Hmm, what timing are you running??? If I remember correct Rikki made his numbers by turning up the timing and running borderline lean...BUT he used race gas mix.

You running pump and its only 91 at that. I'd be very nervous running those a/f ratios....especially after going thru the nightmare of installing a new engine.

I'd be looking for something more like 12:1 a/f at the most to be safe in all conditions. And if you turn the boost any higher I'd drop in down into the mid 11's

still nice numbers though

just my .02

If the turbos go, I dont care, I've had a TO4E in my garage for like almost a year now waiting to go in, just been lazy to install it.





I don't see how you had that turbo kit for a year since you were crying about Slava not coming through with a kit. Let us say, about a year ago:

[b]Crashunit:

nah I didnt lose any money or anything, I actually did get something out of it, but the one big (cough...cough...Turbo..... cough...cough..) promise never came thru.... so Im not in a bad case like Ive heard of others being in, but I just hate being minipulated or cheated and lied to, since I keep all of my promises, and if I cant do something I wont do it... just sucks there's so many dishonest people.[\b]

Concrete details are here:

Only a fool would squeez Nawwws into his rotary engine. Didn't learn the first time. Only fools make the same mistake twice. I guess this makes you a fool and liar. Jim Carey style.

You would probably have gotten 344rwhp if it wasn't for the TypeR Air Freshner! Aren't you glad you had that bad boy in there?!

Good numbers dude! Show AND GO!

I dont see anything in your post that indicates if he had a turbo laying around or not. It is possible for people to have a turbo laying around but decide to get another one. I know people with tons of turbos laying around.

Either way, I think your post is uncalled for. Its really a mute point anyway and doesnt really matter.

Wow is that all you can come up with? Jesus christ you are lame. yeah Slava didnt come thru with the kit, so what? that doesnt mean I didnt have a turbo laying around just by itself. You want me to take a pic of my turbos for you just to please your little school girl additude? ask anyone whos been to my house and they'll show you I have tons of crap just laying around I havent installed. ( T3/4 at first, sold that now have a To4e) Nice try to be a pick tho poser. Hey, Jim I think we have another JoeD, can I ask you to take this one away as well?

extremely lean set up....engine won't last long and you'll lose hp as you add fuel to safely richen it to the 11.5 to 1 ratio. Also STD HP tends to be about 5 to 7 more than SAE hp on a dyno.

Also lean on the dyno often means being up to a point leaner on the street!

i made 333rwhp with a non ported motor at 13psi.. with 99 specs.. the ones without the abraidable seal...un tuned also.. but i was really.. really rich.

nice numbers.. no BS.. people just seem to like raising that flag because lack of experience.. too much forum surfing and not enough seat time.

Yeah thanks for the heed of warning guys ( Don't I usually have the best horror story with my car tho ), I know my car gets pretty lean at top end, but I usually run on a lower setting that gives me more fuel, however less boost. I will post another dyno sheet once it gets tuned.

Did no one else notice the correction factor of 1.09 on those runs? Nice way to gain 10% or 30 rwhp... Maybe that was Rikki's "special sauce"?

What kind of dyno is that? You didnt let those guys tune your car did you??? That is a V8 shop man, they are tuning your car exactly like youd want to tune a high compression LS1. You need to fix that **** man, you are LEAN for a rotary, dont let V8 shops tune your car. They dont know it requires different a/f's to stay alive

And, yea I'd ask them whats up with the CF 1.09 (correction factor) and also why thier dyno is showing that it was 115F in that room.

They didnt tune it, I Just went in to do 3 runs and that was it. On a dyno Jet, no tricks or anything. The shop is located in Reseda California, "The Valley", and it was pretty ******* hot already that day, and they only had 1 fan going on for me when I did my runs, and it was 115-114f in that room which was why the CF was a at 1.09. There was another forum member there with me when I did that run as well, and Im sure he can tell you we had to stand outside when they did my runs.

I was boosting more stable at 12 lbs on setting 3 which was suppose to get me 14 lbs of boost, but since I wasnt tuned it only allowed me to run alittle bit more richer. You can check at the bottom of the notes it says 12#. I had 3 runs and tried setting 2 and 3 on the PMS and the only diffrence was 2 gave me more power, but ran leaner, and 3 gave me more fuel, but less power.

So like whats the criteria for getting a legit dyno run on the RX-7 forum now aday? you want Standard or SAE? Mustang Dyno or Jet Dyno? Corrected or Uncorrected? Jezz I feel like Im being castrated for not meeting everyone's criteria. Just thought Id share my dyno sheet.

I know there are ways of cheating on the dyno to get higher #'s, but I assure you I didnt. But if you think I did, then fine. Picky picky picky
