Wow, missed that one.

Got the new bumpsticks, now to get them installed.
I need to do a timing belt before May 3. Maybe have a timing belt and cam install get together?

Cams are going in tonight. :P I'm always willing to help when you are ready to replace the belt.

Ah memories...

God looking back that was hilarious when your 1G showed up on fire. :D

I thought it was a joke when you came around the corner and said "Hi guys my car is on fire." You had a big grin on your face, totally didn't believe you at first.

Good thing there wasn't much for damage.

The dyno days are usually the funniest events we have. Odd surprises, dissappointments, and war stories!

Schiedes, the car ran for much more than a day, remember I spun all those 11 second passes you have yet to get close to? ;)

It is all in good fun guys (the ribbing), it is why I am still around here. Maybe by the next event I'll have my 2wheel toy to dyno. I doubt that will come close to breaking triple digits.

2 wheels?

yeah i am glad it didn't do much damage just a big mess. Still dyno'd that day.
11 sec passes, easy stuff, apparantly you can touch 11s with a huge boost leak. :op

I'm a huge tool.

I rounded off the MIVEC cam gear bolt and had to run to the store to buy "bolt outs" impact sockets. They worked like a charm, a little dremel work on the rounded bolt and I'm back on the road!

Idle has that nice big cam sound, turbo seems to spool even quicker. I'll play with the car more tonight after the Wild game.

BTW, new MIVEC cam gear bolt is $3 the MIVEC cam gear is $370!
