I am getting ready to take a trip to get dyno tuned for the first time. Literally it is my first time even standing in front of a dyno. anyway i need some opinions to make sure i have everything i will need just want to see what you guys think. these are my mods:
-stock shortblock + stock heads
-hi tech stage 2 cams with stock springs(definately going to swap springs out before)
-svt focus pump + kenne bell BAP
-24lb injectors + maf
-zex wet 100 shot
-sct x3 tuner
-longtubes, 4.10's, 75 mm tb, c&l plenum, stock pullies

what do you guys think? i should be ready to go

Looks good to me , you may want to bring a few smaller fuel jets as well, the Zex recommended jets for 100 shot on my car ran pretty far into the rich side.

As long as all that stuff is installed it should be ready

Sweet man, going to the dyno is fun.

Just make sure everything is good, oil, coolant, clean air filter, maybe change your fuel filter and spark plugs to be safe. I usually do that when Im going to get a dyno tune.

speaking about plugs i need to buy some. what do you guys recommend for my n2o setup?

[Shaun03GT]

You need one step colder since nitrous burns hotter. So idk exactly what kind? Idk if you can run autolite 103's. I use that on my blower setup. Which are 1 step colder then stock

NGK TR6, part number 4177 at most auto stores. Recommended gap is .035-.040 for nitrous, though you won't have any trouble if you gap them at .045, the stock coils are pretty darn good

ive heard those a couple of times. but anyways before i take my car i will visit my tuner and go over everything with him before. im sure he will help me put any last finishing touches. thanks guys.

Make sure to wire up the BAP to come on when the nitrous comes on. This will eliminate the lean spike if adjusted properly.

I've heard a tuner say you need fresh oil witj 200-500 miles on in and fresh plugs, after a dyno you need to change oil and plugs right after the tune?

Any truth to this?

[Shaun03GT]

^ No thats completley false. Doing a couple pulls on the dyno is safer then going around town beating the fuck out of it. And you wouldnt put in fresh oil and plugs afer that

never heard of that before, but it can't hurt i guess

i myself would check for normal maintenance things such as tire pressure because you'll be strapped down on the dyno and there's a lot of pressure on the rear tires, oil, coolant, check your belt to make sure it's in good condition. if you're having any issues i'd check them out before going to the dyno.

spark plugs, put a fresh set in, check your cop boots prior to just going up there. i had a spark blow out issue that i wasted my time dyno'ing with. had i changed them out/checked them i would have probably made better use of my dyno time.

change your fuel filter if it hasnt recently been done, ummm that's about all i can think of. the dyno will tell you if things need replaced lol.

Thanks for the info.
