Finally!!! Cars on the road!! (video) Well I finally got off my butt and got the car on the road!! I found out that my DFI cant handle my 85lb. hr. Low imp. injectors and I have to have a VIC(Veriable Injector Controller) to run them!! So basically thats the reason why its been running rich as hell!!! I got to drive it and it cruises at around 10.0 and when any boost it present it starts leaning out quick!! I got a set of High imp. 42's that im gona put in there just to brake the motor in with, then get the vic and turn it up!! In the video when it looks like I hit it thats only about 1/4 throttle!! It hit 10 lbs. in a split second and freaked me out!! Ha! The car has 4.10's in it still so it raps up like nothing!! This damn turbo is so freakin loud I cant believe it!!! The video sucks for picture and sound!! Oh and the reason it was running hot in the end is cause it was low on water!! Will have better footage of it later!! Planning on getting alot done tomorrow!!!

Here is the original thread on it, but I had the lobe seperation wrong the first time! Its a 116 +2 so its actually a 118. Dont worry about the gears Ive got a set of 3.23's goin in!!!

Haha thanks!! I spent a long *** time thinking of all the little things on this one!!
Well ive got the Gen VI DFI and didnt want to spend another 2800 for the Gen VII!! But I didnt realize that that version wouldnt accept the low imp. injectors!! Of course I also had a shop that said they could tune the Gen VI with no problems and go ahead and put it in. So I completely built all my stuff around that computer system (you cant see any of the wires exept the tops of the first couple injectors) now they are telling me that they cant tune it!!! So I gota somehow figure all the bugs out and then how to tune it!! I know all the headaches will be worth it when its runnin good!!

Congrats on getting the car on the road. And FWIW, 116 is the lobe separation, +2 is referencing the intake centerline which would be 114.

Well its set at right around 1000 rpm, but when it hits really hard is when it drops anywhere under that! And im talkin about around 850-900 its definitly the cam talkin!!
