Dude you have no idea! Its been there since late August. They figured out my cam timing was waaayy off so they fixed that and man does she have POWER. Now Derrick's wife just had a baby so I need to wait for him to come back to work before they can schedule dyno time again. PPPOOOWWWEEERRR!!! ZOoooooooom PSHHHHH ZOOOMMMMMM PSHHHHHH!!Steeb wrote:boooo!!! jk so many years of work put into your car, im just getting anxious to see what kind of monster your car has become.![]()
having a bottle neck in your piping is like how the fia regulates power output with restrictors. unless its tiny it should be ok with a good tuner.

I think they were the rings that came with the weisco pistons. No pinging that I am aware of. They are going to talk about my car tomorrow and call me friday to see whats gonna happen. I think they are going to say to come get by car and they will fix it next month. I dont think I want it back til its fixed...

Hey Jarid,
I hope you are upset about the low compression issue and not about the dyno numbers since 270whp from a 1600 B6 motor is damn impressive.
I personally had you in the 260whp to 270whp range based on your mods since I find that most turbo 1600 Miatas with similar work tend to dyno in the 240-260whp range.
How much boost were you running when you got this figure?
Hopefully you get the problem sorted out quickly.

Talked to Corksport today. They will get to it when they can. Estimated mid December before I get it back.. I have no choice since it is under warranty.
