? where is the dyno sheet yo!

 

xs is working on it.

Im sure they are doing all they can to get it done. They had to wait on the wiring harness and relocate the battery to the drivers side rear.

I ran the power cable to my battery(trunk) thru the passnenger side firewall...thru the rubber plug. XS told Louis that running the power too cluse to the pfc is not the way they prefer to do things. They have a better way of running the power thru the back to the battery than I had done.

Louis said the earliest would be tomorrow...though I imagine the latest will be friday.

Id love to get the results first thing tomorrow afternoon. but i dont expect it. tuning takes time and patience.

PS..today i realized how easy we all have things over here in comparison to those who are fighting for us in iraq. I knew it previously..but it really sank in this afternoon. I hope this all ends soon.

 

Man, make them take pictures too!

Any results yet?

 

it was on the dyno today...final tuning happens monday and i should have the sheets then.

my oil metering pump needed to be replaced and it looks like monday is GO time.




Im so anxious its driving me crazy...but Im not rushing them at all...it will get done right if i give them time to do it.

I'm not trying to flame, but jesus, how come this thread started before there was a dyno?

Show me the dyno!

Damn all these things suddenly need to be replaced and it doesn't phase you one bit...you must be rolling in the dough, bro. First your wiring harness, now your OMP. Aren't they about a grand for each if I'm not mistaken? Not counting labor...

 

Wiring harness costs $700 I think - not sure about OMP - Jason must make money because he's probably spent more than I have on mods and he's not gone single yet

Give him a break, I was just as excited when I "heard" results but didn't have a dyno yet. I'm sure his numbers will be very impressive....

 

well i put the thread up the day it went on the dyno. I was supposed to have numbers already. I thought Id let some of you know..who wanted to know when it was being done.

no more whining..hahaha...im the one thats jonezing here.

rather than replace with a new wiring harness we repaired it to keep costs down. the damage was minor so it was just easier to repair.

the omp...dont ask.

I was supposed to have the results already..simple as that...but like i said...if xs needs a few days then Im not going to call and bother them.

They did one full pull on friday and final tuning is monday supposedly.

and yes...i do have a good job. want to see what i do check this...

i thought those looked familiar then i looked at the bottom for copyrights. very nice!

 

Is there a reason to replace the oil metering pump instead of just running premix?

 

YES. Running pre-mix requires your injectors to inject oil in the engine at some indeterminate rate. Your oil metering pump injects a fixed rate vs rpm every time. I would never trust to pre-mixing as my sole source of apex seal lubrication.....(strapping on the flame suit for the Haltech guys). BTW, does no one think it's funny that the Haltech was designed to manage rotary engines but can't run the OMP?

Jason, I had my OMP replaced under (aftermarket) warranty last year. I know how much that stung (try about $1400 in PARTS for those who don't know...).

 

i run premix. premix actually gives you less wear on your rotor housings because it offers more lubrication

 

well guys i got a call from RRR....the car is having fuel issues and thus possible detonation at 17+ lbs.

they did a full pull at 17lbs and it put down 380rwhp....i will find out exact fuel info tomorrow and why its not performing.

i am to call them in the morning to find out what the fuel problems are and what needs to be done to fix the situation so that i can get a good dyno run.

i wish i had more info...and that i was out in LA so i could go down and get the sheets to analyze.

I will post them as soon as i can.

Jason, I am sorry if this is late, but if you need an OMP, I've got a spare in Huntington Beach that I could deliver to XS pretty easily. I'm not expecting to get anything near the list price, but PM me if you want to work something out.

: You imitate Frazetta?

Yo! Icewind Dale!

 

Ok...this is a bit off topic, but I like the Ice Wind Dale portraits much better than Baldurs Gate stuff. You do some awesome work Jason! CJ

 

hahahha...thanks guys....i appreciate that. icewind dale was a lot of fun to work on.

frazetta...i like him a lot...definitely an influence...his stuff kicks ***



j

ps...max..thanks...the omp is in there...i got one from rrr for a fair price. i appreciate the offer though...for sure.

 

PVerdieck: frazetta isnt my only influence...check this guy out...dore' kicks *** too. he was a french illustrator from the 1800s...married the most popular actress in the world and could paint all this stuff out of his head...a brilliant guy. I wish i had the talent he did.

this guy...he is the top of my field for environments....if you guys want to see some cool *****...check him out.

www.goodbrush.com click on projects or mattes or concepts and dig around. the guy paints NON stop. amazing.

anyhow..i wont bug ya all til i get the sheets...enjoy the art.

Jason,
I keep checking to see if you have dynoed after I see "artguy" latest post... Maybe soon? LOL

 

Artguy! dyno sheet? Soon?

-joe

 

Jason, i've checked out your work before (i'm an Art Director in Washington)... VERY nice.

Just Curious: How was it determined that your OMP wasn't functioning or needed replacing?? I'm worried about mine for no rational reason. Is there a way to check it?

 

If you use the correct types of premix that are designed to mix with the fuel then you should be fine. As you go up and down thru the rpms and boost levels you use more and less fuel which means your getting more and less oil based on the fuel inj duty cycle just like you do with the omp.

The only real reason I can find for sticking with the omp is because running pre mix over a period of time adds up to be a lot of money and its just something else to keep up with.

I do however premix only and so far like it

STEPHEN

 

True. My only concern is you don't really have any way of knowing whether or not you are adequately lubricating the seals or not. It obviously works as you and many others only run pre-mix and you guys aren't popping motors right and left.

But as you point out, it's one more thing to worry about -- I've already got enough of those with this car....

 

lol, nevermind the single, he's prolly spent more money than some guys w/ 3-rotor conversions.
