Dyno Day is coming

I'm set to dyno the car on Feb 10. This is an annual event for my car club. (Mostly 2002-2005 Civic Si hatchback owners)

The last time I did that was two years ago, whereupon my 2002 Civic Si laid down a not-so-mighty 136.7 whp.
Sad to say, I hardly expect to do much better two years later. I have not really added any real horsepower to the car, but the handling is top-notch and the brakes are improved. I'm gunning for 140 this time with my new mid-pipe and Spoon axleback. The shop where we dyno, Dyno-Pro in Denver, CO will plot me a chart with before and after since I'm in their database already. Should be good times. Some of these kids' cars are throwin' down 300+ hp. Insane.

I can't wait until amateur moto season returns! Looks like autocross will be the main course this year as the tracks are mostly gone. That's OK. Autocross is pretty fun, and I'm still in Street Touring - S, where I am just beginning to become competitive. Maybe I'll concentrate on a top ten STS finish in 2006.
