Default EXPO8 maintenance

I have a few things to do for EXPO8. Here is the start.

Dyno Day

Tuner: Tony Palo at T1 Race Development (Dallas, TX)

Dyno'ed was 195whp. The end result was a smoother powerband. I wanted to trim off top end for mid range Torque was not measured due to a malfunctioned magnet. It is guestimated to be around 135-140tq

Nice Mike, looks like a nice powerband all the way up, keep the 17s for the love of god, please. You're not getting THAT old, it's all in your head.

Kavehman, thanks for reminding me, a good detail is due before Expo8. I just pulled the car out of the garage. Last time I drove it was https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2115231

John, the motor has a 100% stock cylinder head with the exception of Golden Eagle cam gears which are set at 0 degrees.

The ITR block has LS crank, LS rods, 81.25 USDM ITR pistons, and a shortened deck height of 0.007. Stock airbox as you can see. JDM 4-1 to a Apexi N1. Neptune software.

Mike, didn't your F/S listing state that ABS was removed? Just curious, it only determine whether or not I have a good memory...

Noice HP, can you give us a plot with torque too? I may have to look these guys up and see if they can tune my EVO. I thinks I can squeeze a few more HP out and smooth up the torque curve. Can you give me a link or phone for these guys?

The rollcage is a 6pt Autopower boltin. It was RHD but converted to LHD. ABS is disconnected but not removed. It will be removed in about a week. Free rides

Torque was not measured due to a magnetic probe being malfunctioned. I really just wanted everything worked out regardless of the numbers. Fortunately, the engine was nice enough to make a brag worthy number.

T1 does not have an AWD dyno.

Car used to be turbo.

That's pretty good man. I guess the numbers make up for having to have ls parts on your R.

if you've got the hp figures then you've got the torque figures also. Just takes a little calculation

Looks good Mike. Can't wait to play on track again.
