This should be fun. I can't wait to see 10 dynos within 5hp of each other

If some of you want to be creative, try doing things like before and after resonator removal.

I would be embarrassed to dyno anything like a TSX

Here is a real dyno of my Z06, It would take 3 TSX's to equal it....

What kind of ignorant comment is that?

What's wrong with dyno'ing a TSX? If you feel embarrassed to dyno a TSX, you shouldn't be driving one then.

I went to AR Fabrications in Winchester last March. Only had a CAI in (not like I did much engine work since) and was happy. It was free too and I went right after some DSM's pulling 500hp and a Gorgeous white Evo. If you are ashamed of your car don't bring it to a dyno. The shop owner was impressed my family sedan pulled pretty well.

I'll go if its cheap, and if not, I'd probably show up just to see some other k-series cars.

I don't see a point to dyno a stock car.

it can be a good baseline, or at least some proof of what your car makes. but it will be a pretty pitiful competition since as Dan said they should all be close.

my other car is a >330 awhp vr4 and I have no reservations bout dynoing my tsx, not everyone wants to drive a gas guzzlin muscle car on a daily basis. For a commuter car the TSX is great and dynoing it now is a good baseline to judge how effective future mods will be

It was ok, barely broken in engine and CAI. I (had the shop) only run it up to 7000 because I was timid. No longer, I'm going up to rev limiter next time, as they said it was still pulling hard right up to redline.
