      Can't you just keep quiet until you actually have results to brag about, like MOST people?
      Really? This is your addition to this thread? Wicked.

      So, because I don't know the difference between dynos, that automatically negates everything else I may or may not know?

      Logical. I like the way you think.

        eh, every dyno manufacturer says theirs is the most accurate. dynos are a tool for tuning, not for measuring your dick. The only true way to know crank output is to measure it on an engine dyno..

            Yes, we read it the first time.

            And I can still see you bring a lot to the table as well.

              so, what exactly *do* you know about engines then? Because you haven't posted anything yet.

                  Not measuring my dick or crank hp, and that wasn't sponsored by any dyno manufacturer. Just a person relaying some research.

                  I will post specs in my build thread when I start the engine build. I will not speculate, but I have done hours upon hours of research and have accumulated many parts. I've built E36s in the past, including your beloved Euro S50B32, and I'm fairly certain that I can find the power I want in a US S50. If for some reason I can't, I will take the criticism.

                  But if I were to make a laundry list of the things I have been and will be getting, you will call me out on that too.

                  When it goes in the car and I make my final numbers, R3V will be among the first to know.

                    you've done hours of research? like what? if you really had you would know what engine VE is and why I can say with *certainty* that you can't do it. I would bet money on it. how is $100? you post a verified dyno sheet if it making 300whp, and I'll paypal you $100.

I don't know about the M20, because I could care less about an M20. You probably know that answer off the top of your head based on the car you have as your home page.

                          I'll start saving my allowance money now. if I save 10 cents a week, that should probably give me enough time.

                            Probably about right. Seeing as if read my earlier post I predicted this to be about 1.5-2 years out. 10 pennies per week for 2 years will get you there.

                            Hold on to them, cuz I'll pm you about it for sure.

                              I was thinking more like 57 years but I guess it depends on how many weeks you count in a year.
