I sent my EC2 back to Tracy for an update, it was having ignitions issues above 6000 rpms. Now happy to report that it runs great. I have the gen 3 crank angle sensors and trigger wheel, which needed some sort of software tweak to have it run correctly. Thanks Tracy. It was easy to tuneand runs smoothly throughout the RPM range. I do have an issue with the EGTs- my EM2 shows both egts running above 1700 up to 2000 F- way too hot, too hot for me to beleive the readout is accurate. This was occurring before I sent the unit back for the upgrade. My timing is set correctly, and I tried advancing it 4 degrees to see if there was any change in EGTs. No joy. I'll be running anywhere over 4000 rpm and the egts are above 1600 and will go higher with more throttle. I've tired to lean out the mixture, and the engine will lose power way before the EGTs start to drop. Typical coolant and oil temps today at 30f , 4000 feet, 5000 rpm, (mp I did not note, dammit) were both around 150 degrees- nice and cool, too much so in fact.

 

So, how do I test the accuracy of my EGT's? If the are accurate,  I fear my apex seals are gonna die soon.
