Any interest in you AMG folks meeting at the Lynnwood Taco Time 196th and 44th on Friday 21 Aug around 1700?

They have a mini car show in the parking lot, usually about 50-100 cars show up when it's sunny. The Mustang club and SVT owners need some competition with AMG's in force ;-)

BeltFedBob

I'll post them tomorrow, I have a meeting tonight and it will run late (don't have the camera at work today). I think you are safe on time for it runs till 1900 most days. Some pretty interesting local talent shows up for this.

See you there ;-)

I might stop in and check it out give my support. Gonna hold for a tune until I get a pulley. Really appreciate someone heading up here and supporting us with tunes.

Not a fan of that dyno.... not enough air in the shop.

My buddies modded z06 made 40hp less on it than a mustang dyno. His IS-F maded the same hp a year later after and upgrade with a K&N and new exhaust with no cats and high flow mufflers.

My car was also about 50hp low compared to other numbers I have seen.

It will be interesting to see how you guys do on it.

Cool. Feel free to swing on by.

I've had a lot of success with the folks at CarbConn, as have most of the BMW guys. Last dyno-day they had a couple large fans (one blower-style down low and one big metal stand-fan up high) in front of the rollers. The also have the option to open the garage door in front if necessary.

My bone stock E60 M5 put down 427RWHP and 320RWTQ (CF: SAE) during the last event. All numbers were very consistent and inline with expectations given the mods.
