I may bring my little rotor head (son).
Now that we know that everyone is going to be there....are we having PIZZA?

 

if someone can bring a small bbq grill and charcoal we can bbq for lunch. I have a pack of leftover hamburgers from last weekend. Maybe we can all chip in a lil bit and buy some food for a bbq..i'll call steve at the dyno shop tommorow to find out if its cool.

 

**** PIZZA FOR DYNO? ****

 

BBQ mmmm!!......chip in sounds good.

 

Bryan, I say we just go for Pizza.... less work. =)

 

Here's a picture of some of the bad coil packs we removed on Saturday: (note the burn marks)

 

pizza does sound good, I was just trying to get rid of these frozen hamburgers I had in my fridge..hahaha

btw, my coil packs looked very identical to those.

thanks jedi

 

RSVP Confirmed cannot wait to see what my stock 8 puts out so that way I have a base for the mods to really see what it can do.

 

how did you guys know the ignition coil packs were going bad and that it was time to change them? was there an obvious sign and/ or did you notice a big loss in power?

i ask only because a few years ago i had an ignition coil go out on me in my beamer. and, the symptom was blatantly obvious, because all-the-sudden every gear felt like 5th gear. i could still drive around, but very little torque. when it happened, i pulled over, called my garage, and they had me drive over there and they fixed it the same day.

 

sopheak: you coming with us on Saturday?

Detrich: the coil packs wasn't super obvious but some people notice that the idle is a bit rougher, possible misfiring, hesitation under heavy acceleration, etc.

 

does anyone have a power adaptor so we can keep my laptop running all day?

 

in the continuing effort to get my car ready for Saturday, cleaned my RB air filter for the first time last night. First of all...what a fricken pain to get it out....Two, that thing was fricken nasty. I bet I pick up a couple of HP that I have recently lost given all the crizzap that I cleaned off that thing.

I had to do three rounds of K/N cleaner to even get close to being clean.

 

holy smokes Keith! Yeah, mine was NOT pretty when I pulled it out. Did you look in the airbox and see all the dirt / pebbles that get in there?!

 

damn Keith, you're going all out for this Dyno Run! You replaced coil packs also, right?

 

mine was full of sand....but I was anticipating that, given the sand storm I was in. Yup, pretty full of junk.

 

I bet your big *** sway bar didn't help for getting that air filter out! Mine was already a tight sqeeze with the stock bar.

 

sway bar for taking out the filter?

 

WOW, WHICH REMINDS ME..TIME FOR NEW hks HONEYCOMB REPLACEMENT..GOOD THING I HAVE LIKE 5 OF THEM..HAHA

 

HAHA!!! that's too funny Bryan! I wash I just had new K&N filters to put into mine... I had to break out the K&N "Recharger Kit".

Danny: the filter is removed from the backside of the RB box so the bar gets in the way when pulling it out of the engine bay.

 

... strut bar?

 

yeah...that thing! haha

 

Hey Jedi what kind of laptop do you have? I think I have a power cord. Maybe I can look in my garage and see if I have the power converter so I can plug it in my lighter thing.
