I heard a roamer a while back there was an AWD dyno a state over from me. Well after looking and asking around guess what. I finally found an AWD dyno in my state... about 45 mins from me. According to many, AWD dynos are pretty rare... there are a few on the west coast and one here or there.....
Going to give these guys a call and talk to them. I dont know how they are at tuning... im guessing they are more into the AWD jap cars (4-6 cylinders) so I dont know if I trust them tuning my truck. Hopefully in the spring after more mods I will make a trip over there and check it out!!!

Congrats on your find!!

(Sorry, i judt didn't really know what to say)
 






Well, if ya want to wait until after you do yer mods, if the place is only 45min away, why not run on over, to see what their operation is like?

well thats what i was planning on... i ment more of doing a dyno run after i finish my latest winter mods... but i was just thinking... maybe ill do a before and after... although its to load for a Stock run
 






hey pur pony what winter mods you putting on? also i know probably aloooot of people ask you this and i will most likely find somehting about it after i re-search for ir again after i post this, but what exact performance mods you running rigth now. and also what ar your horsepower #'s looking like right now and along with 1/4 mile times if you got all of those yet. thanks.
 






Hey-

at the moment -
Stock 302 lower
port matched upper and lower explorer intake.
Ported upper explorer intake
ported stock gt-40 heads
e-303 cam
FMS shortie headers
11lb powerdyne
double vavle springs
roller rockers
MSD-DIS4
42lb injectors
aeromotive rails
aeromotive reg
chip
75 mm pro-m
and i am sure a few other things i cant thing of...

well for winter mods i was going to drop the tranny and get it rebuilt with a custom stall converter, custom 4" power pipe, was thinking of swapping to a vortech blower, and maybe a 331 stroker....... but i decided not to...... No sure on the HP #s yet ..... and the track.... well never got aroudn to that either..... MSD problems last time i made it to the track so i never got a run....
i am trying to remember my best time with a g-tech 0-60 was 5.75( i think) in the rain

i would really love to sell it and work on other things..... i just have not advertised much and would like to keep it- i dont know......
I am building 2 mustangs at the moment and picking up a 302 friday for my ranger.......... I would like to do more 4x4ing and the explorer is not going to get me there... i was thinking of robbing some of the explorer parts for the ranger and then selling the explorer.... who knows... i change my mind all the time-
 






Hey bro what shop are you talking about? theres one in CT and there is one right over the border in MA.
 












rydinhigh - hey whats up? Off the top of my head im not sure on the name of the place.... its down by new haven i believe... i have it all written down at work-
