Pro Power's Dynojet is wide enough to accommodate dualies without taking off the outside wheels. This made it much quicker to get trucks on and off of the dyno.
Wet weather was not enough to dampen the spirits of New Mexico's diesel enthusiasts at this past December's New Mexico Turbo Diesel Register (NMTDR) Dyno Day. Although the Turbo Diesel Register is exclusive to Dodges, this event was open to all makes and models of diesel trucks. Over 60 pickups representing the Big Three auto manufacturers showed up at Pro Power Dyno Services. Trucks from around the state were rolling on and off Pro Power's Dynojet from sunrise to sunset.
DURAMAX ATTACK
Multiple monitors gave everyone in the crowd a chance to see the numbers that the trucks were putting down at any given time. Additionally, owners had the option of driving their own trucks on the dyno or letting the staff of Pro Power take control. As anyone who has been on the dyno before knows, there is a definite art to loading the truck and keeping it from shifting during the pull. The rollers on the Dynojet weren't the only thing that were smoking.
Jeff Argo, NMTDR president, brought a barbeque and Ron Heer and Chuck Peeples of Valencia County Choppers kept the grill busy preparing burgers and hot dogs all day. Newly Tolf of Underground Diesel brought a large contingent of Duramax trucks with him from northern New Mexico (see a feature on his Duramax on Page 110). Donnie Hodges' LLY-equipped GMC put down 542 horsepower with stock turbo and injectors with EFI Live tuning. Tolf's LB7 Duramax generated 572 horsepower thanks to the BD Super Max turbo and EFI Live tuning.

Pro Power's facilities were new, with state-of-the-art dyno equipment and plenty of room for all of the trucks and people. Multiple flat screen monitors in the facility allowed everyone to see the numbers that each truck put down in real time. |
