Is there a place close to NH that I can dyno my car to optimize my diablo chip program. I recently put the chip in and have the mods listed in my signature, but there was little improvement with the chip in. I was going to get a y-pipe/high flow cat this week and then work at getting the car dynoed and get a custom program in there.

I find that the diablo chip gives you a hell of a lot more between shifts. Just slam your foot on the gas and let her rip through the gears. There is a degree though where your car will learn your driving style. Maybe i feel my chip a little more cause of the way i normally drive. But i do notice alot out of mine... Higher rpm shifts, firmer shifts, quicker also.

I know a guy who owns a 2000hp chassis dyno, but he's in Chicopee, MA. I used to work for his garage and race team when I was in college. Hmmm, maybe he'd be interested in sponsoring a dyno-day meet at his shop...

Now your talking! See if you can set up a dyno meet. Would the people from diablo be able to create a custom program from this dyno information?

Just you all hold your horses. Just kidding. Actually I was going to be calling Dean up with in the next couple of weeks. I was just waiting for the weather to break a little more. At this rate it might be June by the time we hit a consistent 60 degrees outside.
Anyway, I have talkted to Ivo about this already. I guess that this threat or maybe I shall start another thread as to how many people would be interested in it. Please at this moment and time do not ask how much it is going to be beacuse I can only give you a ball park figure of $1,000,000.00
Just kidding. But I am not kidding as to how asking me how much it is going to be. I already know that Dean is going to be giving me a price dependant on how many people come to this little shindig. I know last year for a couple of extra bucks he even threw in a BBQ.
So basically what I am trying to say is that people are seriously interested in it PM me and I shall give this post a week and see what kind of replies I get and then I shall call him and set a date. I am thinking some time in May to June (figured by then people shall have most of there winter/christmas/birthday/sponsers through discover card, and citibank/beer can deposits/ (o.k. I shall stop now)/whatever else, mods on the car.
Sassy/Ivo If you feel like this deserves it's own thread, feel free to move it. I wont be upset. Just feed me a beer and a craftman wrench and I shall be happy again :-)
Seriously, I would like to get this going.

I want my car running smooth before cougarfest. I'm unhappy with the performance I got from my diablo chip install that I want to see how my engine is running to make it work to it's potential. For me, June would be a perfect month. I would just have to know a date about 3 weeks in advance to get the time off from work. Lemme know if you can work something out. Thanks!
