^lol.

At bir on a wed night I almost went into the wall a bunch of times this was with 210hp and toyo T1Rs.

I usually cut 1.7s and 1.6 is my best, on all seasons, 1.6 was on some craigslist all season for $100 for 4, Never ran a serious tire or trans.

Yup. Then we can figure out how we want to break it in prior to tuning. At this point I'll be excited just to have it idle!

I had it running for a bit today, then changed the oil/filter, and then drove it around a little doing some vacuum coast down pulls to try to help seat the rings. No leaks or anything weird so far. I would like to run it for a few miles on the dyno doing some coast down high vacuum pulls to further seat the rings in.

Shane sent me a short video. He mentioned that it doesn't lope very much.

Dunno. This email was at 9pm saying my car was currently on the dyno for some break-in. Sounds like he's working some crazy hours.

Typical shane. Everyone fuk's off and leaves him alone after hours, that's when he gets the real biz done ;)

Says he has 28 cars at the shop and can barely close the doors at night. In light of that I'm going to pick up my car and run it with the prior tune for a couple weeks (or whenever I can work into his regular tuning schedule). He said he added 9% to fix the fuel trims so there's a little more airflow going on with this setup. :D

Breaking it in can't hurt and after two months without an Evo, I think I have enough patience to wait a few weeks for 400whp. This'll give me time to finish up the cosmetic stuff that I have on the to-do list, as well as gauges. Need to make an appt with Jeff for a corner balance/align as well.
