hey does anyone know why an Evo wouldnt run correct on a dyno? would it be the transfer case??
I was told by a shop that tried to dyno my car that they had to street tune it because it wouldnt run correctly on the dyno...soo im just wondering if its bad news for the future like getting a new TC or whatever....

Unfortunately it is not very local for me either. More like a treat when my car has been good to me for the week, i will fill her up on the weekend!
87 octane map would be kinda nice!

My DSM doesen't even see expensive racing fuels. I run the generic track fuel. Even if I did hurt a motor its a $200 repair so who gives a f3ck. E85 is neat stuff but I can't get it easilly.

well i wish i could be more specific but all that the guy from slowboy said was that it wouldnt pull on the dyno for whatever reason. I asked if it had something to do with the transfer case etc.. and they said some evos just dont run on the dyno. sooo i dont know, im just looking forward to get my car back tomorrow...maybe...who knows...hadnt had it since Feb 9th
but it would be nice to know why it doesnt pull on the dyno

Some 03 EVOs with old transfer cases don't like the dynapack. Your car specifically has a transfer case thats on the way out, you can hear it whining around tight turns. This causes a problem because the dynapack tries to load all 4 wheels evenly and the t case cannot distribute the torque correctly without getting pissed off. Other than that everything should be ready to go in a day or two. Give me a call tomorrow or call Slowboy and ask for me directly so I can go over everything with you!! :-)

Hey whats up man. thanks I appreciate the info ! thats what I thought what was goin on, which really sucks and is costly. Don't have that much money left from getting the short block and some other things done. But yea I'll give you a ring tomorrow, hopefully everything goes smooth so I'll actually be driving again tomorrow haha, I think I forgot how to...
