The finger on mine points straight up.
Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here
Thank you for being a part of our community!
Yes John, toot your own horn about how you're right in your own small mind and some Nordic guy proves you right.
Nobody gives a damn about your cranky old opinions or desire to be a pain in the ass. In reality, this is turbobricks, not naturally-aspirated (and barely usable power band) bricks.
Moderators, my apologies for opening up this pile up. I'll return to my prior state.
: he says in reference to one of the board members who has realistically some of THE most tangible experience levels in this community, while saying it TO a board member who has a fair amount himself.I stck around and listen to people who have tangible experiences and who aren?t complete jack off?s and jerks.
Hey guys whats going on
Could be that the header and cam are well matched and it's like flipping a switch. I want to see it run with the factory exhaust back on it.
I guess the factory intakes aren't soooo bad...
I'd hold off on that until a decent intake manifold goes in.
He did say he tried another setting but I don?t know if ignition was the wrong direction or just not right. Timos Motor dynoed this cam at 213hp with Lh2.4, and I?m not sure what intake it used but it was with larger valves.It may be related to the fact that he's using forum lore to time the cam rather than going with a mm lift at TDC spec.
171whp is indeed fair, but the B230 intake manifold is definitely not good. This thing should wake up nicely with a different intake manifold and some more camshaft timing tweaking.Allow me to rephrase:
Perhaps factory intake manifolds perform better than the internet speculates, with no scientific research.
Not saying you can't do better, but 171 at the wheel is pretty fair.

Not really. Some of us test these things, some do these things. It has been discussed ad-nauseum on the swedish forums, and their findings and results back up other independent tests. It is a choke point. is it THE choke point? opinions vary. Are we talking NA? then yes, and if dyno test dude would post a datalog of one of the pulls I have a feeling things could be learned.
