my dyno video @ Wolfpack

Looks and sounds great.

I really need to get back in the game and buy something fast.

Too bad my TBSS won't work with that dyno when I get it.

Yea, I'm pretty sure I could. I've seen many TBSS's running RWD.

Although, on a side note, I've heard that GM actually made two options of them: AWD and RWD. Not sure how much truth is behind it though.

Also, love the picture. I also made it my back ground. Looks good on my new MacBook Pro!

It is true but the drive lines are way different. AWD systems in the newer vehicals are computer controlled so disconnecting the drive line will tick it off and could burn up the computer controlled center diff. I would look into this and talk to people before just trying it.

if I knew you better I'd probably figure out that you're joking

I about fell out of my chair laughing.

I have no clue what he was trying to say...

I got it. I thought it was a straight forward comment. LOL

Launch: verb: to send forth, catapult, or release as a self-propelled vehicle or weapon.

**blizzard** · 01-07-2009, 03:22 PM

i think what he's gettin' at is your nice white wall won't be very long unless you install an exhaust evac with some type of catch can... or am i missing something?

Haha....yes, that's what he was getting at....for the most part: *reference verb above*

**o4c0b|2a** · 01-07-2009, 04:17 PM

nice pulls. Car sounds good. I was trying to arrange to go dyno mine, but couldn't make it work I guess. I have originally dyno and a/f sheets from when Lund tuned it. Was gonna take it down to compare a/f etc. It sounds like Mike already has it ready to go now tho.

**Martin0660** · 01-07-2009, 05:57 PM

From the English dictionary:

Launch - to throw forward : hurl: to release, catapult, or send off (a self-propelled object) <launch a rocket>

I thought it was a simple comment too. I watched Bo's video with no tail pipe / fume collection system and thought that was odd. What called my attention to it was the hunk of trash that went flying by in the video at about :42 seconds. Made me wonder what would happen if someone lost a turbine seal (IE:Launched) or pushed a head gasket with open pipes. To clarify, a launched turbine seal would be the "to release" part of the verb description.

I like how we now have the short and long version of that comment!

It looks to me that it was a license plate.

**Wolfpack Speed** · 01-07-2009, 06:53 PM

The "hunk of trash" was my license plate, I left it on the shelf just out of the picture. I plan on installing an exhaust system but I just haven't had the extra time to dedicate to the dyno right now. The shop is full, more cars are coming in and I was more less concerned with getting it up and running while dyno time would be slow over the holidays, so I could at least verify the equipment is working properly. I have some high temp exhaust duct for the tailpipes that will run to some hard duct that will be routed out the side of the block wall. While fumes aren't really an issue with the current ventilation system it will in fact help keep the exhaust from bouncing off the back wall as well as anything else that may be ejected from the exhaust...
