Hey Ron

Congrats on getting the engine fired up, really sounds healthy. I heard you mention how quickly it revs up, these motors are sick. First thing I noticed when I fired mine. Must be all the light weight Ti inside. So I just re did the complete fuel system, Fast102r,nw102,ID850s, carls zl1 pump, holy crap it now revs like it has ITB's on it. Seat dyno really improved power under the curve.
Im psyched for you, can't wait to hear more.- Rich

The sound of that engine is music to my ears. Sounds mean and like it's ready to tear up the auto-x.

Funny you mention that Rich. I was talking with QMP on Friday about the future dyno day and they said they got 20 hp in back-to-back with the Fast 102 and NW. I was trying my best to defend the ported factory stuff.

I guess I'll save that for part II. Thx for jumping in Brother

Reminds me of Run to the Alamo..... a shop with two Mustangs unloads the cars off the trailer -- one is brand spankin' new build... a "helper" is tossed the keys and told to go down the street to fill it with gas.... The street is wet... and heavily crowned... The station is 4 blocks away. The car is upside-down in the ditch.
