There's nothing mystical or secret about it really

Dyno won't tell you the whole story... you really need EGT's and EMAP as well... EGT's are more important though. Stock timing on the FD was something like 20* @ 1Bar. But like I said.... you really do need a dyno and an EGT datalogs...

Yeah, it really sounds like it dude... AFR's are a touch rich as well... I'd run 12:1 @~7-8lbs... well... are you using the stock CAS? That will effect your timing as well....

LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I get some spare time I'll test brand new off the shelf ones and any other upgraded ones I can get my hands on. I'll also be testing my current shitty PP to see how it compares to stock, but that won't happen for a while.

That would be badass.... I'd like to see that...

So if you did find this engine DJ... fuck you. I pulled the rotors out of the cleaning solution. if it was purple power... it didn't touch the bearings after a 24 hr soak.... regardless, the rear rotor at some point in it's life ingested a bolt and dented the shit out of the rotor.... KNOW YOUR ENGINE BUILDER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sooooo now I'm looking at the coupes old rotors and counterweights... but I would need an aftermkt flywheel Goes against what I wanted to do with the car so I'll have to sleep on it.

Tonights list WAS going to be clean the rotors and all the seals but that's going to hold off until I decide what to do. That and someone who likes crazy deadlines more than me is on his way out here right now from Queens to pick up some parts that I haven't welded yet So I'm going to hop on that, then I'll continue on with cleaning the irons and getting them ready to be ported.... I'll get some pics of the rotor up before the night is out.... pissed am I..... fuckers 1 day in and already a setback. Oh well..... it's not like there isn't enough still to do
