Vinny does yet another Dave Plate (Beers Install)
Spent the day at Vinny's shop (860 Performance) and learned what a quality install is all about! Here are some pics.
Used the Diablo Predator to pull timing and monitor KR, worked excellent. Saw 6° KR with a 100 shot, and pulled 7% (in Predator selection). KR after that was 0. with the 125 shot we pulled 10% (max) and saw a KR of 2°.
Some notes on what is left to do:
1) Matt at HSW will resize the black hoses, this will look fantastic with the HSW hoses on the Dry side.
2) The Dry system with 50 HP jetting was 12.1-12.5 on the A/F we stopped there on the dry, until we resolve the tuning issue. Not wanting to make my Blackwing CAI into swiss cheese, we are going to change the nozzles to 90° vice the 45° currently in use as a starting point for future Dry tuning.
3) Daves plate is running a 125 shot. Currently the setup is on dual stage 50 Dry/125 Wet. No issues with the fuel.
Current setup has 434.5 HP with some left in the dry side
Vinny can field the Dyno/Tuning questions
Combined 50 Dry/125 Wet vs the baseline numbers NA
50 shot Dry/75 Shot wet (Fuel Jet decreased by 2 from recommended).
Thanks Vinny!

Chris I will see if I can get some daytime pictures of that, a PM to Vin @ 860 while the install is fresh in his mind will likely get the info.
I am going back either next weekend or in June to get the LC-1 and a line lock installed, as well as some more Dry Tuning Dyno time.
I have not fired it off on the road yet, as I had rain showers on my two hour drive home

I have the 90mm plate also and love it. Numbers in sig. We didn`t lock the converter. Was new and didn`t want to hurt it on the new motor. But I love the plate over the ring. Check my numbers in sig with 200 shot!
