Let Baby Bro take it for a rip this AM, and added another click of compression to the front.

I try to use OEM Porsche parts wherever I can. It is a little more expensive but it is what it is.

That's a really nice trailer.

4.0 GT3 TT is finally ready to fire up... some finishing touches needed, but that'll come over the winter after tuning and hopefully a couple of track tests.

Hopefully not too much... the old exhaust setup (EBWerks X pipe) did have some spicy moments from time to time, especially early in the tuning process....

Wow! I see you're tuning on a Dyna Pac - how do you find them?

That one is a Mainline Pro Hub actually but I think the Dynapacks are similar. Loved using it. So much easier than worrying about strapping the car down onto rollers and everything that comes with that and the way the dyno could manage load and limit rpm made tuning in each operating cell a breeze. Unfortunately, he sold it and moved out of state.

I have never used one, but I thought that the ability to do steady state testing and simulate varying different driving conditions was neat.

Who is going to tune it now then?

Yeah, it's a great feature. Basically no adjustments required from dyno to track.

I'll still tune it myself, I've got a couple of options for dyno rental that I need to explore. Haven't seriously talked to any of the owners yet since the car has been not ready. One actually is a dynapack, other is a dynojet. I know pwdrhound uses dynojet so it would be nice to have that to compare data as close to 1:1 as we can get. I might do the initial tuning on the dynapack in the mid range/light load areas since I'm more comfortable using that setup for that type of tuning and then switch to dynojet for the final full power tuning stuff.

You're running a MOTEC like John, is that correct?

So, can you plug an AFR target into it and go from there?
