All stock, but all cleaned up, tightened up, or new.
The cam is stock as well.

Please remember, I only reported the results, and I know
that a $139 accelerometer is no dyno, but I'll bet it's
close, as confirmed by my comparison runs in a stock 20vCQ.

Blew up the K&N OXS Lean/Rich meter last week, got another one
will install it and the EGT gauge this week (if it doesn't snow).

Definitely the peak acceleration numbers (hence peak hp)
came in 2nd not 3rd gear, so I think the fast spoolup of the
K24 is doing its bit here.

I will take the stopwatch and report those times, but honest
they said we may get 6 inches Tue/Wed, so the results may
be delayed til next week.
