be a TU dyno day. Perfect time to step up to one Rob, :thumb:

BTW, you have a bad injector or harness, getting code 26, grrrr, :blah:

[4cefedomni]

i wasn't aware that paul from turbos unleashed lived in our area. thats sweet i was going to go with a megasquirt II setup but if he's local a custom cal now sounds pretty good. i was at thier website and it says they are based in the southwestern states. so does paul do the calibrations in vancouver and send them to TU?

[WOP'R]

4cefedomni, he doesnt. That why its gonna cost extra to get him out here.


.................:faint: your just full of good news arent you Simon! i had those injectores cleaned and flow tested before i sent them to you, there flowing at 95% rate. so im hoping thier not the problem, but at this point anything could happen with this car!....now weres a vomit emiticon when you need one

[4cefedomni]

i see well thats not good. how have your experiences been with the custom cals i don't want to have to keep sending back my computer to get it right.

[turbovanman²]

Paul lives in Detroit but we can fly him out here and he can do our cals one on one, so we get the most out of our cars. Buying a cal gets you a pretty good deal but he can fine tune it and thats the difference.

[WOP'R]

his able to make a cal, while he's here??....hmmmmm

[4cefedomni]

so far my car just has a temporary engine in it as i'm still building my new motor and it wont be ready for a while yet so i guess i'm sol on this deal.

[turbovanman²]

his able to make a cal, while he's here??....hmmmmm

Drrrrrrrrrrr, lol! I am sure he could whip one up, of course you would have to buy one of his cals first.

[dwh4784]

I was asking when you are looking to have it, even a general timeframe would be helpfull. Although it is nice to know it's only a 5-6 hour drive.

I have no idea, still waiting for Chris to get back to me. :( :mad:

[turbovanman²]

Its cancelled. Chris informed me they don't come to Canada, so he suggested I set something up in Seattle. So sorry guys, aint gonna happend, I barely have enough time to set something up around here, let alone Seattle.

[Will Martin]

Well that @#$king blows! So much for customer support.....:rolleyes:

The way I am treated when I cross the boarder has prevented me from going for over a year. I can't immgaine trying to cross while explaining the "dyno day".

You don't need to mention dyno day, you just say your coming over to visit friends, :thumb:

[shelbyplaya]

What do you need?







a good solid low milage 2.5T1 bottum end or a T2 bottum end. but heres the kicker... i need it to be CHEAP!

[Whorse]

That's not a kicker, that's pretty much expected in this community.
