Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

What the heck is this?



I love it.

I'm really glad you took the route most people don't do. I bet on a good day that thing would run down a stock or stock-ish GTP. If I ever built a race transmission for a N/A car I'd put 3.69's in it too...that would really help ya stay in your powerband...as for the car bouncing off the limiter...might ask Paul about that...just a simple tweak in the tune most likely.

you dont break in motors by babying them anyway, you break them in by beating the crap out of it. ask anyone that has an actual race car with a built motor how they broke it in. i bet they say they took it out and went WOT with it.

1. So are you suggesting his 3800 daily driver is a "race motor"? Just please...

2. Break-in requirements are everybodys own opinion, but if you break-in a typical engine by going WOT don't expect optimum engine life.


Even some race engines benefit greatly from break-in. We used to provide a careful break-in for our two & four stroke motorcross engines. If you didn't you could cut engine life down by a fair margin. Yes, not cars, but those engines are what I consider "race". A stock specific output of 200HP/Litre....naturally aspirated and on 92 octane, of course.
 


you need to seat the rings well by beating on it. if it doesnt break the first run then it's good to go.
