Goofing around today, I strapped the phone to the rear view mirror and took a couple of videos. The sound and picture quality aren't 1/2 bad. The shake is from my rear view mirror wobble. Then, they load right up to YouTube. Amazing.

Be careful on those onramps:

Then, I played with the Dynolicious app. I did 3 runs and all pulled similar HP numbers, which I believe to be fairly close. A side note-the Russell Berry Multimax chip does feel different than the Steve W chip I've had in for a few years. A more even pull through the rev range, where the Steve W map pulled harder from about 4K on.

That looks shockingly good. What timing on the onramp.

Ed, I have used the Dynolicious Ap as well.
Thought the numbers were a bit higher than they should have been for my stock 88.
What % of drivetrain loss are you using?

Ed Hughes

I used 15%. I think it is a couple of ponies low compared to actual Dyno runs I've done. I'm probably conservative on the weight by 50 lbs since I had a full tank this morning. I've got an accurate weight on my car, which is important. It is remarkable that this thing is even close.

That's a great looking video! Ed, you might really like a short shifter. I noticed that your shifts are good, but this vid reminded me how long that shift throw is.

Ed Hughes

I'm not sure I want to rush the shifts any more. I probably shift a bit quicker on the track as I rarely have to go 1st-2nd.

Ed,
Nice video - what muffler do you have? Sounds great.

Ed Hughes

Headers with a dual out Flowmaster. Thanks!

Thank for the ride - squeeky brakes and all. Shift throws look like they should IMHO. Sometimes a short shift kit can slow down your shifts. Keep stirring the box.

How did you attach it to the rear view mirror? That is awesome!! I love it. I like your new rims as well.

really cool Ed. Gotta see some with the mirror stabilized for less wobbling.

Later-

Velcro straps

Squeaky brakes=stopping power. My wife always thinks I need to fix them. She doesn't believe me when I tell her I've actually spent a lot of money and time to upgrade.

The numbers from the best run with the Autothority chip. (took it back out)
It was more drivable in the low end, but the numbers don't lie. :-(

Great video! That's just good karma there with the CHP...and besides, he's probably a P-car fan anyways! Well done!

rusnak

I think 3 seconds in the quarter is a huge difference. Or are you being facetious?
