Funny; Growing up on a farm I HATE dirty garages. And I'm fairly intolerant of s***, although my corolla daily would count I suppose, but you can still practically eat out of the engine bay. As soon as I quit having to wrench on things in the dirt I swore I'd never do it again. So if the car's dirty, it drags s*** into my garage. I am grumpy. pressure washer comes out. Rinse repeat. :chuckle:

412hp @ 18psi on 93 octane. I'm very happy with the broad powerband from 3500 to peak around 6500. Different plots are adding timing in around 3500RPM. Didn't really care for it much so timing table and VE table are basically sorted for pump gas.

If I want to push it to 500 or beyond I'm going to need to source some E85, but I have the fuel system to support. Content for now. It's so smooth throughout the powerband.

Thanks! Just in time for the weather to get crappy this week. Weather warms up and I'll be under the car with that pressure washer taking inventory of where I want to start on suspension.

Ball joints clicking up front. Might as well pull it and redo everything. Bushings, bearings, beers type of weekend.
