Yes, they are both dynojets, which pretty much read the same no matter where you are, when setup properly. The only change would be environmental factors, but I think they even have a way to see through that.

Our cam special is over but we have one set on the shelf that I had though were VIIIs. Call monday and order them from Myles or setup an appointment and we can get them installed and this week before the dyno day.

So, i took a stab at removing the undertray on my X today. This is the first time I've gotten under there. I ended up not taking it off and decided to ask for advice instead.

In the manual there is no description of which bolts need to be removed to get the entire thing off. I wasn't sure if i needed to unclip EVERYTHING or just the perimeter. Does anyone have a screenshot showing what needs to come off for the dyno day? I just don't want to screw anything up, not being mechanically inclined and all.

The dyno day instructions say i must get this thing off, and I don't want to be the guy who doesn't do it, but I don't want to do a dummy move and take something off that doesn't need to come off.

Thanks!

So... my new ACT clutch is being installed this week. Trying to figure out if I can put enough miles on it before dyno day. What is the minimum I could aim for?

I read that its about 500 miles of slow shifting and gentle wear. City driving was supposed to be better than a long highway drive as far as break-in.

At least, thats what I remember.

Edit:

Do ACT clutches require a break in period? For organic street discs "00 and SS" we recommend breaking in the clutch for 200-300 miles with mild engagement such as stop and go city driving prior to racing or spirited driving. ACT race discs usually only require a few hard slips to lap in the surfaces prior to normal driving or racing. Do not overheat the clutch during the break in period.

They do as far as launching. As far as getting on the dyno it will be good to go independent of mileage.

So, for the tune and dyno, I should be fine? <-- Sorry I'm such a PITA. I don't remember if tuning it requires more oomph than dynoing it.

I'll try to get as much mileage in as I can before, but I might only have one evening and the morning of to do so.... I can still baby it after.... if I must...

Glad the ACT only requires 200-300, cause 500 is a lot!

Aaron, (or anyone that knows) should I install a Walbro 255 on Angie's IX before it's tuned? Or can I install it after, and turn the boost up?

Figure you have to tell the ECU the fuel pumps size, but I'm not sure.


It has an intake, LICP, TBE and MBC (and a new clutch)
