My stealer tells me that the closest dyno is in Atlanta.

Does anyone know of a place that is less than 1.5 hrs away from Anderson SC?

I am pretty sure you can find a couple in Myrtle Beach. Do a search in the Smart Pages for Motorcycle shops in Myrtle Beach. I know that B&M (17 down from the Pavillion) may have one and if not they are stellar guys that can steer you in the right direction. Plus you can spend a day at the beach. The fall rally is around the corner. :D

Jimmy ...

When you take your bike to the dyno, I suppose you are going to try some various settings on the TC88A ignition?

If so, will you let us know what settings got you the best power without detonating.

P.S. Mine runs real strong on 3-3 and I may try 3-4 now.

Thanks,
Ron

Hey Ron

I found a place to dyno the bike during the summer.

It was in July or August, when it's really hot here.
At that time, temps were in the low to mid 90's and humid, the setting that got the best performance was 0 and 4

We did 3 pulls with about four different settings.

We started at 5 and 5 and moved down from there. I never experienced pinging at any setting, just loss of power. The dyno guy thought this was because I'm running a little rich, and using 93 octane.

When the weather cooled down a little, I put the initial at 1 and kept the advance at 4 , and it seemed to have a little more off-the-line power.

That test was with my butt dyno though.

The dyno operator suggested I try a lower octane than the 93 I'm using.
He said the higher octane has a slower burn rate, and when messing with the timing it could make a big difference.

I need to get it back to him now that the weather has cooled off, but I'm short of cash right now so it'll have to wait a while.

BTW, the summer tests showed the TC88 gave me about 3 more horse and torque over my SE ignition. :clap
