Hey Everyone,

1 – BMW Z4
6 – Honda S2000
1 – Mercedes SLK
3 – Nissan 300ZX

Here are the current standings:
19 Members Will Attend
10 Members Can Not Attend

Here are the forums included:

Are there other platforms (or forums) that people believe we should add to the group?

To help increase the numbers can you let me know what we can offer to help entice you to come? There will be a sign in sheet and we will be keeping track of HP & TQ and we will compare it to stock output and post a top 10 results of who had the highest percentage increase. We’re also planning a next event that will be announced during this event. And like we said this is a great way to meet people, have fun, and hang out. So if there is something you would like to be there: food, music, photos, video, etc. let us know and we can try to set it up with in the next three weeks.

Keep the pre-registration coming! As an update this dyno day is available to all cars on these forums. The ones listed above are the priority, however any coupes, sedans, etc. are more than welcome to come and test out their performance as well.

You will hear from us again soon (3 weeks to go!),

Hey Everyone,

Nobody new has joined the pre-registration. We have 16 cars registered to participate. Everyone is more than welcome to come and hang out. We were hoping for a stronger response but that’s ok we will still make the best of it. By next Friday we will post a cell phone number that you will be able to contact us at.

We are sending a private message to all pre-registered users just to make sure you are still interested and did not forget about the event. Please respond to us so we can make sure to mark you on the list when we talk to the owner of the shop we can tell him an accurate number.

The event will have a registration form that those who pre-registered can mark themselves down on, and the rest can just add themselves to.
Please come back to us with your highest HP/TQ numbers after your runs so we can create a log and post a Top 10 Jersey Roadster’s dyno results.
There will be video of the event and we will post a link to youtube when it is completed.
We will also be taking photos and will post up links for these as well.

Thanks to all those who have registered already and we have one week to go so please if you would like to come let us know now.

Hey Everyone,

Ok the numbers are dropping fast and this is not the original anticipation. Because of this going forward we will have to collect cash ahead of time as we will be out for the difference.

We have 7 confirmed and we NEED 8 more to keep the price! Please find anyone you can to come out. Also if you have not clicked above to join remember to do that now.

Here is our cell phone number to contact us during the event: 908-902-7528. The number will only be active during Saturday, May 2, 2009 between the hours of 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM. If you need to speak with us before that send a private message through the forum.

The event begins at 9:00 AM and ends at 5:00 PM. You can call our phone if you are on your way and want to make sure it is still going on (for late comers), or if you get lost for directions.

Disclaimer: $50 dyno rate was for 20 cars and will be held for as low as 15 cars. $75 dyno rate applies for only 7 cars showing.
Keep in mine 7 cars have confirmed and 14 are pre-registered. Some others have said they may or may not come or dyno which could make the difference.
Do not let this scare you away, we just need to post it incase only 7 cars show up.

Thanks for the files, but...
Downloaded files then the viewer from dynojet, but all I can see is mph/run what am I doing wrong?

I've never used the program before, so I have no clue.

Kwayne,
Click the label and you can change it. On the bottom switch to engine speed to see RPM. on the right click none and change it to torque. You can then right click the chart and change the display to max values to see your peaks.
