13:1 is noted, would you believe to make the 1.6 get 10:1 compression that 9cc dome only ends up being way to make the 1.8/1G head do it?

Aaron thought you hated megasquirt? My 2g is running pretty good on it now. Bout to turn the boost up and see what 18-20psi will feel like on that car! (2g 420a pte 50trim bb). I will also be tearing into my evo this winter here very soon and doing the 2.4, 5 speed swap. I do really want you to be the one to give it a nice break in tune on e85 perhaps. Do you guys have an e85 station near your shop? I'm also still interested in getting my bike to you at some point when it warms up for a power commander dyno tune!
We will talk as it gets closer.

We do dislike megasquirt, and that truck is one of the reasons actually. It made 180whp at 11psi which I guess is good for a 22R. We have E85 at the shop and within 20 miles as well. From the research I have done and Luke has done, it looks like MS is all about what firmware you use. That would be the next problem is that most people dont seem to agree on exactly what is the best firmware.

meantime, engine came out tonight on the evo and it is will be disassembled tomorrow to take head to machine shop. Waiting game now on parts!

Good to hear you have e85 close by!Looks like I will be doing a full fuel system too while its out-
