Ok, with all that's been said within both threads do we agree that the Whistler is a first order of checking and if a competitor does not agree with the results he may request the engine to be cc'ed. How about we drop all the can't do and have the engine cc'ed at the track by a capable person? Do we usually have a Spec Miata person at the track that is capable? Do we pay that person to cc the engine? Everyone put their cheater hats on and let's find a positive conclusion to cc'ing the engine at the track.
David - this is just ludicrous. To pull a head off every-time we go to tech is BS. Or if someone protests another driver on compression. None of us will go for this.
Use the Whistler. It is amazingly accurate when used properly. Use a well defined repeatable process. Do NOT let any of the drivers crew insert the whistler components of be actively involved with the test. If it whistle more than 0.1 over, then do it again, and if still over, box up the engine and send to KS paid by driver.
