^^hehe got you beat i'm abotu to hit 33k...so i'm pretty sure mine is broken in:D


It's not governed in 6th - there's a vid of me hitting 184mph in 6th..

Oh...and the mileage thing - yeah, Nemesis dyno'd that day too - he has 23K miles, and dyno'd the same as my car.

A rotary with brand new seals and brand new housings takes 500-1000 miles at MOST (it can even take less than 500) for the apex seals to seat properly against the housings and for break-in to be done. A rebuilt rotary with used housings and new seals will take longer (since the seals have to seat against the old wear pattern) and will take 1000-2000 miles to be fully broken in, at most. So I dunno what that tech was saying with 10k miles but oh well.

Yes they were wrong... Having the probe after the cat means that some of the emissions/unburnt fuel has been cleaned out by the cat and your reading is now incorrect. You need to have no cat/s in front of the probe in order to get correct readings.

Yes it does.

Not only is it wrong but also the readings are inconsistent.

i understand what your talking about with the sniffer but that doesnt mean that your gonna get a wrong reading, take for example the many times i have dynoed 03-04 cobra's with a wideband 02 sensor in the cat and have gotten the same readings on the computer as the ones from the sniffer on the dyno computer, and consitent throughout the rpm band?
