Postponing Dyno Day

[Project323]

is corksports dyno in house?

we're actually getting it done about 5 mins away at a place called Ground Zero Motorsports. Ralph, the guy who owns the dyno is a friend of CS and also owns a 650 hp 3rd gen rx-7. check out there site.

it gonna run me 400$ for 4-5 hrs. enough time to tune the ish out of it. according to derrick tho, i need to get about 500-1000 miles on my new pistons 1st before i tune it tho, so it'll prolly be postponed a couple weeks.

Here's a pic of why my block needed to be bore out. This is of my 4th cylinder:

Oil outlet

heres a pic of the oil outlet from the motor to the oil filter, they massaged out all the edges making it easier for oil to flow.

After what seemed like years my car is finally up and running smoothly. G-Tranny with the ACTY clutch is finally not slipping. Now i just need to put 500 miles on the clutch so i can dyno it all!!! sheesh..

Sorry it's been taking so long. I'll hopefully have the #'s by the end of the month!

definitely feels more beefy. but i know it'll feel like a new beast once dynoed. i'm running pretty rich til then and don't want to risk blowing it. I'm just counting down the miles til dyno day. =) on target for the end of this month.
