Warning! Boring tech post with no car/engine pics! Warning!
Made it out to the dyno earlier than I expected, thanks to all night driving to get the new block and head broken in. It's up over 100hp and gained a bit more than 65ft/lb the torque band is amazing here's the dyno print out, didn't make any passes with raised boost it's still at the same 1 bar it was running when I got it since I have no extra springs for the wastegate. The first one is when I got the car and the second is the 1.8L I put together,   You can see just how much the compression was raised another reason I'm not ready to start raising the boost, it'll need a piggyback unit or megasquirt something functional that won't cost thousands and need all new sensors for the engine. It all held together and ran well strapped to the dyno so I took it over to the test track after for a few test and tune passes. The rear shocks will need to be changed soon they aren't liking how much weight is being transferred on hard acceleration which means the front end should probably be lowered a little to keep good road contact with the engine in the back don't want it to start floating now that it can get up over 150mph, felt crap your pants scary at 170 and still gaining. The first one is the new data and the second picture is when I first got the car,
