Well Jedi looks like quite the response to this Dyno Day of yours. I'll be discussing this further with the BHR crew and see if we can't make it out.
Need to see what my little 4 port is putting down now. Last Dyno on a Dynapak was 172 WHP. I should be a bit above that now.

G -
If you want to fill it with some 104, we can push the ignition timing and really lean it out and see what we get.

mm if i were to have a turbo on by then, would you send me the base calibrations in advance so i would be able to at least drive to this meet to get it tuned by you? or what do you think would be the best route.

shadycrew added to dyno run and possible E-manage tuning. Get that thing installed and talk to MM so we know what the day will look like.

We're up to 10 cars already, only room for another 5 - 10 cars. (max)

You can download the appropriate base calibration.

Well, you are going to be limited by what the turbo can actually produce, but I wouldn't mind trying that out.
