No dyno yet. Today he will hook me up with the software and loan me a cable, so I can do some datalogging over he next few weeks. If I have any comments, we'll look at doing a few tweaks if necessary. Then will come dyno - hopefully sometime in early June

Meh... if it happens, it happens. I have to have the car tomorrow and after work today is the only opportunity to pick it up.

I know, just keep your wits about you.

You can outrun those twisters. Drive your Z in zig-zag patterns... twisters won't be able to keep up.

Morning Ziggaz!

that's cool you can log your parameters. reminds me of my old wrx with the piggyback and my laptop.

hey haboob

didnt want to post at digi's thread cause it's already bad enough his car's all banged up.

but yah, this is when dd's come in real handy. while i would be saddened to see my fit all banged up, honestly, i dont really care. i would get it fixed or just buy another one, or another dd.

but not the same if this happened to my Z.

and thus, i dont pull her out when i dont have to. kinda hard to do that when one's Z is their dd.

kenchan · 05-21-2013, 10:46 AM

Definitely.

Maybe one of these days I'll be able to get me a DD. It's just a bit tougher (maybe just for me) to rely on a cheap, used vehicle to be reliable in the Summer heat out here sitting on the freeways.

I'm perfectly content sleeping in my car in the garage at work if I have to wait out a hail storm.
