Have not specifically had that done, but they always do OUTSTANDING work, race prep Porsche's, build up BMWs from the bottom up and ton's of work on Lotus' - can't say enough good about them.

From speaking with him, I'd say Colin is more than up to that task!

ok I have a Toyota matrix 2zz-ge

Rps max clutch
C-One typer R flywheel
Spyder JDM helical LSD

thanks for your replies.
I need a mechanic who knows what he is doing especially when installing an LSD and have some experience w/2zz engines and tranny.

Looks like you like him and his work
I'll try to call him up and see what he says.
BTW are you guys from seattle?

Yep, from Seattle (actually Bainbridge Island). I am actually trying to get my car out to Colin's to get a baseline dyno and do my beginning of the season track check.

He's about as talented and reputable as they come. Transmission upgrades listing as one of their services.

www.cantrellmotorsport.com

Maybe I will see your car out there.

Colin has a 9AM appt first, so he's setting up a dyno slot nearby for first thing in the AM. Not sure how long that will take. When done, I will head over to Colin's. If I had to guess, I'd say 10:30 or so. If you want me to narrow it down, I will call Colin and ask how long the dyno will be.

He's just doing a track check, fluids change, etc on mine getting ready for track season.

I want the dyno because a.) I haven't checked the car with a green air filter, Forced Fed headers, sport cat and Quicksilver Titanium exhaust. Plus, I'm interested in the PES Ecu so I'd like a (modified) baseline before doing the Ecu (which isn't yet available for 06's)

I tried calling them but apparently Colin is out of town and the guy that I spoke doesn't even want to deal w/me wtf?

I asked him a question about install and he is like talk to Colin.
what kind of customer service is that. At least he could of explain yes we do this kind of service etc..
I am kind of disappointed.

Cantrell motorsports and Dyno

The dyno was really quick and smooth - highly recommend Carb Connection in Kirkland, WA. They have a brand new 4 wheel dyno. I was in and out in about 30 minutes. Results were 168HP and 114 Tq. This is with Green filter, FF headers,and Quicksilver Ti exhaust. All have been on for over 500 miles so I presume any adaptation by ECU has happened. I believe stock HP numbers usually come in around 161 to 164 so if accurate, I am up 4 - 7 HP. Mostly, I am interested in any increases I might get from a PES or Sector 111 ECU upgrade (when available for 2006's.

How do people actually post dyno results? Some look like they scan in and others seem to be able to post more directly. Suggestions anyone?

Tim - Easiest is to take picture of you dyno sheet and post that. Basically the same as scanning if you don't have a scanner.

Kortik - Yes, Cantrell can do you what you need done. Sorry your first encounter wasn't what you expected, but I think these guys are top notch and have always given me the best customer service anywhere. Anyway, they just put in a LSD in my Cobra

Never mind prior post, I read Viper the first time and posted then saw you've got a Cobra.
