  1. We've had 2 early builds scatter completely, lots of pieces. There were a couple piston updates, and they're pretty damn solid engines after that
  2. There are a lot of people way smarter than me on the interwebz apparently.
  3. Still confused by this. What happens when you increase MGP above Baro by another method, is it then considered a turbo?
  4. We didn't even see 160 with a pipe and tune
  5. it is not 3 hp less than what i hoped for. anything under 175 was going to be a let down for me
  6. i dont. there is too much stupid, and i dont have time to address it all
  7. it's amazing for me to accept that ANYONE wouldnt care about HP numbers. absolutely unreal. i think you'd be happy on a 340 fan, with bogie wheels
  8. Thats not terrible for an na motor. Would i like to see the peak power at 12.6 though? Absolutely. And peak torque around 12.2
  9. Cant utilize 165 horse on a trail? I respectfully disagree as i use twice that
  10. You just answered every question i had about you, thank you. Conversation over
  11. How much time do you have setting up, calibrating or running dynos?
  12. I dont think you understand anything about dynos, or facts.
  13. That's what correction factors are for, genius
  14. We'll be heading to jaws to develop a twin pipe/porting combo this summer, hopefully we can make good gains but i had really hoped for more to work with.
  15. Al gore invented the internet, and global warming. The man is a genius!
  16. I always wonder if it's better to be retarded.
  17. one other thing i'll throw out there for the guys that may be just starting to see ethanol in their area, and we learned here the hard way, it is a great cleaner. and the downside to that, is that tanks and lines that have never had it before will get all those years of crap cleaned off the inside when they initially start to switch over to it. and that sludge goes right through the pumps to your car, truck, sled or whatever. after switching over, stations were seeing massive amounts of sleds go down shortly after fueling up. and, it will also clean out the entire inner lining of any older fuel line produced before ethanol fuel existed, putting a nice pile of black goo in your pump, filter, injectors etc
  18. you'll actually make a bit more power with the ethanol too if you can tune for it. when rules allow, we add a fair amount of pure eth to the race fuel and have measured the gains on the dyno and track. for anything carbed, we usually add about 2 jet sizes to compensate for it. storage is a month max in my experience. the 2 best fuel treatments i've tested to stop the phase separation issues are ethanol shield, and startron
