Any Idaho SyTy's hanging out: We've got an autox this weekend in Arco, ID. It's a blast if you've never been autoxing or never been autoxing in Arco. Full test and tune Saturday and regular event on Sunday. Usually get 8 runs on a regular event day in Arco and pretty much unlimited seat time...

Hmm, that makes sense. But, isn't the ratio of O2 to other gasses (nitrogen, CO2, CO3, etc) the same at any elevation. If not, your argument makes sense. OTOH, if it is the same ratio, and PSI is absolute and not relative, then 15psi of air compressed from 3' or 6000' would contain the same...

I've had somebody check it out for me. Report was that it is a nice clean Syclone, but overspray in the engine compartment and passenger side door jamb. Dealer told me no body damage/repainting but something is up given the overspray. I did manage to get a carfax and report is not salvage...

I may be wrong, but isn't a turbo capable of sustaining the same boost whether at sea level or altitude? If that is the case the same psi at sea level and the same psi at altitude will make the same hp. Now, I know with blowers it's different because you depend on a fixed pulley so you are...

Anyone know of the truck or its history? Link below. I'm in the market for a Syclone and this one looks fairly promising. I had one of my Dak message board people look at it and it is clean, but apparently has some overspray in the engine compartment and passenger door jam. Carfax doesn't...

Re: So they won't cover Sy and Ty's but they will cover the Re: So they won't cover Sy and Ty's but they will cover the I hear you, on your gripe about lack of coverage anyway. I've owned this R/T for 2 years and this is the first time I've seen any significant coverage in any magazine, so...

Re: videos Re: videos We didn't make it downtown. Glad you liked the video's. We get 3 runs per day on the hillclimbs for a total of 6 for the weekend at all the hills I've done. At autox's in town we get 4-6 per day. At Arco events, it's more like 8 per day, plus the open test and tune...

Re: meet up Re: meet up Here are the video's. They're quite large at about 60MB, so I hope you have a high speed conntection: Bogus Basin Run 5 Runtime 2:05 68MB Bogus Basin Run 4 REVERSE VIDEO looking out over bed Runtime 2:05 68MB Freezeout Run 5 Runtime 1:45 60MB

Re: meet up Re: meet up I haven't been downtown for a few months now, we go a lot in the summer though. No, the Super Dak Dakota is a club cab R/T with a few mods. The Viper Dak is a regular cab blue Dakota with two racing stripes. The Viper Dak owner also has a tri-rotor RX7 that is a...

Naw, no shifter cart for me. I like fast stuff that is streetable. I autox constantly and haven't seen you guys. You should come out, we're getting ready to have a 20 event season of autoxing alone. Plus 3 hillclimbs, Freezeout, Bogus, and Teton. The hillclimbs are the sh*t if you don't...

Re: Purchasing & Autoxing a Sy, some Q's... Tranny a weak point huh? Hmm, sounds familiar, LOL. As far as suspension, does anyone make an aftermarket kit for the Sy. I installed a complete Hotchkis kit (coils, leafs, front/rear stabalizers) and custom tuned Bilstein shocks for a parts cost...

Fellow truck owners, I'm considering buying a Syclone. I have two frames of mind: 1. Buy an unmodded Syclone in near pristine condition with original paint, etc. (garaged, no rust, no repainting/repair, period) 2. Buy a seriously used and abused fixer upper that runs. What could I expect...
