Sorry, I'm hoping to get on the dyno this spring. Mild tune netted 276whp. Changed a few things since then. You will really like the spool, very linear, pulls like a V-8. I am on an AEM Infinity so tune wise your on your own. I did the ps delete, depowered rack. I am thinking about adapting the electric power steering from a Prius.

Do you happen to have a build thread? I can't seem to find it if you have one. Curious on build specs - stock motor? Piston+Rods?

TIA!

At this point it's an old thread. Due for an update this spring.

Are there any other build threads you could point to that have similar mounting of the ignition coils or is that your own take on mounting? Did you go with lower gauge wires to overcome impedance due to being longer? Looks sweet, first I’ve noticed one like it.

No, I tend to come out from under my rock once in a while with my own weirdo stuff (see "should I drill a hole in my engine block" thread). I doubt if the difference in wire length is measurable for our purposes.
