I don't think they've posted any yet 9k, everyone is likely still recuperating from the weekend and hopefully we'll get some #'s tonight.

Offhand question; 9k did you pull your fuel filter sock off and take a look to see if the pre-mix was clogging anything?

i'm at work!!


i took over 400 pic's this past weekend so it'll probably take photobucket a while to upload all at once. I'm going to open a new photobucket w/a password for everybody to enjoy. I'll also start my own thread once everything is said n' done. The vids will probably take a lil' longer but def this week

i'll probably stroll home for lunch n' start the upload process too. - figured it'll probably save me an hour because of how slowwwwwwwwwwww photobucket can get when it's uploading full albums...

Watching the live cam was fun guys. Wish I could have been there in person for all of the shenanigans.

IMHO - the webcam only caught maybe 1/4 of the stuff that occured at dyno day - there was just so much stuff going on it was tough to catch everything. Outside of the tuning and the dynoing that was going on - there were folks outside seafoaming - people (myself especially) were walking into their 'SEXY ROOM' aka the room where they keep all their project stuff they had like 3 RB motors and 2 SR blocks being worked on - such awesome stuff - then there were people outside discussing product development n' stuff - lots and lots of great things going on all at once. So much fun for any enthusiast.

Rob: When I left the live cam, you were the highest topping at 210. Did anyone get higher?

The 210 was lies, Jedi said so, just like they teased us on the 1st day with higher numbers from the FI guys.

CRH got the highest from what I saw last night being just over 200 whp which was the last car they dyno'd before closing down.

9k: you didn't miss the thread, I haven't even looked at the dyno data yet, I'm freaking exhausted.
Got up at 5am on Saturday, didn't leave SR until 10:30pm
Got up at 6 am on Sunday and was there till 9:30 pm

Looooong weekend.
I'll have to go through the raw data, find everyone's high runs, graph them, find time to upload all of them, organize by hp, day, etc and then make a thread. It might happen today or tomorrow.

Rory: the high for the NA guys was CRH at 200. The weird thing is he was about 10 hp lower then last year and I was 11 hp lower then last year.
oh well, hp numbers aren't all that important anyways.

There were a few guys who flaked out (who shall remain nameless) but overall it was fun and everyone who DID show up got on the dyno at some point.

random question: anyone here use Google Chrome as their browser? I just started using it (cus I'm finally accepting the fact that IE sucks) but some of the hotkey / shortcuts I've grown to love in IE dont' work on this forum with chrome.

ie: when I want to post my reply I was used to hitting alt+S, that doesn't work.
hell, even ctrl+b for bold doesn't work.

what's up with that?


edit: @#$@#%#@%#@%2 !!!!!!!!! just tried to hit alt + s again to post that and it didn't work. this is going to take some getting used to

Well, that's good that everyone who was there got to dyno. You were saying your compression was low as I remembered. Is that true?

I use chrome on my lappy but I never used the shortcuts before so that wasn't an issue with me. I do find something with chrome won't do so well that I use FF for instead so I keep both browsers at my disposal when needed but chrome is the default.

I have heard of this "chrome" but don't know anything about it. What makes it so good? I currently use FF

lower then I would have liked but I'm not concerned. If he motor eventually loses too much compression I have the option of going back to stock and taking it to Mazda or calling up BHR and having a badass ported motor built by CRH himself.
gee, life is rough.

I'm just now about to look at all the video footage that Atilla took with my video camera. Should I be scared about what I'm about to watch?

on a side note: once again I failed at this whole "take lots of pictures" thing because I was too busy enjoying everything else but I saw enough cameras that I don't think that'll be an issue.

Atilla: sushi tonight? I'd love to meet up and grab your pics off your camera if that's cool with you.
