Dyno day- Good and bad

[N1XRR]

The good: 146hp and 152lb/ft torque. Not too bad, but the torque curve was VERY flat.

The bad: The dipshits running the place have spare parts lying all over the place, one of those was a 14" rotor that was rusted. It was rusted and sitting in a pile of leaves/dirt right beside their parking lot. When I backed up it kicked up and destroyed my side-skirt and rear bumper skirt. They CLAIM its not their lot and they're not paying for it(just off of the pavement). But I looked at the survey line today and it IS their lot. They still refuse to pay, but here's my question: how much do the side and bumper skirts cost new from Mazda?

i think the side skirts are 200 for the set and the rear valence is like 275. not 100% on the rear but the side skirt price is what i was qouted a few months back at Jeff Hass in west houston where mazdaformance is located. good luck with the situation, get ahold of the insurance, they have lawers for stuff like this :)

I'm calling on Monday to get more information. If its less than $500 for both then I should be okay. The side skirt only has minor damage, the rear skirt is the bad part.

[N1XRR]

I will take some with my phone tomarrow. They're kinda crappy...but that is only temporary until my friend uploads me the pics and video's from the dyno day.

hey man where did you go dyno??? i wanna get mine dynoe'd just to see what im running...

[N1XRR]

I went to Versuch in Anderson. I HIGHLY recommend that you go elsewhere. DO NOT GO TO THESE PEOPLE. They don't even have insurence, as I found out today. Basically, you have to sue them if anything goes wrong(like I would have to do if I want my stuff fixed from them).

There are dynojets in Mauldin and at the Foothills career center in the Greenville area. They are not the only guys in town and I'm going to start a campaign to avoid these idiots.

Aw N1XRR, so sorry to hear about your skirts! :(

BigGun22, as for other dyno places in our area, this guy slowhand just mentioned a place in another thread, in case you want some more options. There's not a lot of info in his post but I'm sure you could reach him for more info.

www.focus-power.com is turbo tom's site.
He is in Belmont, NC off I-85. $50.00 for 3 pulls on a dynojet. I want to talk to him about lower rates for a group of cars if any one wants to do this. He did a Focus group for $35.00 for 3 pulls. He has a BEAST of a ZX3, 500+ whp, and thats just wrong!!!!!!

Took a closer look at the damage today. Its MUCH worse then expected. The rear-skirt just needs to be replaced and it is the only damage back there. The side-skirt is only minor damage on the side. This damn brake rotor completely collapsed my fender and its mount on the bottom. I'm looking at $1500+ in body repairs alone.
