I've never seen someone so bound and determined to put an end to alternative engine madness...  Jeez...

Chad,
A helicopter hovering in ground effect is the closest thing to a dyno you are going to get. Think about it.

I agree with that, the way things are right now. Hopefully someday someone will dyno something to give a base.
It just seems like you're on a mission. I understand the want/need/desire to get a Subie dyno'd...I think EVERYONE would LOVE to see that, but my gosh, it isn't going to help by constantly badgering.

My neighbor at Stellar has his NIB Crossflow, turbocharged engine ready to go. I don't think he wants to run it though as he is continuing to try to sell it. I'm trying to convince him to mount it on Golf Cart for and airport car. That way when the PRSU blows up he can just pull over the side and push it home.
Come Chad, lighten up. Yukon, like me, is just trying save lives. Maybe we could get nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for our Humanatarian efforts.
Watch for the new book coming out soon, "An Inconvenient Subaru."

Hey, saving lives is a great thing! Keep it up! Who knows, you may have saved mine!
I'd like to see a dyno as bad as the next guy! Crossflow, Egg, NSI, Maxwell, someone?
Might need to check with Gore on your book title though...

Well that sorts it out: it probably ran out of fuel.

It's a lively discussion when moderators are moderating moderators! Got to love it!

Just proves the rules of decorum apply to everybody although some are more flagrant and frequent violaters than others.

I would call him an intelligent patriot who is almost as smart as me.

I would say based on apparent selection criteria for the award there is an excvellent chance you will be selected.
