"Cobo's Customs, could you please explain to me why timing advance is producing higher EGTs than "less" timing advance"
This is what i was also wondering an asking above

and i can still be a doosh ; )

Ill say a few more things. 1, you cant compare 420a to srt.. its not a 1:1 lets not get into piston desing of thisr loc comp vs the piston desing of a 420a Low comp..theres alot to be said there, but its deff not a 1:1 comparison. Those motors were manufacutred to have more Tq, it would take a redesing of th 420a to put it in that class b.c of where the quench areas are etc.

2. most of us dont waste our money with those things like MS and forged interanls. Most of us are building for overhead/scaleability. 99eclipse will turn his stuff up, its not a matter of being afraid etc, its a matter of upgrade path. His clutch , lack of LSD etc are why he isnt turnign it up, yet. Yes theres a cheap way to do it, and a not so cheap way.. Your customers may be happy with what they have, and thats great, but theres little to no scalability in it. they really cant "safely" do much more. Again, some people have gotten away with adding more PSi, I know a few have ran 12 PSI on stock block for a while, but in the end.. it does go boom. If they did want to go more, then they would need all the Forged goodies etc.. Now your looking at more labor / machining etc costs. good for you b.c youll make money, but sucky for them since its pretty much starting over..

I know most if not all of us catch the boost bug. When 99 eclipse said he wanted turbo, thats was great, i helpd guid him on what he should do, to ensure his money was spent efficently, not just for the immdiate need of feeling boost, but down the road when he wanted to turn it up, b.c i knew he would. Sure he is built on 5 psi. is that a wast of a built bottom, sure.. IF he were to stay there. but he isnt, hes goign to build the trans to hold and put down the power that more PSI will give.

Videos are nice, and yes dyno sheets can be faked. But, you said you had the "have dyno papers to prove the numbers", thats all we wanted to see. I prefer both , i love vids, i also like dyno sheets.

Cheap - Fast - Reilaible. Pick 2.. are there some that get away with all 3? Sure.. but few and far between.. and for how long. perhaps i should put another variable in there? TBB (Time before boom), but that falls under reliability. I think its a pretty proven formula ; )
 
wow your a real sweatheart. Watch the freaking videos and see how my cars perform with what little has been done. I wish you could pull up next to anything I drive! There is a YouTube link up there in this thread that takes you right to my Channel! Actually here is the link again MrPhukyew - YouTube im so sick of haters that only wanted 250hp and still wasted their 3000 dollars on lower comp on forged pistons and megasquirt and forged rods just to have a modest tune and get 210hp at 5 psi and never improve. I would be mad too but I wouldn't take it out on the guy that makes a living off doing it for less than half the price and has no unhappy customers. I have not been rude to anybody and im the only guy here that provides video proof of how my cars perform. Anybody can post up a dyno/time slip and it may even be their friends paper or one they downloaded from google images. its no wonder friends told me to stay off the forums, now I know it's because everybodies feelings get hurt too easy and then they lash out like children for the simple sharing of multi time proven money saving techniques. I'm sure alot of people on here dont agree with me but at least they are willing to debate without insult


i could easily turn up the boost, but im not gonna be stupid an do it an stock clutch an trans.. y wont i? maybe cus i actually know what im doing, an id love to run you on the streets, only thing id have to do is hook up the boost controller and youd never be able to hang, but im out have a good time on here lying about your numbers, :ohdamn:
