Speaking of needing plugs swapped, did an oil/filter change and found my front leading plug wire has been disconnected for at least 3,000 miles. Judging from the RUST on the plug terminal I'm saying longer. Tore the house apart over the last two weeks trying to find the ones I ordered when I moved here to no avail, looks like it's time to drop another $100 on a set. In other news, 2130-0600 shift with thur-fri off sucks. Hope to see pics from this coming weekend!
here is my observation on the dyno numbers... Missy with a 170 won for NA (stock no tune) Shady for bewsted and mostly-tuned (insert number) 9ks run was all over the place and needs moar tune... the numbers based on the 2 sheets that Missy received possibly left up to +30hp off the readings for the rest of us... her first run showed 138 but they could not get the RPM lead connected to a coil wire, for the dyno to read consistently. They ran her car again but had the HP calculated off the roller speed (MPH) instead of engine speed and she got a 170... or its all BS and what the hell do I know cause I got a 167 (tuned NA)
...but my AFRs and power curve did come out smooth...
LOL...

It was a mobile dynojet, according to some of the speed 3 dudes that particular dyno gives weird readings all the time.
Which is why that brand new speed 3 with a tune, cat delete, intake and bov, only pulled 240.
And the bone stock R3 pulled 140.

my brand new ported and semi tuned n/a motor made the following
.....gonna go crawl off in a hole and die
I will through out there I have a SSV solenoid code and I think my bank 2 injectors are sized wrong because the drop on power/AFR's from 5-6krpm not an excuse but...well I'm drawing at straws.....I will say, screw the dyno the track from super fun!!!!!

you should see mine.No. As far as I am concerned. I just don't see a low mileage R3 with just a RB catback only making 144HP. If I had to guess I would say it was off 30-50HP. So that means Shady is close to 300WHP which is respectable especially since he had some rich spots that could e tuned out.
