run the car on the last dyno it was on.... only way to get a comparison. By introducing another variable (different dyno) any comparison is null and void.

Yeah like you said the throttlebody is a cheap item and we did the excersise for no other reason than i had a Q45 lying around and said customer is a good friend and i offered to run it up no charge b4 and after for data.... if it had the 10cm instead of 8cm rear im sure we would have seen good gains.

10cm is on it now, is it not? Time to give it another go :down:

This thread is awesome! Well done warlord! Question... Do you have any timing dialed in on the cam gears for the hks camshafts?

I watched the video up until around 3 mins. You arent heating the Mickey Ts up much, if at all.

My advice from MT was to give them a serious smokey burnout to set them in, then small burnouts thereafter.

I think you need to heat them up alot more to reach their full potential.

as i was warming the m/t i would notice a funny feeling each time so i would stop the burnout ,what was happening was both wheels start spinning then one would stop ,so i would stop.

fix that problem and i would have no problem heating them up.

the joy of remodifying a car - nick, your setup is a beast atm...how much better can it get?

thats right, you want it to break traction in 5th gear without the clutch haha, isn't 3rd gear enough u greedy man?

    • OK. But what about parts of the block that, when assembled, were twisted into a position that pushed into the void space, which, when disassembled, then released that force and opened back up, thus putting the grout into tension? Would effectively just pull the cast iron off the grout at the interface, leaving a tiny void and benefitting not much at all. Swings, and roundabouts. It's like putting something tiny into the fleshlight and finding out you needed a smaller one, to perhaps follow your area of expertise.
    • Nah. You buy a kit that has shorter tubes.
    • I didnt present too many conclusions because I wanted your opinions and feedback based on your own experiences. I don't know the exact material, but it is similar to concrete and therfor only has valuable strength in compression. The forces on the set material once the head is removed would mostly be in compression since the grout wants to retain its shape and the block wants to return to its relaxed state since it's still within the elastic region. The grout would theoretically make the block more rigid. The exact amount would take a better setup on my end. Thought experiment: Instead of aliens, twist your favorite fleshlite. Now fill it with grout and allow it to sit for a week. Now try to twist it again. Observe what you see. Now get your other one and blow into it. Observe what you see. Now put it into a can and fill the space between your fleshlite and the can. After it sets blow into it. Less movement in torsion and less expansion i hope.
