Default Long ride and dyno tomorrow

Well, got a 600 mile ride round trip tomorrow leaving at 6 AM. I think it ought to be a pretty good ride, having dyno tune done and hope post dyno "feel" is what I was after.

Right now, I have two tune runs completed using a Dynojet map for my cams and TD set up. My MPG is 48 which I think reflects a [lean] condition and I note some slight ping on grades.

I will post up dyno, not concerned with big #'s just want a dialed in tune.

I will be interested to see the torque curve with the MGS &TW222 combo.

I was 85 hp & 100 ft/# trq with the SE255 cams and V&H power duals/monster rounds that I had been running. I do have a dyno sheet in my albums for that.

See ya all tomorrow with the post dyno review.

if you do have ping etc.

as best you can take note of the grade, gear, rpm etc.

this may help with any on-going tuning.

I did similar thing a couple month ago. Left from North of Houston and road to Dallas. About 220 miles one way. Had a half *** tune by laptop of 85hp and 90tq, but 25 mpg. Left Dallas with 96hp and 96tq and 39mpg. Nothing beats a good dyno run.

Good luck on your dyno run.
