Well , we had it on the dyno , things were going realy good until we thought we took out a head gasket , well it was the head gasket , but it went out because # 3 cylinder steel sleeve turned 12 degrees , well everyone is working hard to get things going again , going thought everything in the motor to eliminate any other / more failures ( bad time of year to get things done )
But the stand alone system was working unreal until this happen , at 6500 rpm , 7 lbs of boost we were getting 258 HP and a unreal 208 ft / lbs of torque , well i will let you know how thing go once we are at it again and will try posting some videos .

Motorheads sled is back together and will be back on the dyno on Wednesday , he is starting with the map from mine as a starting base line , so if all goes well with he motor , the tuning should go along quickly .
Hoping my block should be back sometime next week and back together the next , and back on the dyno shortly after that and then more feild tuning with lightspeed around here before heading to Revey at the end of the month .
The standalone fuel / timing system has worked as we were hoping it would , The motor related problems that we ran into were from the past and we had to fix these issues before continue with the standalone , i for one got new pistons , new block ( my old one that was steel sleeved by mongoose , That dropped & turned one sleeve and when looked at by mongoose all 4 sleeve were egged again , new block is getting closed deck only ,no sleeving ) New crank ( lack of oil pressure and flow )
I have heard of guys haveing cylinder egging issues with every type of set up now , steel sleeved , steel sleeved and closed decked , stock cylinders and i hear of guys not having any issues with these same set up , ever engine is different and needs a different tune , some guys are good tuner with the time to do it some are not , i am not , and i am trying to get a system that is more tuneable , freindly to use and does it all as one unit. (fuel / air control , timing control , auto tunes , close loop , data logger ,knock senser (s) that auto retards timing , runs meth system , anti turbo lag , launch control ( pulls timing and cuts cylinder out ).
Well time will tell .

Yes i did sell the RB3 , to late to go back now and motorhead sled is up and running with the standalone , he just has to find time now to ride it .
all that are involved with this project ( Cam , Lightspeed innovations , Myles , Rocky Mountain Yamaha , and of course me and motorhead have put a lot of time and money into it , Motorhead and i have not been out sledding yet this year because we got involve with this , and i for one knew something had to be done for better engine management on these sleds , and we both ended up haveing engine problems from the past that was again fuel / timing related , that had to be fixed before we could carry on with this project .
Well my new block /mod oil pump just got back from One Stop Preformance and the rebuild will start and hoping to have it back on the dyno for more tuning next week .
