Joe,
As I mentioned in my other thread I've already done the head shave. Also, if you've never seen a "stock" Z3 header you should check one out. It's a piece that is about as racy as you can get. As far as "cracking the code" I'll admit readily that is waaaayyy over my head. I'm going to work this winter with Oscar Velez in Puerto Rico on the computer and what can be done to it. In regards to your diff question....nothing from the 2.8 is legal on the 1.9 furthermore it doesn't even fit. We spoke about that in the other thread...large case diff vs. small case.
The only point I was tying to make earlier was that how does a competitor go about proving a process or theory wrong. Everyone has talked about development as a way to gain hp and therefore advantage......just the way it should be. I feel the Z3 needs development to prove something is not possible...very different. I have a fairly developed Z3. Possibly the fastest in the country . The Dinan stuff you mentioned I have equivalents of or better. I will be getting the dyno #'s and will post them but, if you follow the way things go around here then the next naysayer will say "wrong dyno.....Mustang vs. Dynapack blah,blah blah" or "yes but you have a stock header" My point is you have to have thick skin and a thicker wallet to prove someone wrong. The burden of proof lies on the competitor not the naysayer........
