That's good to know, I asked this question here the other day: How do you do a proper dyno comparison?

Funny how opinions and wrong info can turn into fact on message boards. Several people in other threads have been saying that the car will get faster and dyno higher after 20-60 miles. Which led me to start that thread. Dynoing would be a real pain if you to drive it around for awhile after each mod.

Yes,

You have to dis connect the steering shaft. You will never get the driver side manifold out or the new header in if you don't.

Tony mentioned that he spoke to you about doing the Dyno on 5th gear instead of fourth...Just wondering shouldn't the Dyno guys at the shop have known this?

Tony do you think its gonna make a significant difference if he does another run on 5th gear? Would you recommend that it runs awhile first before he should choose to try again?

So then why after a modification That hasn't been given time on the car power increases with each pull.

I haven't personally seen this trend first hand. I will, however, test this out in a couple of days when I dyno a customers 370Z. We already have baseline dyno's that were ran well after the mods were installed. If the ecu had adjusted for them in open loop, it would have been reflected on those pulls. Before I do these next set of pulls, I will reset the long term fuel settings. If what you are saying is correct, then I should, theoretically, lose power.

If I'm wrong, I'll gladly come back here and eat crow

wouldn't the "pedal trick" reset the ECU and have it relearn in about 50-100 miles?
