Hi Mike,

Thanks for the prod.  Just to let you know that things ARE
happening apace,  but no where near as rapidly as I had oriiginally
envisaged. I've been spreading myself a bit TOO thin lately.  To that
end, I've just quenched several irons.

In all likelihood,  I'll finally get around to fitting the EWP to my mule
RX7 S III sometime in the next week or so. I've been waiting to do
an engine swap. Just last Sunday,  I assembled an engine for
some serious ground testing,  but it first needs to be carefully run-
in.  Once it's bedded in,  I can stick the thing on a chassis dyno
and tune it. So probably another month or so before I have EWP
car data.

However,  seeing that the naysayers already KNOW they DON'T
and CAN'T work,  why on earth would they be interested in
practical tests anyway?  They KNOW they don't work!!   I mean,  
all you have to do is "run the numbers"!!  (}:>) The consensus of
several exponents of Theoretical Intergalactic Rocket Science have
already PROVEN that they can't work!! (}:>)

Further,  someone also said in a post (might possibly have been
you Mike??) that they wouldn't believe any of this anyway until they
saw it actually work in a flying aeroplane,  no matter how MUCH
data was collected in a car or on a dyno. So be it. Those of that
opinion will just have to wait until one is actually flying.

Cheers Mike,

Leon
