Taka's AE86 Dyno Tune @ Garage BOSO

So...Frank from Garage BOSO Dyno tuned Taka's competition AE86 on Sun evening.

Setting up for Dyno tune.

Looking @ the monitors and checking the condition...

Changing some parameters...

Who is Frank?

Frank can tune stand alone ECUs such as..Motec, Haltech, HKS, Apexi...you name it. Also provide car prep (race prep) services as package!

If you are interested in, please contact @ Garage BOSO, located in Gardena, CA!

BTW, shop inside looks like this!

Thank you, Frank!

Earlier on Sun...I found soooo pretty colored shinny metric gear wrench set.

Somehow I am attracted to these shinny thingys! (excluding shinny bold heads and else!) ...even though I don't work on the cars that often anymore. hahaha

And, of course, ended up bought this.

@ Technosquare: Yoshie's Drift 102/Kouki S14 Dyno Check

So...Today @ Technosquare, my Drift 102/Kouki S14 was Dyno-checked.

This car is almost stock...so kinda quiet.

Howard is checking timing...seems like a bit advanced.

AND finally, this is the graph!

BTW, we use "SuperFlow" Dyno machine, and the reading is lower like 20% from DynoJet.

O well...for almost stock car...

Drift 102 (S14): Cooling Upgrade

So...Today, some parts I got from Megan Racing were installed to my Drift 102 school car, Kouki S14.

Radiator for S14...

Rinsing off for 3~5mins with water...
Of course, these kinda...dirty hands are Taka's.

Taking off here and there, and also Megan Racing water temp sensor adapter was installed, too.
It is kinda difficult to see...but it is located upper radiator hose, upper left corner on the pic.
