oldman: keeps the Germans away. :-)
Crossed 1000 miles with a data log of near 6900 rpm and 9.5 psi. Pulls quite nicely in third! Still tuning thanks to Jannetty.

We're getting there! Flywheel has now been replaced and back on the ground...waiting for the salt to disappear. Then back to the dyno!

2200 miles on the combination. Will install new plugs prior to Friday's dyno visit.
 [url]If all goes well, Nurburgring opens on 16 Mar and we have a track day reserved at SPA on 25 Mar (hope for no snow in Belgium!)

Plugs installed...driver's side takes 20 mins...passenger side takes 2 hours...thanks to dropping the plug socket - Ack!
 Bit of oil on #7 threads...otherwise looks a ok. Also heard a phantom tap on odd side of the engine...so pulled the valve cover and rockers for a look see:  Nothing out of the ordinary - all Ti lash caps present, no broken springs, rocker arm tips are like new, etc. Will gather the kit for tomorrow's visit to the heart breaker. Temps are warmer than before (55 degrees) otherwise a constant.

Gave it a wash (cleaner cars are faster!) and dropped by the engine shop that assisted us in this adventure - ABD Racing:
 He was genuinely happy we showed him the final product...always wonder how many projects are completed when they reach a 'machine shop' state. I try to pay it forward a bit for the next guy...not many folks will open up their knowledge and behind the desk to show a 15-17 year old how things work - very nice German.

Dyno visit was successful! The stars aligned, dyno was operational (mostly) and the tuner (Mr Ted Jannetty) was online to tweak after each run.
Strapped down and prepped:  We did 6 runs and 4 'flashes' of the ECU...gaining just shy of 50 CHP for a grand total of 700 crank horsepower. Dyno sheet between untuned WOT and yesterday's best run:  Pleased with the output. The dyno was acting up with a cooling fan failure and anomalies appearing in the curves. Ted was confident the engine was not to blame and enough runs were made to ensure a smooth power curve. The torque number is inaccurate due to the spike. I have no idea what 966 NM is anyway...! I will say on the way home-4th gear it really pulls nicely to the 7000 rpm limiter (150 mph)... May be tested on the Nurburgring tomorrow (opening weekend for the season!).
