Dyno time

Dyno Dave working his magic

With half an hour of run in time, dave starts with 20 pounds of boost and some more timing
and the turbo coming in to its sweet spot we start seeing 580 rwhp

Just doing a quick comp test

 

 

 

Ready to hit the dyno and some testing before the Japanese Nationals 22 september

After super lap 2011 we pulled the engine down for inspection and sent the gearbox away for servicing after the huge drive shaft problems at superlap costing us valuable lap times.

With work commitments over the last year Nick from Rotorhood Industries on the Gold coast

offered to assemble the engine and help get the car ready for the QLD Nationals.The engine

has run for 20mins so time for a comp test
