What is the top secret from yesterday's learnings? Is it cleared for public release yet or still classified?

I reckon they are stuffed. Big G is going to test them. Its one of the first things I noticed when we dynoed it in the first place. And the fact at that point onward its unresponsive to tuning or mods. The engine is making a lot less power than he claimed it made when it was first built.TdracerTd wrote:What are the valve springs like?
Ideally I want to see them under s stroboscope to see if they float. I'm fairly certain the weird noises I hear on the knock ears is them floating and it happens around that rpm , also corresponds to where the knock counts goes nuts but its not knock.

still classified for now from public as some of the competitors have found to have been looking on this thread to gain advantage.Dylan wrote:What is the top secret from yesterday's learnings? Is it cleared for public release yet or still classified?

Damn, yeah that is the issue with a public forum, everybody gets to see what you are doing including your competitors ( and officialdom)......
Edit, maybe we need to set up a section only open to registered (and vetted) members......

Re: How to loose 200kgs?....
you can let that one out vlad
agree that the valve spring are past their use by, starting to doubt the original tuners power figures (numbers fudged?)
but after today, its now made the most power and torque it has yet on my dyno, in one spot 50nm more
thanks all for your input, and thanks most of all to captain OCD - Vlad
better tell them the combos we tried yesterday vlad...
