Still working thru a few details to finalize the engine swap but I made it to the dyno today and it lived.

Pretty happy with the power. It made 475/435 with a very flat torque curve. Corey (tuner) is a more conservative tuner to make the car last rather than peak out. He wants me to add an exhaust crossover. He thinks I'll gain 20-30 ftlbs in the mid range by doing so. Otherwise he says the combo's great with nothing else needed.

I remember that post. I wonder where optimum is. Reality is that with the TA I don't have much of a choice where it will go

Nice and great to see it on the road.... so when's your first track day?

But I must say.... we really would have appreciated a dyno video.

Think the next track day isn't until Feb/March but I need to check it out. I want to put some miles on it and get the bugs worked out. The PS pump pressure/volume isn't working with my steering box right now and leaks, there is a wiring issue with my fan relays, I'm waiting on a correctly machined Earls oil thermosat and I have a small leak somewhere in my brakes..

Beyond that I'm also decided to drink the Sutton Kool-aid... Once I move into my new place I'm going to try to get him all my measurements so he can help me with the overall suspension tune including adding a rear swap bar I hope.


I wanted a video too but missed the chance. He was working thru the drivability most of the time then would suddenly do a pull. Here is a really video of it running on the dyno. Given this quality you should be glad I don't have a full video
