Thread: 08/03/2013 - Dyno Day at Carlisle, PA @ JK-Tuning

It was a pleasure to meet all you guys and I had a blast. I enjoyed talking to everyone and even though this is my first meet I felt like I knew you guys all my life. It's hard to find people with SR's around Pittsburgh and no one appreciates them as much. Again thanks for the awesome time and hope we can do it again sometime. If not hopefully we can meet at the convention.

Wish I could have been there!

@JKTUNING Thanks for hosting us at your shop and showcasing Nismotronic.
@SE-RMonkey Always a pleasure. I always love seeing and I got to admire it with its classic plate all the way up to Carlisle.



@Kyle (and father) Thanks for the extra motivation to get me to come out. Great time and glad to see another local with a very pristine stock SER. I really enjoyed hearing your father's racing stories and the pictures. He needs to get a 510 up and running.

@Vadim Good to meet you. This guy was deep into the tuning and he can build a nice car. P11 is a nice sleeper. I never followed your build thread and was surprised you had a turbo set up in it, let alone a 6-speed swap. +1 your wife came along like a champ!

@blkse-r Great to meet you and check out your B14 build. I can see you know your way around the SR20, and can't wait to hear what this set up puts down for you. I really liked the IC piping you put together.

@fezman1337 and brother Also great to meet some newer guys just getting into the SR20 community.

@Storm88000 Nice to meet you and see that VE SE-R. Let me know about that header secondary. I kind of want to go for a ride-along in your car if possible. I'll return the favor.

Pretty cool mix of car owners ran through the place: guy with a GTR was cool, there was an EG with a T3 setup putting ~380, the orange S13 made 615 (thing was a beast, the exhaust was blowing the garage door ropes at a 45 degree angle out of the bay during WOT and sound was like being at top fuel races at Maple grove).

Pictures:


I know this guy was disappointed in his numbers as the intake manifold he had was leaking bad. Anyone know what he ended up putting down? Clean car and set up.





Final shout out to @MotherNature for sparing us the T-storms and showers that seemed to be raining down everywhere except Carlisle.

And yes we do need to do this more often. I know we all have other things going on but we need to block out a few hours every few months to get together and shoot the breeze.

Haha, I couldn't understand exactly what he said. Something like "can the dyno handle a Porsche?" or something.

I believe he said "a front wheel drive Porsche", taking a dig at our cars. Meh, some people. I'm just glad my car doesn't have to define who I am.

Or maybe it does? It's small, old and cheap just like... :numbness:

new clutch, I would have run him at 17psi, lol
see what happens.

Running 20* above 7k rpm, it wasn't making too much more power per degree thus we decided to keep it safe .



Thanks man! My wife has a good time too, I did take her to Old Navy at lunch and she actually found some stuff there. Then on the way home we happened to find a frozen custard shop, that just made the day even better!



I bet he would have ate his tongue if he tried to race any one of us.



Thanks man! Kind of have to build cars as sleepers where I live, if it's not a Domestic V8 you are guaranteed police attention. Plus it's more fun to see a family sedan beating up on "fancy" cars .
