Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!

The plan we have been discussing is to use their facility and dyno, but somebody's car that they do not know, or have any association with. The manifolds would be tested back to back.

Also, we plan to tune the car with each manifold. Obviously, if one manifold allows the engine to breathe better, it will require more fuel. As a rough plan, tune each car to a set AFR, and set timing as high as possible without knock.

Pending the date of the testing, I'd be willing to tune each setup as I am no longer in a shop. I would imagine the best way to benefit from this testing would be to have a car with monitoring equipment, a competent tuner, and a standalone with someone that knows how to use it properly.

What dyno equipment does beyond redline have?

I would be willing to sit in each car and not even look at the engine bay so I have no clue which manifold is which (I'd rather not know honestly).
