@bbong718, that is amazing that they would have sold you a car without a rectifier. Did you get it from a Radical dealer? I would contact the shop that sold you the car and see if they will take car...

Hi John we run the OEM bleed from under the cylinder head into the lower water pipe so there is always a small amount of water circulating and bringing everything slowly up to temp. We do see a fluctu...

@rjbender I use a 250W heat pad on the swirl pot. But if I had it to do over again I think I'd use a bigger one to heat up more quickly & thoroughly.

Posted by: @rlm-dan Hi Brad, It is indeed a OEM Suzuki crank sensor and one from any year will fit. Unfortunately Suzuki only sell the sensor complete with the alternator windings so you need to buy ...

Just thought you might all enjoy the sound of a 1440cc Hayabusa engine singing on the engine dyno. Attachment : 7dd2d86c-6424-4394-acd7-1538f327b386.MP4

@rlm-dan That is interesting for sure. How do you deal with oil temps with hot coolant in the engine and cooler coolant in the radiators? I thought that would be adding another variable to an already ...

Posted by: @parsonsj @rjbender Love it! I'm stealing your idea! Similar to that, I use the AiM LEDs on the dash (I have an MXS 1.2). Solid Red is too low, slow flashing is too high, and fast flashing...

@rjbender, in my case I put the heat pad on the swirl pot and added a power pigtail to the water pump so it can be energized by my CTEK charger in supply mode (just like you do for fuel pump out) in o...

The coolant in my car comes up to temperature really fast, oil takes a while even with the wolverine preheater on the sump. Maybe that's due to the arctic temps we run in up here in Wisconsin though?...

@rjbender Love it! I'm stealing your idea! Similar to that, I use the AiM LEDs on the dash (I have an MXS 1.2). Solid Red is too low, slow flashing is too high, and fast flashing is way too high. I as...

No -- there is no thermostat -- either in the oil or the radiator. Since the oil is cooled via a liquid - liquid heat exchanger with the coolant, it's counter-productive to run a thermostat. Let me se...

New set of plugs are in. We will balance the throttle bodies and re-test exhaust temperatures.

Does anyone have any idea of the total volume of the car's brake system? I had previously converted my Porsche race car from Motul to SRF, but supposedly requires complete flush as they are not compa...

I would talk to Spring Mountain before you do that. I believe I was told it wasn’t a good idea to run the car in gear on stands. I could be wrong but it is worth checking first
