    Help the WWU FSAE race team

    Yes V38 is the current car. V43 is in development, but V38 will be going to Detroit to compete this May. The website is extremely outdated, and it is rather embarassing, but V30 is on there. It has a student built 554cc V-8 (yeah, V-8) that revs to almost 20,000rpm. Shoot me any questions...

    looking to tune my car (clueless on this computer stuff)

    Yes you can data log but you have to have a laptop in the car to do it. the board itself has no memory. You must have went to WWU then right? And you must have driven V26. It was recently put back together the right way and looks pretty sweet. It still has the 900 and it still screams...

    Building A Torque Monster

    I would suggest getting a program called desktop dyno. It was put together by an Irish engineer and its is quite acurate. The biggest help will be that you can change the cam specs and see the results instantly. I believe its good to 5%+- actuall numbers. We use it in our engineering program...

    Why am I running out of breath at 4-5000rpm

    I would suspect the the cam. Not sure about the specs on your cam, but one that will delay the intake valve closing will increase flow at top end.

    is it fairly easy to replace lifters? also, occasionaly, my car will back fire a bit when i shift into 2nd or 3rd. could a bad lifter casue this by holding open a valve? If i replace the lifters, could the backfire go away?
