TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS AND HAVING FUN IS WHAT WE DO!

We LOVE our jobs here at Dyno-Comp and RENNtech Mercedes of Arizona! Why show up if it's not going to be enjoyable, right? Not to toot our own horns (no pun intended), but our certified and dedicated technicians have proven themselves to be the best in the industry for nearly a decade. When it comes to a custom turbo on a Lotus Exige, or a 720+ HP RENNtech G55 AMG...or maybe it's Customizing a Bentley Speed GT, hmm, or how about that infamous 700+ HP Viper Killer Packages on Subaru STI’s?

At the end of the day, it's this type of diversity in experience, that makes Dyno-Comp the BEST at anything you can throw at us…GO AHEAD, PROVE YOUR POWER!!!

DYNO-COMP TUNED MIATA TAKES IT ALL THE WAY

2010-02-19T14:19:00.006-07:00

Dyno-Comp Tuned Spec Miata takes it all the way to 2009 National Championship SCCA Run-Offs at Elkhart Lake Wisconsin.

When that last 1-HP makes all the difference in the world within the evenly matched SCCA Spec Miata class, (designated SM), driver Steve Powers depends upon Dyno-Comp's tuning expertise to gain that vital edge. Representing the 2009 SCCA SOPAC Division as champion in SM (consisting of Arizona, Southern CA. and Nevada) Steve finished 11th out of 39 vehicles at the 2009 Runoff's held at the Road America facility in Elkhart Lake, WI. this past September, his first time competing at Road America.

His 11th place finish came from a 16th place qualifying position, requiring him to pickup five hard fought positions in this extremely competitive class at an outstanding and challenging track where HP really counts. In the 2009 Spec Miata National Point standings, Steve finished 12th out of more than 220 competitors overall.

Best luck to Steve in the 2010 racing season!

DYNO-COMP C63 AMG HEADERS IN MOTION

DYNO-COMP RELEASES THE ALL NEW C63 AMG HEADERS

2010-02-18T11:30:00.005-07:00

End-All, Be-All of C63 AMG headers

After months of Computer-aided design (CAD) and computer flow dynamic modeling, the Dyno-Comp/MBH C63 AMG Long-Tube header is now available to the public! This C63 AMG header utilizes the same materials and renowned build quality of our famous Dyno-Comp/MBH AMG-55 header. We tested this header on a C63 AMG with stock software and secondary cat delete, and realized gains of 60+ HP. Then Dyno-Comp added RENNtech’s Stage-3 C63 software in conjunction with the Dyno-Comp long tube headers and saw an additional 40-50 HP.

Pretty simple math: Get a 120-130 HP gain on your C63 AMG with Secondary cat delete, RENNtech Stage-3 Software, and Dyno-Comp/MBH long tube headers!!!

This new Dyno-Comp/MBH C63 AMG header has CRUSHED all competitor headers….and literally thousands of dollars less!!!

Features:

2.0” Primary pipe design. (all other competitor headers only use 1-7/8”)
“True” sequential firing order design. This results in cylinder “scavenging” which improves engine efficiency by utilizing the velocity of each exhaust stroke in order to draw fresh air into each cylinder ready for the next combustion cycle.
“Try-Y” design. Specifically for the normally aspirated 63-AMG engine, this “Try-Y” header design further optimizes scavenging effect which dramatically increases top end power while optimizing low to mid range torque.
One piece “mono-flange” design ensures a positive exhaust manifold seal. (other competitor headers relief cut the flash resulting in warped flanges and poor seal.)
304 stainless steel 2.0” primary header pipes.
321 stainless flanges
TIG welded and built by hand by our master fabricator. This is the same craftsmanship and quality of materials that goes into INDY car headers made by the same hands which make the Dyno-Comp C63 and AMG-55 headers.
Pre and post cat O2 sensor bungs
Includes all new gaskets and additional installation hardware

*Requires welding existing OE exhaust to header pipe adaptor.

Introductory Price: $3890 complete!

SUBIE SNO DRIFTIN

2010-02-04T16:30:00.004-07:00

Subaru Rally Team USA member Travis Pastrana and co-driver Christian Edstrom have done it again by taking first place overall in the opening event for 2010 of Rally America, the Sno*Drift Rally in Atlanta, Michigan. The course is a full-on battle that takes place over snow and ice across the back roads of northeastern lower Michigan. With single-digit temperatures and roads covered in a thick sheet of ice, you better believe that this is a tough event!

Travis showed his admirable driving skills as he took a commanding early lead over the rest of the Open class, drifting and dodging his way through the roads covered in so much ice that you could practically see your reflection on the apex of some of the turns. While most of us laypeople will never know what it is like to drive at this level, it is certainly a testament to the capabilities and superior performance of the enthusiast favorite Subaru WRX STI. Come by the dealership today to test-drive one of the many STI’s we have in stock to get a taste of legendary rally-bred Subaru performance!

LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIALS BY RENNTECH

2010-01-22T09:50:00.005-07:00

RENNtech LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL- 2010 PRICE GUIDE

RENNTECH differentials are based on OS Giken's line of Super-Lock LSD which functions as a traditional open differential in low and normal-load situations, transforming smoothly into a 100% full lock as loads rise. The Super-Lock LSDs clutch packs make the unit incredibly quiet and smooth, without the kind of chatter usually associated with limited-slip cars - similar to the AMG units, but better in every way.

