The Owwdee gets replacement parts, no go stuff unless a stock thing breaks. I figure it makes around 160-210awhp, pending the torque converter slip.
I plan on starting a new project this upcoming spring or fall hopefully and will be out in 2011 or 2012. With the new house and school and side jobs, to busy for one at the moment. If they werent on a Saturday I'd come out and check one out.

$65 day of or pre pay $55 seems pretty high for a dyno day.. when Im sure it would cost $65 any day of the week?? I thought Dyno days were a way to make $$ by price low to get alot of people in which would bring in more money in the end. Rather than not so many people paying full price. I remember when I had a mustang and TCS had dyno days you paid like $25-$30 for 2 or 3 pulls..
Ill be there shootin the shit tho!! :)
Most shops around charge $75 for 3 pulls for just any regular day, DB, MAP, HiTech, etc.
The TCStangs dyno day this spring was even $50 if they had more than 15 cars. $60 if they had less.
This event is not a bad price at all if you ask me, and better organized than most other events around.

Furthermore, comments like this honestly are hard for me to ignore; several people put a LOT of time, money and energy into these events and this site. If you can't afford the extra $20 over these mythical $30 dyno days, then please just come and hang out as you say, but leave any badmouthing at home. These events are meant to be fun, part of a hobby, weekend fun. A little negativity goes a long ways.
I guess I havent been to a dyno day in a while so yeah I can understand inflation ;) I think people are taking the comment wrong. Im not bad mouthing the event.. or the price. Just from what I have went to seemed high. But youre right that was along time ago and a 2wd DJ vs an AWD/FWD DJ.. The idea I gave was just an idea, When we did the TCS one the last one I was at was when John Hailey had his shop in SLP. They had the moderators or something strap the cars... It was like $30.. but that was 6yrs ago or so lol..
But Like I said, Ill be there to have a good time and see some cars hopefully not break!! ;)

Compared to some of the guys, your mod list sounds pretty reasonable/modest. Do you know what it put down totally stock or was that your first run with it?
My car originally put down 210 hp and 240 tq on DB's dyno. So with a little over a grand invested the car makes another 50 whp and another 40 wtq. Over all its a pretty modest build. I've spent the most money on my suspension so far, I like to think that this is the way the car should have originally came stock from the factory.
I'm in the process of putting miles on my clutch, and there is a good chance you guys will see me there.
