My Very Slow Build

Hi. I am running VP M1. The ID 1300 was a thought but I also have to run on pump 93 as it is a street bike. I could not call it a street bike and not run it on the street. This is not a street Outlaw car. It will get me to work, out for rides down to Cape Cod and bike nights
I hope you live close to work and Bike Night. If you want to be able to run 60 psi you are going to need some stiff valve springs. That doesn't mix well with lots of engine running hours. If you don't adjust your fuel pressure down while on gasoline tuning it will be a challenge. That sounds like a lot of work and compromise to me.

Hi. Yes it is. We will only run 60 lbs when on VP M1. I have Paxx valve springs from DME. It will be a high maintance motor. 1 bike night is 50 miles out in RI. Eric at DAS is doing the tunes 1 for pump 93, 2 for VP C16, 3 for VP M1. And maybe one for VP X98 so I can run that on the street if I want to turn up the boost a bit on the street. I am also running NOS to help spoil the turbo and to freeze the intercooler when I race it. I will never do any street racing never. Or go faster than the speed limit.

Hi. I gave the intercooler RCC intake to Eric at DAS to see what had to be done to fit the ID 2600cc injectors. We got the from RCC but Eric did not like the set up
So now it is off to have machined for the ID injectors to have a better fit.

Did you buy them used? Those don’t look like brand new Marvic wheels. If they are new, I’d call whoever you bought them from and send them back for replacement IMMEDIATELY!!
Hi. They are new. I have never never saw such a bad coating job paint job. I was going to paint them purple anyway it is just taking a lot more prep work. When I finish they will be 100% perfect.

Well they certainly look used and dirty. Why wouldn’t you send them back?
Hi. The paint had the wet orange peel I have ever seen. I had started to sand tit down that is the dirt or dust on the rim. Like I said I was going to paint them anyway so it was just about 6 hrs more work. And when I finish them they will be perfect. I bought it from DME. I got a very good deal any way with Ceramic bearings. I was not to up set any way I called them and said that they was the worst paint I had ever seen. This is the 6th set of Magnesium wheels I have owned. I will post pics when I am done.

Hi. I received the CF tank mount
It is a work of ART just fantastic work. It is worth twice what he is asking for them. He does great work. No one said anything about the cam question. If anyone wants to know it is the ramp is so steep it slams the valve open holds it open for 90% of is duration and slams it shut. I beat valve to h---. But it took .8 sec off of the ET.

Hi. These are the after I painted the wheel in very dark purple pearl. I mixed the color myself. I took an old Dodge plum purple made it darker and added 3 times the amount of pearl of the newer Dodge purple. I do not think the color shows up to good in the photos. I will have to take some out in the sun.

Little disappointed in you on this one Michael. Do you know how much that paint weighs?? Your going to have to ride without sox now to make up for that.
Hi Ya I 3 coats primer, 3 coats purple pearl but only 2 coats clear. Hey it does have to look good. My friend and I have won best paint in show at ISCA Shows up and down the East Coast. At one show we won best of show, 1 st in class, people's choise and best paint. We always won 1 st in class. So at least it will look good if I fail to meet my goals.

That's what I tell them at the track. It ain't fast but at least it looks good.