ATTENTION V12 MERCEDES OWNERS

2010-01-14T17:01:00.001-07:00

DYNO-COMP is now offering a free R.A.T. for all 2003-2006 V12 ecu's

SL600/65
CL 600/65
S 600/65

Also available are custom tunes and multiple maps (Race, Stock and Custom)

You can reprogram your ECU simply by plugging in the new R.A.T. (RENNtech Auto Tuner). No need to remove the ECU!! Once the reprogramming is complete (about 90 seconds), you can easily switch between stock, for street use, and tuned, for the track, with the flick of a switch.

The R.A.T. is shipped out preprogrammed with RENNtech’s list of firmware and can be sent anywhere in the world. When first plugged into your Mercedes-Benz via the OBD II port, the tuner “marries” itself and uploads the proper file. If the proper file is not already available or you would like to have a custom file made, simply plug the R.A.T. into your computer. The vehicle data is sent to RENNtech and, after being tested, your new file is emailed back to you. If you lose power or the R.A.T. is disconnected while uploading the file, the tuner is designed to automatically recover the stock programming.

DYNO-COMP IS ARIZONA'S ONLY AUTHORIZED RENNtech DEALER!

Barrett Jackson and Russo Steel of Scottsdale are right around the corner. To get the MOST money for your ride, make sure it is running...and running at the top of it's game.

This 1969 Camaro “Retro-Mod”, with a 2006 LS3 was brought to Dyno-Comp with a fresh engine that would barely idle. Wouldn’t that be embarrassing if you couldn’t even drive onto the auction block? Not only did Dyno-Comp get this sexy beast to purr like a kitten, but we even picked up and additional 30+ wheel HP.

Note that the air fuel ratio WAS excessively rich running 10.0:1 or less. Now Perfectly dialed in at 12.0:1

Make sure your custom hits the auction block with a dyno chart emblazoned with the Dyno-Comp logo…imagine that as a selling point! Contact us to schedule your appointment before the big day on the block! 480.596.0500

DYNO-COMP BUILT: AMG SL55 'RED DEVIL' PART DEUX

2010-01-11T15:40:00.009-07:00

THE DEVIL WEARS RENNTECH and IT'S BACK!

They say that Good things always come back around! From Scottsdale to North Carolina and back to the Valley of the sun, one of our existing clients was fortunate to find this very special RENNTech SL55 for sale.

Originally Dyno-Comp built back this SL55 AMG back in 2007 for Ray Durham of the San Francisco Giants. It was featured in the Modified Luxury and Exotics Magazine Jan 2007, “Breaking 500”. CLICK HERE for article

With a bit more dyno tuning we were able to achieve 510 Wheel HP and 540 wheel TQ which equates to a whopping 637hp and 675 tq at the flywheel…and there are plans for more!!!!

Engine Modifications:

RENNtech Stage-5
RENNTech ECU Upgrade
RENNTech Supercharger Pulley
RENNtech Headers
RENNtech Intercooler upgrade
Eisenmann exhaust system

Brakes:

RENNtech (15”) 8-piston front
RENNtech (14”) 4-piston rear

Interior:

FULL RENNtech carbon fiber trim
carbon fiber steering wheel

DYNO-COMP BUILT: 2010 ZR1 CORVETTE

2010-01-11T15:23:00.006-07:00

ADDING HP WITHOUT THE BOOST!

Yes indeed...there's a substantial amount of room left in the ZR1 without bumping up the boost.

MODIFICATIONS:

Kooks Long Tube Headers
Kooks High Flow Cats
B&B Full Exhaust
Dyno-Comp Custom ECU and dyno tuning

BASELINE dyno test (STOCK):
504 Wheel HP: This equates to approx 630 factory rated flywheel HP @ 6600 RPM
490 Wheel TQ: This equates to approx 618 factory rated flywheel TQ @ 6600 RPM

RESULTS:
625 Wheel HP: This equates to approx 781 flywheel HP @ 7300 RPM
598 Wheel TQ: This equates to approx 697 peak flywheel TQ @ 4500 RPM
In flywheel rated HP gains, this equates to:
(+151 HP)
(+108 TQ)

Bone stock we were able to achieve ¼ mile times of 11.6 @ 126 mph, on street tires.
Next event we plan on some running on drag radials. With another 150+ HP on tap, this Dyno-Comp ZR1 should be good for mid 10 seconds!!!!

NOT ALL MODELS ARE CREATED EQUAL

2010-01-11T14:30:00.009-07:00

STATE OF THE ART DYNO TUNING, EACH AND EVERY TIME!

The above 2010 Camaro-SS (LS3) is a perfect example of why we utilize a state-of-the-art dyno for EVERY performance package we build and install. Every car coming off the production line has it's own nuances. You can have 2 identical models with identical modifications, and they will both take slightly different calibrations to optimize HP and TQ.

This retro-mod 2010 SS got the whole gamete of performance parts:

Headers
High Flow Cats
Cold Air Intake
Diablo ECU Programmer

We loaded a base map provided in the Diablo Predator ECU tuner and got approx 365 wheel HP. Utilizing the Diablo Tuner, Dyno-Comp tweaked the calibration to yield 387 wheel HP which is another (+22 HP) and (+18 TQ) at the wheels. Other shops applying a one-size fits all mentality may not have delivered such stellar results.
