Dyno Day Results

28/02/2004

Robin was first to arrive at 7:30 am and started setting up the coffee/drinks/nibbles while APC set his car up on the dyno.

It took a little while to get the settings right but made things easier for the 928 onslaught that was to come! Fred and Dean were early arrivals. By 8:45 it was clearly 'action stations'. The day's results are in the table below.

Name	Car	Engine Kw	Peak Power Kw
Chuck	81 Red 4.5ltr 5 Man	176	154.1
Phil Chadwick	85 White 4.7ltr 5 Man	228	205.2
James Dick	86 Burgundy 5ltr 4 Auto	212	157.4
Peter Werba	86 Red 5ltr 4 Auto	212	177.3
Fred Burnham	87 Red 5ltr 4 Auto	221	170.3

Dave Braiso	72 Silver (911) 2.7ltr 5 Man		117.8

It was an interesting session with surprises all round. Congratulations Phil (all this from an 85 4.7ltr).

John Cummings was crying foul at John Gill's 91 GT (why weren't we told?).

Robin and Dean's excuse was 'they're running very lean'. Fred is looking into a new exhaust system with cross-over to obtain more power but his new 18" wheels and tyres were much admired.

Anthony was the surprise attendee of the day with his new Victorian purchase (hope to see you at the next club meeting Anthony).

Chuck didn't achieve full power due to his supercharger belt slipping. The difference between the two 86's was Peter's late night 'Italian tune-up' (next time Robin and James will join you Peter!).

Many thanks for your support. Due to the number of attendees we have a $50 surplus .... this will be used somehow at the next QLD 928 Frenzy. - Robin Gray '87 S4
