Doing well my friend.

Curious, what kind of EFI system are you running on this, and did STS do all of the tuning?

I'm now a little hesitant with Dyno's since I've lost 2 engines on the Dyno out of 3 attempts lol. But I'm going to need a professional tuner to dial mine in once it's ready.

I love me some fox body's for sure. It is pretty cool. I like that you keep taking it to the next level lol.

I just watched at turbo lsx fox body at Beech Bend run 7.40's at 188mph. It was a 427 lsx block with a sweet 88mm. The car made 1300 on the dyno that day and won the money for highest pull.

Curious of your results from the mid ram. I have heard mixed reviews, so it will be nice to have an unbiased result.

soooo i went back to the dyno. i wasnt able to tune unfortunately. i had to order a new laptop and my own HP tuners. but on the street tune it made 10 horse less than my C16 high timing pulls. that tells me the intake is making around 50 horse. im impressed.
*edit* this was on **** 91 octane and 50/50 meth distilled water. 18 psi and 13* timing. A/F was in the mid to low 11s. baby soft tune
