Looks like there's a lot that has already gone on that we aren't privy to...lug nuts, pain chips etc. Shit happens on the dyno that isn't necessarily the fault of the guy trying to tune it...that's why they all have you sign a release.
Oh, and the bridge thing. He's right, there is a BIG difference between a balls to the wall run over a bridge like Gandy and a 1/4 mile run or a dyno run up to your redline and then getting out of it. Being able to maintain sufficient fuel pressure and flow for one is a lot different than the other.
There is alot to the story and if Don wasn't so rude and uncaring about the whole ordeal it would have probably never been posted.In a nutshell,Ken went to modular madness w/ a beautiful flawless sonic blue 03 Cobra and 15K in hand.He picked his car up on a trailer,scratched,broken stud on the rear(MM installed rear tires)melted pistons(plural)30 psi at 5900 rpm,29 degrees of advance and pump gas in the tank,old parts(ported blower,pullies etc...)gone and no one new where they went.And nobody willing to accept any responsibilty?WTF!
