bigric09 has a really nice one. if your passing through this way i'm sure he wouldn't mind helping you out if he has the time. usually hes playing golf in the morning. just send him a pm.

nope... about 8 of us or so.. most guys around raleigh are older and do not know of these forums... i haev seen alot of older men driving evos around raleigh. Myself, my roomys sti, our other friends evo, and 1 more of our friends from cary are about the only ones.

i'm glad you told me your good at it though because now i know who to take it to

Im not good at that either, but ill give it a shot

I am good with carburators and mechanical advanced distributors. So if any one of you "de-mods" ill hook you up

ok, thats enough...sorry

bigric09 · Jul 8, 2007, 04:46 PM

lol, well maybe you can give matt a hand with tuning carburated bikes then if the experience carries over that way. You are definitely good at logistics and having a spare parts warehouse at your disposal. Not to shabby with the ems either

freshsrt-4 · Jul 8, 2007, 05:06 PM

yeah, if your good at carburated bikes/cars then i could definately learn something from you. i have an idea what to mess with but don't do it because i'm not to sure exactly what certain needles do on the carburator. i haven't really found the need to do it though because everything is turning into fuel injection anyway. i'd be nice to learn for the older harley's.....

LOL....I'll help anyone. See you guys on the 10th....peace

i was just about to ask if you were back yet... have a safe trip. It definitely would be helpful for matt and the tuning of the harleys and what not....

Matt, what you got going on this week ? i've got to do some logging a little later, and i want to see what your laptop says compared to mine

not to much. we could prolly log both of ours this week when my new MBC gets here and my tranny fluid is changed out. like wednesday-friday sometime. saturday i think i'm going to rockingham to dial in the tune a lil more on the guys bike i did friday. hes got some money and wants to pay me to get it even better for the 22nd when he takes it to piedmont dragway for a bikefest. wants to get it around 9.2-9.4 in the 1/4. so we might go down there to the track to tune/run it from 7-11pm. should be fun......

btw, evoscan says i got 343 hp and 312 ft/lbs torque with the car pulling timing 5-7k

don't know how accurate that is but thats what it says. can't wait to get that other wga and mbc on there so i can start street tuning the SOB........

krazirob · Jul 8, 2007, 10:58 PM

Thats the only thing I dont like about the flash. Is there any way you can make it stop. Does it pull because of knock, over boost, both?
