Thanks, Craig, for setting this up, what a great time! Richard's company, Dyno Dynamics, is first class, and they know their stuff! Was pleased with my results, though didn't know what to expect. I was hoping for 140 hp at the wheels, equating to just under 170 at the crank. My results:

Got 10 more HP at the wheels than expected, which equates to 180 HP at the crank (per their calculations). Torque numbers were good, as well. Engine is rebuilt L28, stock configuration other than flat top pistons, and 2.5" exhaust with two 4" round Magnaflows in line.

Now, on to the triple Webers to see how those numbers look ... :D

Agree with Stephen. Interesting, educational and a lot of fun to see what our rides would do. Kudos to Craig for setting this up and getting us such a good deal. The owner spent almost 2 hours with us and we all learned a lot. Since I'd already taken the Z I ended up taking my 2005 MazdaSpeed Miata turbo. Nice surprise, pulled just under 202 HP to the wheels (equates to roughly 230 at the crank) and 175 FtLb of Torque. Not too bad for a little 4 banger. :D

Thanks everyone for coming. Im up for another dyno day in a while and will post a few weeks in advance. Mitubishi Evo made 260whp with about a 30% loss according to Richard for AWD. Puts it about 330 crank which makes sense with intake .
