Spotlight On: Engine Tuning and Chassis Dynamometers
Get the most out of your car with a MoTeC engine management system. MoTeC is the de-facto standard in engine management and is used in all of the world's finest race cars. We are a MoTeC Dealer and have thousands of hours experience with these units. We do all of our tuning on our Dynapack chassis dynamometer. This is the latest in Dyno technology. Our chassis dynamometer eliminates all variables attributable to the tire/roller interface on a typical "rolling" or "inertia" dynamometer by bolting the dyno to the car. The results are therefore far more repeatable from run to run. Examples of those variables are: tire temperatures, tire pressures and traction slippage. The results are also more accurate since there is no large steel drum with significant mass rotating against the tires. This situation is likened to a large flywheel whose inertia minimizes data fluctuations. While this produces nice smooth power curves, it also masks the power fluctuations that tells the technician what's really going on at specific points in the power curve. Finally, a Dynapack chassis dyno is a much safer alternative to traditional "inertia" dynos as there is no chance of the vehicle coming off the machine should a tie down strap break.
Spotlight On: Fabrication
All of our fabrication is performed in-house with three fabrication specialists. This includes design, roll bar fabrication, full chassis builds, or any special request. We also fabricate our own parts such as intercoolers. No job is too big or too small.
Please call for details.
Spotlight On: Headwork
Most engine experts agree that the key to unlocking the horsepower in your engine is in the cylinder heads. The magic is in finding more airflow by carefully reshaping the size, finish, and shape of the intake and exhaust ports. Our technicians are true experts in the area of head porting and polishing. Multi angle valve jobs, valve guide replacement, beryllium seats, larger valves, titanium valves, no job is too big or difficult.
