shadey, you're 2nd!!!
if you're not there at your allocated time, you'll be moved to the end of the list and we'll get you on if we still have time.

Keep in mind everyone: trying to dyno tune 20 cars is going to require everyone to be there and for us to be as efficient as possible.
See you guys in the morning

Easy_E1 had some duct take and wire hangers with him, PLUS we think the rest will buff right out.

soo...heard my beastie gave you guys issues...

possibly...burned out clutch (altho it was JUST) replaced...due to me letting ppl drive it, who dont know how to drive such a sensitive setup...and thus now slipping...which would explain why the whp/tq were flatlining...

or something in the intake tract...the flappity valves which i noticed before i left were acting up and thus probably not opening up...after the 7.5k transition...

once you guys post the data, i'll be able to diagnose it from here...still sucks from what i heard...

That is most likely the reason. The power stays around 140ish then shoots right up after 7k. Very strange I would have a look at any valves or diaphragms to see if there sticky. Good luck man!

Yea...I'll take apart the whole UIM, rip out the valves, stepper motors and sillynoids...I'm pretty sure the boys who installed the reman engine waz dewin it wrong...or gunked something up...



did you guys ever see the peak when the all the ports opened up?

just went thru the shop manual...mentally ripped it all apart...

Hypothesis: sounds like the steppers for the intake during the second stage are most likely the issue...PCM is going WTF as the mix and sensors do the HUH? and then when the third stage pops open...its all like...OHHH...OK!!

Grrr...the dataz will confirm...as soon as somone wakes up those drunken bastages and get to teh posting...heh
