    dyno: Houston Performance
    date: 12-Jan-2012
    Car: #82 Camaro
    Class: CMC
    Engine: LT1
    Restrictor: 36mm [dual hole] plate + one piece of 2" wide duct tape over the air box opening
    HP: 258
    Tq: 302

    The duct tape will be replaced with an identically sized but more durable piece of sheet aluminum before the first race. Dan is making up some more restrictors with smaller openings for the next time it is on the dyno. Let me know if anyone needs some...

    dyno: Colvin Automotive, Austin
    date: 19-Jan-2012
    Car: #29 Camaro
    Class: AI
    Engine: LT1
    Restrictor: 42mm
    HP: 370
    Tq: 365

    Last season I dyno'd 360/360 with a 38mm plate. Shooting for 375 this year so I swapped to a 42mm plate, made a small change to the tune and dyno'd 355 at ProTech last weekend. HP went the wrong way and the AFR was doing some wacky things...no bueno on the tuning change. No time to fix it though so I just got my annual done (Thanks Kyle!) and put it back on the trailer. Tried a different approach in the tune, went to Colvin today and pulled 370/365 with exactly the AFR I was looking for. Started to try a 44mm plate but not while paying hourly dyno rates. It's close enough...I'll just yank some ballast and call it done. No fun paying for two dynos but it's done now, I learned some stuff, and made sure the tune is safe to go out and beat on.
