20mins into the spin and it fukn broke down!

2nd time seen her on the back of a flatbed... so thats the down side
the upside is its now at formula tech in bibra lake and i spy a dyno

hmmmmmmmmm

I've heard good things about Fomula tech, they build some tough cars.

azzahstylez · 30-07-2008, 07:46 PM

Well just got back from formula tech and they come HIGHLY RATED +++ fukn what a workshop ( dreams of his shed looking like that)

So anyway SS melted some wires near the extractors so thats why it went in to get that fixed.
Now it is comming out with-
OTR INTAKE (POLISHED)
MAFLESS TUNE
SPEEDO RECALIBRATED
SOME TAPPIN NOISE FIXED
oh and the reason it went in for

Brett the director of Formula tech ( walkinshaw performance) said if i dont do a 13 flat after his finished with it he would be pissed off and to bring it back. Im so looking forward to picking it up tomorrow ill get the dyno read out and post some numbers then ill have to look at going down the plex to give it a sqirt :P

HOTN355 · 30-07-2008, 08:09 PM

Don't believe formula tech readouts..

650rwhp from a harrop charged vx ss....auto...
hahaha....yeah

Imo i can't doubt any of the work done WA Performance in West Leederville.
Mitch there looks after his customers very well.

But on the other side,if you need to borrow some m/t streets for running a 12,let me know,just gimme 50 bucks anyway,you'll get the best traction out of them,****s are almost bald

azzahstylez · 30-07-2008, 08:12 PM

well im gona be there tomorrow to see it on the dyno so face value will be good

HOTN355 · 30-07-2008, 08:17 PM

They only have to plug in a few numbers wrong or do it in the wrong gear and you've got a nice readout to make you smile and dissapoint you later on.

Hate to be a prick,but everyone thats gone there has always got higher readouts.

5Litre · 30-07-2008, 08:33 PM

Even if he does get a higher read out, he'll still be testing it on the quarter mile. If you really wanted to you could take it to another place and see if there's a diffrence, but I don't know hoe much a dyno tune is worth. How much is all the gear costing ya azzah?

azzahstylez · 30-07-2008, 11:20 PM

$1250

As i said coz of my 3.9's and the way the trans is set up he said he will be pissed off with himself if it doesnt get run a 13.01 or a 13 he said bring it back.

I might take you up on the offer with the slix scott, be good to see what differance it will make from street 18's.

I tell you what that workshop looks shmick as, and the cars they had in there gave me a ragin hardon

mark · 31-07-2008, 09:14 AM

no two dynos will give the same readout though.. thats life..
you can't expect the dyno to be spot on.. the best thing is to use it as a rough guide anyway..

shit I had 60kw more on one dyno then another... people would pay lots of money for that type of increase.

Seat of the pants dyno is what you go by
