If this is like all the other Dyno's I've been to I'm sure i'll be up there late at night.... which doesn't really bother me since I bring my own "flashlight"

just the MS wing. I've gone back and forth on bodykit and wheels so many times my head still spins. Don't want to get wheel before I get a bodykit, can't decide on a bodykit.....

Jedi and I have determined why my recent dyno numbers were low. Front housing has low compression. Dropping it off at dealer this weekend. Hopefully I'll have a new engine by dyno day.

Phil im pretty sure that pettit supercharged 8 is a 6 speed manual (6port engine)
I have a feeling your going to make us 6 port FI guys run for cover with your new numbers

It's on a 6 port M/T with a custom built motor. This guys is going to give you a run for your money Phil!

yeah, I'm still bummed out about your engine's compression.
I'm sure you'll be back up in running in plenty of time for this event and then we can see what these Mazda Reman engines are capable of.

yes, those two engines are very similar.

yeah, really sucks to lose another engine in SoCal.
the craziest thing is that it's not apparent when you drive the car. I've riden in and driven Tim's car and it seems just like mine, you'd never think there was a 30+ hp difference in the two. (unless you drive one car and then immediately drive the other)
Time to "un-mod" zee car and let Mazda do it's thing.
Lets just hope they don't give him the run around for too long.
