I rented the Powerfab dyno on Saturday for 2hrs. I'm going to play around with the dominator and see if I can get the car to make some power. I'm no tuner but at this point it's just adding boost and timing.. We will see what happens.

I hope you bust the 4 digit zone on kill mode!

I really have no idea what to expect man. I'm going to have denmahs timing table handy for reference if I decide to adjust timing. Besides cranking up the boost and giving the dominator some fueling info in those KPA ranges their isn't much I can do. What I'm curious about is how much of a change in HP one pull to the next will be as the Holley learns (same KPA.) Should be interesting to see..

I will be watching graphs and hammering the throttle to see what it does. However on 93 and minimal fuel data in those higher KPA ranges plus conservative timing, I don't expect much. I would be happy with 750 or so at first. Maybe I'll have Jeremy tweak some **** I don't know yet.

Should be a fun learning experience! You'll have to report back with your dyno findings. I was just recently exposed to the Holley Dominator system and I really like how simple it is compared to the stock pcm and all the extra race oriented features.

Have fun and go make some hp! lol

Well nothing spectacular to report back. As stated earlier my tuner was not around and I don't know enough to go in and make massive changes. We were getting a massive spike in AFR when the torque came on around 3800 RPM so we didn't push it past 12.8lbs. I made a few small timing changes in the range but the car never saw anything over 14* and 12.8lbs so things are still very conservative. This is air filters on full rear exiting exhaust type of car so we will see what it does on "kill"


Edit* we made a few changes, corrected the AFR issues and bumped timing. This thing has got to be making 700 right now no questions asked. It's insanely fast

Going to the track to play around tonight. I will be taking it very easy as this is the first time out with the car and I'm on a stock trans and R200.. So don't expect anything spectacular. Videos to follow

Best of luck tonight, she's coming along nicely. Looking forward to seeing this thing all dialed in on kill.

Do you know how much the car weighs ?

Looking forward to more vids. Sounds like a beast.

Keep us updated on your stock trans. I'll be running the same (stock rebuilt T56)... Hoping that the car's lightweight will let us get away it!
