Hey Outlaw Dyno guys, any truth to this car's story?
Permalink Closed


Whats up with the fox body they blew up twice? Heard about it a couple days ago. Blower car making decent boost. The owner got it tuned and he didn't like the numbers and wanted more. He went to Outlaw and they got him over 500 hp to the tires and the motor broke. He had the motor fixed, went back to Outlaw and they blew it up again.

The guys I heard it from knew it was Outlaw Dyno that fucked it up, but they didn't know much else. Obviously I didn't get the whole story and my buddy didn't know a lot of details, just the basics.

Figure 2 things, either this story isn't true and someone is pissed off at Outlaw or it is true and they should take some basic tuning classes from someone who knows what they are doing. If thats how they tune cars then they should start packing now because they won't be in business much longer.

heres the question, when the owner wasnt happy did he know that an unsafe tune to get the most power out of it could blow? even if the car is on its stock block he should of known! not trying to cause trouble, just want to make sure its the dyno shop pushing for the most power

who the hell knows. this story came from somewhere though. any reputable shop that knows how to tune properly won't give you a tune that the car can't handle. if they do then they shouldn't be tuning cars or even allowed near one. if the owner wanted them to push the car beyond what it could take then the shop should have told him about it and not gone any further and advised him to go elsewhere for that kind of tune.

Don't see why someone would make up the story though. I know that Outlaw will blame the guy who did the motor and vice versa, but in the end they still put a car on the dyno twice and blew it up twice. Doesn't say much for their tuning abilities.

Just thought it was funny cuz so many in that blackout crew hang off the guys' nuts about how great he is. Now he is reported to be blowing up fox body blower cars, not exactly a tough car to tune. Then to hear it was tuned by one guy for a low # and the owner didn't like it so he went to Outlaw, made the # he wanted and his car blew up. Love to hear the real story, but most likely never will. It will be finger pointing at everyone and time to play the blame game. Thats the kind of guy I want tuning my car.

Did the engine grenade on the dyno or on the street after he left ? So many reason's why this could happen .
If they were tuning it to lean just to get a number .... then yes the tuner would be at fault . If the A/F was safe and there was no detonation from excessive timing advance ... then it could have been the owner from not having adequate engine components for the level of horsepower he was going for . If Outlaw didn't build the engine ... you can't blame them . It sounds to me ...by what you stated in the opening thread that the owner of the car had a safe tune originaly .... got greedy ... wanted a number ... and now some how it's the tuner's fault . I've seen this happen to many times .... Shit !! .. I did the same thing to my car and melted a very expensive mod motor because I wanted a number and didn't listen to the warnings my tuner was telling me !! smashfreakB
So was it Dez's fault .... NO !! .. It was mine !

A tuner that will keep going with a car knowing it is unsafe just because the owner wants to is not someone I want near my car. Shame on your tuner for blowing up your motor and thanks for proving why I always stayed away from Dez.

Anyways, I guess the guy left outlaw after their first tune, got on it and something broke. I think he wanted a # that the first tuner would do since he wanted to keep the car together and then he went Outlaw who didn't care if it blew up and gave him what he wanted. Outlaw did not build the motor. I don't know who did. Not sure what happened the second time.

1st off.... saying we are on their nuts.... go fuck yourself!

We are good friend of theirs. I recommend Outlaw because he does good work for a new shop. I also recommend Dez and Dyno Performance too.

2nd, He will never tune a car past its safety. He does what every good tuner does and asked: what numbers are you looking for? If its a high number, he will be the first to say thats not safe and you can see it with the air/fuel reading. If something happened with the tune, they will have no problem retuning for free or until its where it should be safely. I see motors blow all the time. Hell, the motors ESP builds blow all the time. So does motors from MMR or DSS.

He would never tune for high numbers unless its safe.

C'mone Nick !! Are you for real ?? I guess you can't read very well !! I'm the one that broke my car .. Not Dez !! I left Dez's with a good safe tune . However after I left and went to the track . I grabbed the PMS screen and added alittle more timing and took out a little fuel to try and push my car in the 10's !! So Dez didn't break it ... I did !! That was my point about getting to greedy ! LOL !
Besides if you go to a shop and tell them to set it on KILL and you have been warned not to do it ... How do you blame the shop for doing what the customer wanted ? Thats like saying ... " My buddy had a 800 horse cobra built by who ever racing and he couldn't handle it .... lost control and hit a tree ! .. So there for I'm not ever going to that shop .. there trying to kill people !! " See how stupid that sounds !! smashfreakB The problem here is this is how false roomer and bad reputation's start ... when you don't have all the facts ... you should NOT be posting about somebody elses misfortune . no.gif

Nick get your facts straight... looks to me like you fill in the gaps of unknown info with BS. As many have said they would not do it to blow up your car. They will however mostly do what you want them to, and yes they will let you know the possible damage that could be done. This isnt the first pointless thread of BS you've started. Just my 2 cents

Well these are facts.

1) Outlaw dyno blew up a car twice and I found out that is now getting repaired again at some shop.

2) The owner went to Outlaw and had the tune redone causing the car to blow up. He had the motor fixed and it blew up again on Outlaw's dyno. Whose fault it is remains to be seen, but I am sure everyone involved will point the finger at everyone else.

Mineral, you never stated in your original post that you were the one who blew up your car. Here is what you said " I've seen this happen to many times .... Shit !! .. I did the same thing to my car and melted a very expensive mod motor because I wanted a number and didn't listen to the warnings my tuner was telling me !!
So was it Dez's fault .... NO !! .. It was mine ! "

I read that as Dez kept going with it at your request even thought he told you it was unsafe, not that you did it yourself. I know you said you did it, but I didn't read as you personally doing it Thats my error.

The only thing I don't know is who did the first tune, who did the motor work, who is fixing it now and why Outlaw kept going with the tune on a car that I imagine is far from setup right if it blew up. The story is true, just not sure what the complete story is yet. For any of you doubters go ask Outlaw about it. I am sure they know since they were the ones tuning it. I'd like to know if the story is accurate myself.

Why everytime Nick gets involved in Lounge threads it ends with him starting shit or ws/e you wanna call it...id Outlaw "blew up the car" then so be it...im sure every dyno person has blown a motor at one point or another...to me you just seem really arrogant and try to put anyone/thing you can down...dont get me wrong youve contributed in the tech section here and there but other than that its always a problem with you and someone else on this site...im not saying this to start shit up with you again...we had it out and it was ended...atleast on my end...just a third party observation here

we are dealing will performace/racing engines not factory motors

racing engines blow its the name of the game theres limited reliabilty compared
to stock

got to a repair shop ill use my dads for instance his garage he can guarantte his work and replacement part.

he cant guarente if hi puts a s trim on your vette what its going to do

get my point MINERAL 02 is right
it happens get over it people like u nick are why shops have bad reputations and lose buissness over this

and for dez your right NICK it isnt worth going to dez for anything but thats why he tunes
some of the fastest mustangs on the east coast!

MINERAL 02 is fuckin right end the drama!

If in fact Outlaw blew up the guys engine. Why did the guy go back for round #2? There are alot of cars that head to the dyno and they are not even ready for it. I'm sure that anyone that runs a dyno knows that if the motor don't sound good they won't even touch it. Let alone tune it. I'm sure the dyno guys have seen it all. What broke in the guys engine?
