^ I'm thinking the same.
My buddy also has a 14mm from Giles but never had the chance to dyno with it. It's mannerisms aren't so great for a daily driver.
Could do it in one day and have way more power.
My guess is that you could take a Giles pump apart and still not know what he changed...other than what he tells you, spring, pin, h&r, etc.
You get them to do a pump for you, and I'll take it apart and tell you what was modded :shake:
I talked to him today too, just to touch base since I am a VE fan as well. He told me most of what he does, and they're all useful and cool tricks. Said 275cc out of a 12mm pump, which should be good for 500rwhp on big injectors. Seemed like a sharp cookie and a nice guy.
hmmm anyone tore into a giles pump after you got it back to see the differences? I'd like to know more secrets of these VEs. Or more time, pumps, and a pump bench to figure it out on my own...
Isn't stomp running a giles 14mm? or what can he do with a 14mm pump and how do you get a hold of this guy?
Now if Giles is getting 275cc’s out of a 12mm pump that is flat out awesome and I might just have to give him a call and send a pump his way. I have watched some of his videos and some of his stuff is just insane especially at the rpm’s he is turning with his pumps.
What I'll be stoked to see is if someone can crack 500rwhp on fuel with a 12mm. There are a few guys who are super close.
I believe that allot has to do with having a good fresh pump. Not a worn out one with half a million miles on it.
Thanks for the tidbit. That helps confirm something I've been thinking about.but I know one thing is the variable timing goes from base to full advance around 1,500RPM.
It runs pretty clean as is, considering. I leave a slightly noticeable haze at WOT. The other thing about Giles is he tunes the AFC so well that smoke is kept to a very minimum.
Here's a video of my buddy's with a 12mm on the dyno:

BTW, is the title for Project Rust Bucket transferable? Mine is essentially its big brother and yours isn't exactly a rust bucket anymore LOL.
