hahahahahaha nice video.

it was awesome having you guys down. glad the car is running well. with HALF of the ignition timing than your old map i think it should hold together for you a little bit better.


sorry the dyno was lying to us on the numbers, atleast the track numbers showed you guys i wasnt full of crap!


i think we should all hang our heads in shame of that sweet intercooler install. hell....i guess we cant give ourselves too much crap for working with what was available at the time! best of all, it worked!!


hope to catch back up soon at some of the races

We had an awesome time this past weekend! You guys are welcome whenever you want. And Bill, I am taking you up on that $20 dollar offer.

I don't know if Adam gets on Honda-tech, but make sure he keeps in touch with us as he hits the track, and makes changes, etc.

You canadians are the ****, ey!

Oh yeah... nice video, and you;re welcome for the butt ****

thanks for the hospitality guys we had a great time. The car finally feels right, and I think that my goal of a 9s pass might just happen after a frustrating year last season.
Hope to see you guys later on this summer
to Tempest Racing

Joe never got accurate power reading from the dyno, we have had issues with the dyno ever since a car joe was tuning's oil filter came off and got oil all over the rollers, the pickup etc. I know Joe looked it up and said it was around 400hp core, so I would say that efficiency was thrown out of the door even at wastegate pressure.

The car went 148mph at the track that night with plenty boost left in it, he wanted to keep the power down to learn the car, and to keep the trans alive. We are glad you are happy Adam, and I look forward to seeing you, bill, chris and tyler at some US events here soon!!!!

yea unfortunatly we didnt get any real numbers. when we put the new intercooler on the car, i added a good amount of fuel to it based off of what i thought it would do.....and it spun the tires much harder and kept a very similar afr......so it def. made more power, how much is hard to tell. an intercooler upgrade should be in the works.

once adam gets the car to go straight, and we throw some boost at it.....its an easy 9 second 150mph + car. hell....on the FIRST pass it had a better 60 foot than my car has ever had LOL
