Latest Dyno Chart 282.55 SAE HP AT 10,500 RPMS and only 850 Regulated NOS Pressure. The Motor Only number was 163 so it was making about 120 NOS HP. The INJECTORS were the Problem that stopped the bike from running correctly after the NOS Explosion on the Dyno Last month!

If I could put a Dollar Value on this Board, I would have already retired! I have never met a better group of people anywhere PERIOD. When I have the time I am going to list "EVERYTHING" that caused a problem in the last 2 years!

NO, On Motor, I am only producing 160 to 170 HP SO no way I would need more and after 2 years of dealing with this I am not about to change anything that I now have working!
Short story is in the last few years I do not think I have spent a full Month on the Bike. I had all of the time spent in court and my Mom's death and her estate and then Peggy's mom all took a lot of time

Vince, what is your afr at the top of the pull? Remember the bike will go slightly lean off of the dyno and down track Im sure yourself and tuner are aware of this but it can be as much as a point difference depending on conditions. Chris

Me TOO!!
And here I thought I have fixed one problem "ME"!! Guess not! I just Wanted to FLY! I sure did for a while and it was FUN! On the DYno, the A/F was about 13.5 (The Lean Spike) which was the lowest I have ever seen and then for the rest of the run about 10.5 to 11 to 1 in that range. I felt that the lean spike could go to 15 to 1 then down to 11 to 11.5 and it would be a great run.
I just did not adjust for the Idiot operating EVERYTHING and throw out the adjustments by upping the NOS Control Pressure and having no mind to turn up the Fuel Pressure. Easy to know what I did wrong and with the cost of doing this I am sure the temptation to ever do this again will be gone!

Vince............We've all been guilty of the same thing.. I've blown up more turbo motors than I care to remember.. The temptation to adjust that little screw just a little more never goes away.. THe only way I can keep from doing that is stay away from turbo motors.. It's like being a member of AA... I'm recovering all the time and it will only take 1 drink for me to fall off the wagon..
You're NOT an idiot Vince>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>You're just sick that's all

Gunner, The Idiot part is KNOWING Better and having no control over your own body parts. BY now, you would think that I could have done more to control me?? I am hoping that one day I can start to Act my age and slow down to at least where I can keep out of trouble :

Vince...........Sir......You're a sick man We are sick men NOT a bad kind of sickness just a costly kind I'm saying this in the most respectful tone I have.. I respect you Vince in a lot of ways..

Hopefully you can learn that the "Sickness" Is Life long and should be avoided at all cost!WHen I was 30 I thought I would be "Normal" (Like a regular Grown up) when I was in my 40's the same in my 40's when I reached my 50's in my 50's I KNEW I would slow down and act like Normal people and now I am starting my 64th year of life as Impatient as ever Driving like a Bat out of Hell0 catching my breath at the stop lights and trying to remember to breath while driving or Riding I hope that when I reach 70!! That MAYBE I will have gained patience and tolorance
I have to because 80 is just too old to be how I am!!

Funny you mention breathing Vince...Back in my Drag racing days I noticed one weekend that I never breath from the time I let the clutch out till the time I dropped anchor... Funny little quirks of life..
posted November 03, 2006 05:37 PM
You know I understand that part! You just do not have TIME to Breath and everything else. Shane found out that counting the gears and watching the tack took 100% Of his mental efforts! Let alone watch where you are going!

I think your muscles just tighten up too much to breath... And I agree it does take your attention away slightly.. ALL I really know for sure is I tighten up and don't do it.
