Yes, it was a lot of fun, disappointing for some of us, but we will get there. I think I am still a little high from the fumes, I know I cooked a few brain cells. Now it is on to autocross time. :D

I ended up dynoing afterall.
I got 190.6 whp with 135.6 tq. which was the highest except for Charlie. He had around 206 whp with about 145 tq (i don't remember how much exactly but he just smoked everyone.) I think he secretly installed a Motec or something. Everyone else was in the 180s IIRCC. The cars just wailed on the dyno. It was a cool expereince.

They did scream. I am due for new plugs and the "n & P" flash, and plan on going again after that, just to see if it really makes a difference. Charlie felt like it would. Only Nabil and Charlie had smooth charts for lack of a better term. The rest of us experienced big drops at between 7k and 7500.
But it was fun. uacolon and Nabil both have a lot on video, I would like to see it one of these days.

OD, you and I have the same setup now other than the pulleys that I am running.
I am now sporting the RB exhaust that all of us have. I am also running the latest generation of spark plugs and the p flash. The car is making more power now than it did when I tested the header which really blows me away. The header only increased out put by 2hp/2lbft tq but I took it off before the p flash. By the end of this week I hope to be deep into the build up of the prototype cat pipe. If it turns out to be a winner we will produce it but only if it's quiet and makes real power.
I think I am close to 30 dyno runs now and it just keeps getting better. This really reminds me of the early 3rd gen days when so many things were being tried. It really makes for a great overall package when the right stuff gets used together.
I look forward to seeing results after reflashes and new plugs for those that have not done so. I also want to see how ValPacs care does with the exhaust since it was tested w/ intake only.
Actually, no MoTeC but since you caught me.......... Tandy 80!

Charlie,
Thanks for inviting me. Your car looked and sounded awesome? I think a great time was had by all including Habeeb Al Hassram. I look forward to some dyno postings.
