Well I guess I left a few points out. Firstly I wanted to add to Jasemas's question of how hard I was pushing it (the previous motor), that the ECU for that motor had been chipped by ECU Man, and revved to about 9000 rpm lol. So for that motor I guess it was being pushed very very hard lol.
Anyway, with this J's motor I had no need for that ECU since it came with its own J's racing ECU! It has their official logo plate on it, so I already have a good tune for this motor. To run it I needed to get a conversion harness, so I got a Rywire. It turned out that I needed an obd1 to obd2a conversion, as opposed to the obd2b I expected. I guess this ECU was originally from a B18 or something, since B16Bs are only obd2b I believe?
And no I haven't had it dynoed. I wanted to take it to V&E's dyno day recently, but I busted a motor mount at the drag strip a couple of weeks before and didn't have the time to fix it yet! More on that in the next post.

Yes, it feels amazingly better! The power is substantially increased, and another contributor to the enhanced feel is the aftermarket LSD (previously I had no LSD at all). The traction is unbelievable. The power makes its way to the tyres so much better. When you're accelerating through or out of a turn it just pulls you right through it!
Also in that track day I wasn't running the J's racing headers since the flange was different to my old one, and didn't really have time to get it put on properly before Yonas' track day (which I really wanted to attend since it was only about 20 cars!) so I just ran my old X-force 4-2-1 headers. Hopefully we'll see an improvement with that as well in the next outing, now that the J's headers are on!

Thanks I got the motor package with box and everything (ECU, wiring, etc) for a lot less than that haha (about half). Given that it's used and all.
