Message we try and convince all TTZD ([ www.ttzd.com ]) to go to speedworks to dyno, so we can all be 'relevant' to each other and the conditions.

I ran first cause I have the lame car. After I get off the dyno and done with my stuff, the guy hands me my chart...1100RWHP(?) and 1000ftlbs. I was like,,,um, ok, thats a keeper.
the story behind this car, as told by the dyno operator, is that some 'guy' built a fox body mustang in his garage and stuck a t-88(?) turbo on it. no one had heard of the guy before. He just drove it in like it was no big deal. the operator (chris!?) said that it had a single 4" exhaust, but was VERY quiet and super sleeper (essentially). OFF the street (he drove it to the dyno), he put down 950+ rwhp...then after a few runs, he drove it home with another 100+ rwhp. very nice story indeed. they showed us pics of the car and it was very sleeper and very professional looking...'done right'.

second story; blue Z06. sleeper indeed except for the '405 hp' license plate. no big deal, but someone asked about it. "oh yea, he has new plates coming that say 768 hp". apparently a supercharger or turbo charger sit under the bonnet of that beast. they were driving the car through out the day to pick up drinks and food as they got hungry and thirsty. quite the grocery getter indeed.

dunno if my stories are cool, or even worthy of a smile, maybe it was a 'had to be there' kinda thing.
