Wow, Its been a while since any updates, I apologize.

Anyway, I took a break from the dyno project in order to sort out some issues with the Miata. I think I finally have everything in order.

I'm going to get started on the first real experiment this week. The first project will be camshaft timing and trying to find the sweet spot for cruise.

This is a fairly big project and I had hoped to do videos, but for now the first few experiments will just be pictures. The video part adds a lot of complications and I just don't have enough help right now.

Well, here are a few shots of what is going on lately.


Dyno engine has been fitted with an adjustable cam sprocket.


The miata engine has also been fitted with an identical sprocket.




Soon we will know if the cam timing can enhance MPGs.

Stay tuned!
