You gotta start posting pics of the cars/setups not just Dynographs!!! Seems like low timing given the E85.

You don't have to get greedy on timing with E85 either, can go 160 with 12-13*. Considering its a 390 it prolly has better heads then your typical small bore cathedral that may want a little more as well. Just watch the plugs like anything else, if that's what it wants that's what it gets.

This would be me guys. Unfortunately track was horrible the other night and couldn’t get off the line. Still managed 126mph on 20psi after peddling.

Yeah, 73mm. I think it was running out of compressor. It was picking up 25hp per pound above 15. Also, converter slip gets worse as you turn it up. At 24psi it was 8% (not bad). When I want more, I’ll throw s372sxe’s on it.
