Default Had the car on the DYNO today!

So I went to the big club lexus meet in Orlando today. The first part of the morning was spent at Titan Motorsports. They were doing a DYNO day for the members. There was trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Trophie categories were supras and lexus for highest HP. Guess who came in 3rd place in the Lexus category???? Thats right, it was me!

I will admit there was only three lexus's that went on the dyno. haha
The car made a huge 192whp and 197tq

Here's some vids and a couple pics of me getting my trophie with Jessica Barton!

Your car is still hanging in With the driveline losses, that is just about spec.

Yeah, I figured it wasnt too bad with the trans all messed up (no second gear) and it still feels like it has a slight miss sometimes. They had to gently roll into the throttle in third because she kept wanting to downshift into second.

I didnt really even get to look at the graph myself. They were just wrighting the numbers up on the board for the competion. I'm sure it wasnt pretty anyway. You can hear her hesitating in the last video.

billymild - What do you mean with the button pressed in? You talking about the ECT PWR button? Im not not sure that would really make a difference on the dyno. But those are decent numbers for a stock 1UZ. What year is your car?
