Thats my birthday, so if I come I want a short shifter. Im not sure if I can make it, but I would really like to dyno my car for a baseline.

My SVT is still broken....one of these days!

But you have a few backups!

How come you keep accumulating more cars but you don't fix the SVT?

Posted By: shotwell_dup1 Re: Vancouver BC Dyno Day, Aug 6th! - 07/24/05 08:15 PM
I've actually had them, just recently decided to put them in my sig. I only picked up the Malibu because I needed something fairly reliable with decent gas mileage. The El Camino truck is for hauling stuff and the two Montes for eventual restoration.

I keep saying that I'm going to get that car back up and on the road, but every time I say that something else happens and the "fix the SVT" fund goes away. It's really a sad state of affairs. I need a raise.
Maybe I should bring the Turbo to dyno day...

please sign up, this will probably be the biggest focus event in the NW all year!



oh, i'll also be bringing out my 88 930 turbo which will hopefully put down 400 with the new upgrades!

Tim Brown owner of Brown Bros. Ford in Vancouver BC will be coming out and bringing a surprize or 2 with him, a little hint, there were only 350 for them made and they only came in orange!

My Diablo tuner Wayne Johnson, also from Brown Bros will probably be bringing out one of the fastest 03's in Canada and maybe the Browns project 05!

the prizes from myself will be:
1 front upper and lower Euro grill
1 ST170 upper grill
1 FC/OBX SS race header amd hardwire o2 cheater
1 BBK 00-02 TB
and perhaps a few surprizes

once again, there will be FREE burgers w. cond, chips, hotdogs and pop(coke, 7up, rootbeer)


and of course there will be a FC Short shifter for the highest powered Contour/Cougar to showup!

Seafair is that weekend, so I won't be there. It's happening in Seattle, not sure if a lot of Washingtonians will be commin up for that or not *shrug*
Posted By: Shmee_dup1 Re: Vancouver BC Dyno Day, Aug 6th! - 08/02/05 05:27 AM
there are a bunch of washington and oregon focus owners coming up, you guys should try and hook up with them if you are coming up for this!
Posted By: tropictour Re: Vancouver BC Dyno Day, Aug 6th! - 08/02/05 10:14 PM
I also think there are alot of 03/04 Cobra guys from SVTP going up there.

Well that was fun. Got to see some nice foci, from a TC 250+HP one to SC zx3 that untuned went from 160ish to 200 with tune (who says tuning isn't worth it). Since NOT ONE other contour showed up, I gots me a Focus Central Short Shifter for free!

I was very impressed with my numeros! I'll post it later in Dyno/Drag...and pics later too.

also had one of our shop cars hit 247.1fwhp and 199lb/ft with a powerworks SC and our prototype cams on a very fat tune. retune and we will see over 270fwhp from this setup on a stock motor and 94 octane!

you guys missed out on a fun day!


we will be doing this again next year!
Posted By: tropictour Re: Vancouver BC Dyno Day, Aug 6th! - 08/07/05 08:14 AM
What is this 94 octane you talk of? Cant find that anywhere around here. Glad everyone had fun.

Yeah I was just surprised that up here they had a higher octane than 92. Being born and raised in Houston, Tx we always had 93 on tap. And of course 104-114 at Baytown Raceway.
