    Dyno tunes have their place for sure. Street tuning and dialing in drivability is awesome though 

    I`ve spent a fair amount of time and brake pads getting the fuel dialed. I suspect the heat issue is due to inadequate timing, but you really need a dyno to tune the timing at lower loads. Also (aside from the PCV...) need to get a weaker wastegate spring and wire/plumb some boost control, but this thread is supposed to be about why Earl hasn't touched his project, not about mine...

        I might have unintentionally turned a colleague on to Suzuki Burgmans.

          I considered moving earls car up and down on the lift just to say it "moved"

          .

          .

          .

          .

          I decided it was too much work.

            How about for every month he doesn’t work on it, we replace one random (preferably hidden) stainless fastener with a zinc plated one until it gets worked on again?

              That's the opposite of what I  would do. I just want to see it done, or progress made. One bolt a month it might have been done by now. 🙃

                          I guess I do have a little update here. Earl told me last week that he plans on moving the engine for this car to my shop as he is tight on space with moving. So having everything in the same spot again is forward progress!

                            Bumping this to keep the spirit alive until Earl can come give us hope.
