When you say "7000 rpm range" do you mean red line or 7000 rpm?
The only way to get it to 7000 rpm is an aftermarket ecu.
And the main reason jay does not take it to redline, is due to he will be running LEAN.
And yes the MEVI with a 6500 rpm limit is still worthwhile to have.
if you have not looked at the 4th gen FAQ, there is tons of info about this

Mods:
Blue lines: y-pipe, b-pipe (186HP, 197TQ) - Feb 2003
Red lines: y-pipe, b-pipe, JWT cone, MEVI (186HP, 180TQ) - June 2003
But that's still a lot of midrange to give up... the loss shows up in the 1/4 mile... but if I was to race off a roll on the highway, that loss in midrange is not a factor... MEVI truly owns then!
It is interesting to note that those dynos were performed on dynojet machines, but different ones. I know that could be part of the reason the difference is so huge, but none-the-less, this is what I have on paper now. I am now settled with one dyno shop so all future dynos should be accurate. Some people believe that this shop (red line) reads lower... so who knows.

Back before I had boost with my VI I lost about 15 WTW in the midrange, but picked up 7 PEAK WHP.
I understand your frustration.
How ever, using 2 different machines is not a good comparison.
What time of year was the 1st dyno? summer?
what about the 2nd dyno?
No intake?
sorry to jack your thread jay

I listed the time of year above - the first dyno was in Feb 2003 (65 deg) and the next was in June 2003 (89 deg). The correction factor was there... but I don't really trust those. I will dyno again soon since it is much cooler now and see what the results are like.
The first dyno with the higher numbers were with stock box... only mods were ypipe and bpipe (I listed the mods above as well) and the second dyno added the MEVI and JWT cone.
Hope this wait that is going on 9 or 10 weeks now is really worth it for that JWT ECU!!!

I am out to buy a new camcorder with firewire, this $1400.00 POS that I bought in Japan has no firewire

Not of the setup I'm working on right now for my car, no. Only pics on my website are of the turbo setup we built for Jason's car.

I'll post all pics when I'm done: before, during, and after. It's significantly different from Jason's though there will be lots of similarities.

I am pretty happy with the torque. When you want more and get greedee thats when you start breaking stuff. EX: axles, have to go buy one, raced a EVO from a deadstop and he just kept wanting some more.
