Re: regrinds/ euro intake cam??

[Anthony Pelletier <vwnuts@yahoo.com>]

I just checked out Ben's dyno:  Nice power for a 1.8. 
I noticed something that I have seen on all the 16v
dyno's.  They all have a dip in the power just after
3K.  Is there a logical reason for this.  That is kind
of a bad place to have a "dip" as thats were most of
us cruise at.  

btw Ben, you had a tt cat back. and (race dp?  magna
flow muffler).
