But does it drop off more between 6500 and 7300 or between the 6500 and where ever you land after the shift? shifting at 7000 RPM will probably land you at an RPM with more power and more than make up what you lost between 6500 and 7000.

it starts losing after 6500 it drops just as quickly as it goes up.

UltrasonicKing · 03-08-2012, 10:25 AM

Do you have a tune?

MACE_ENG · 03-09-2012, 06:11 AM

Ok I have some bad news :(

We don't have a video clip of it running yet, but going by the owners words

Sounds like a f**king beast haha

Hopefully we should have more info tomorrow

The car idles well off the bat, even cold start wasn't an issue, all with the non cam tune which is good

What a HUGE relief this has been LOL! Hopefully there aren't any gremlins which crop up down the track, touch wood. The one which I was most worried about, piston to valve clearance should be OK.

You probably wouldn't want to run Ghost Cam on top of this though at the risk of bending valve, but fortunately you don't need to

Keep you guys posted

-"Dog house prevention tips"
-"how to come up with extra money(legally)"
-"how to explain to the wife/girlfriend you NEED that mod"
-"when all else fails,...Top dating sites

"
