Thanks for the info. I have a unit in that same complex. I've seen that Ferrari there but I never knew there was a dyno as well. Next time I see their shop door open I'll have to have a word with them.

rx7kelvin,

What were your numbers for your 430? Do you have any mods on it?

Stopped in at this shop the other day. A buddy of mine dyno'd his Shelby turbo Dodge. The guys at Jet City were pretty friendly and seemed impressed with the #'s his car put down. We were a bit disappointed with the #'s. Some google research showed that dyno dynamics brand dynos have the nickname heartbreaker dyno because they routinely produce lower #s then Mustang or Dynojet. Now that my buddy has been a successful guinea pig I will probably throw my E430 on their dyno in a few weeks.

I don't think its possible to put your car into total dyno mode. The info I have read said to disconnect the ABS harness in the engine compartment but the car will still downshift if starting a pull below 3000RPM so you are only going to get real #s from 3000 and up.

This is for a W210 but the 208 is probably the same. Scroll down to post #27

I've never tried this so proceed at your own risk

bump, then I am starting a new thread.

Since I am going to be travelling for business in May, June and July we better find a date in April.

How does the 26th or the 27th sound to everyone? Now we just need to come up with a place to meet. Suggestions?

There is a meet already in the works, scheduled for April, take a look in the W124 section. The members have already posted the meet info on other MB forums, I think the target location is Blaine Washington.
