Default Sarasota/Bradenton Dyno

I had my TA dyno'd at a new place in the Sarasota Bradenton area. I haven't been to the track to see how much it helped but it picked up 17 peak HP and in the mid range picked up 20+ horse and more important 30+ ft lbs of torque!! Can't wait to see how it runs at the track!!

Sweet. Where is it, and what's the name?

Do you know of any good transmission shops that can do a TCI 3500 converter with shift kit and cooler install?

The dyno and tuning was done by Todd at Smitty's Speed Shop. It's by Whitfield and 15th St E. I'll get a number for ya later. I know he's on vacation until next week.

I know he can do the converter and cooler. If he can't do the shift kit himself I'm sure he's got a tranny guy that he uses that can do it.

Todd is a good guy. He is the one that has done all the work to my 03 silverado ss that goes 12's and my z28 I just bought. I got similar results as you on the dyno tune with the z. He tunes on a dyno dynamics which reads a little lower vs dynojets in comparison to some other people's #s. Every time I took my truck to the track after he worked on it it would go faster and that is where it counts. mario

You just bought the white '98 right? It was on the lift getting a clutch when I was there with my car.Sounds like you have some big plans for it.Todd said you might be looking to sell your converter,I'm looking for one to put in my TA!!I use to work with Todd "back in the day" at Keech's.Todd is a good guy and knows his shizit.

Thanks for the props guys. Scott I hope your recent theft issue gets worked out quickly. I have my eyes open and made some calls tonight to put others on the lookout. Todd
