At idle, totally normal!

it's open all the time, Mine had ingested water, over heated and blew:/ I think the vent hole is a dumb design. Completely forgot about that thing. I always thought they was a "check" ball in there. But it's open 100% of time.

BTW that look a lot better

I agree, I blew enough oil out of my vent plug at my last track day to run low and cook a bearing in the Supercharger. Bad design, but working on a solution to that plug.

Nice to see!

We are waiting for the tuner to get free to look at the log but it looks like we are closer. On the same flash as last time the car made 7psi and the most torque it has ever made.

One of these days I am going to drive to Ft Myers just to buy you a beer.

Better yet, meet me in Sebring!

JWillis72 · 01-08-2016, 02:05 PM

The car is loud.

Only to 6,500, we have more to go but didn't like the AFRs being over 13.

At least it's an encouraging sign that the engine is getting more air than the tune was expecting!

JWillis72 · 01-08-2016, 04:46 PM

Tuner just looked at the log and says it looks way better. He is sending a new flash but this probably will be slow, he has cars he's working on at his shop. He is also coming down in two weeks so if we can get it working we can do so fine tuning while he is here.

Is the tuner Seb?

JWillis72 · 01-08-2016, 04:57 PM

No, it's still the guy that started on it. We talked to Seb and would love him to tune the car but the car seem to have so many other problems we stayed with the original tuner. While I was very frustrated with his attitude early on he hasn't quit on us through this mess so I can't quit on him.
