    Seeing all the bolts paint marked on the trans made me so happy. Glad you made a point of mentioning how toxic 2k clear is, too many people just recklessly spray it without any PPE.

    Andy's a beast, installing a head, flocking a dash, rewiring the harness, dyno tuning! Is there anything he can't do?? 💪

      I wish Andy was my next door neighbor. Better yet, my best friend! I mean Andy is like a "Master Mason-Jedi Master-Supreme Allied Commander-Big Papa"! To call him a mechanic is an insult!

    When you guys were talking about the anomaly of the 250 HP and now only making 235 reminded me of a segment from Wangan Midnight where they said "For special cars to us, like Z, when a sudden power down occurs, everyone continuously repeats the trial and error cycle many, many times. But what has been lost never came back. The heart of the tuned car was lost."

      If the session was essentially the same, the dyno reading is sort of irrelevant. They'd be able to go to another dyno and get a different reading due to calibration variance. The most important part is that the tune is solid in a controlled environment so that it can be tweaked from logs at the track.

    • @lucaskelly4590
      @lucaskelly4590 Před 2 lety +5

      Should actually pad them, not to protect it, but in case of an accident if you hit it. Sure you have a helmet but hitting steel isn't fun.

      I’ve had so many car friends in my 20+ years of owning Hondas that just know how to do it. I’ve rebuilt a B18C1 on my own and had to lay out all the bolts and parts like one of those exploded images, plus carefully follow the manual. The friends I have just have it down, and it’s never not impressive.

  • @porchprymate

    Ben Thorne's turbo SVT FORD ESCORT ZX2 needs a comeback on this channel, and we need ZX2 G&G merch as well. I would instantly buy a ZX2 G&G shirt (with 98-02 ZX2 front end, of course!)

    On a NA engine, real tuning happens when it has about 15k of daily driving with long highway trips. I've had 5 Japanese NA engine that I bought brand-new and driven to about 200k before retiring it. Peak power usually happens around 50k (miles). All my engines had real soul and performed better then expected. Key to my success, is that I never had to open-up the engine and did my own maintenance.
