This tear down was reasonable. The head needed work and I was tired of being embarassed at the state of things that lie under the hood. I changed my mind one something though, I'm going to order -4 hoses and fittings for the turbo to use the bulkhead thingy. This is a safety issue.

I'm really starting to get the Megasquirt licked. I finally understand the program after like 5 configuration errors lol. I'll be making a few trips up there for the car shows, but feel free to holler at me anytime. I put my phone number in your PM box 
The VE analyze along with the LC1 has made tuning so much easier. The old 1.6 runs like a scalded dog compared to day the day I brought it home. It's still naturally aspirated though.

Ok, remember that thread about decresing VE above 6500 rpm?
Here is this log:
[/QUOTE]
and the MSQ that goes with it:
Maybe the increased PW on the previous tune was a product of either FPR float or this is a product of the new plunum porting.
Here's a different pull, with the cursor on the big numbers:

Soooooooooo I just realized that my LC-1 reset to default numbers and I have to tune the car again. The good news is that I've been running my scary spark table at 12.1-12.6:1 AFR and no detonation, lol.
The LM-Programmer is a miserable utility. Sometimes it saves, sometimes it disregards the change, needs a powercycle to update, can't update on the fly...I might be able to code better than that.

Stories like that make me love my Uego even more. I barely paid attention when I wired it in and it's worked flawlessly since installation. I'm sure it has it's drawbacks, but I haven't found them yet.
