Wink More boost

Turned the boost up to 14.5 today on Mikes car with some nice 93 Octain.Fuel held better with the changes I made but we still need to add a second pump and a nice Carb intake someday

Here's the graph. I wanted to post STD but I feel guilty claiming the other 60hp/45tq so you get SAE

I'm figuring 750hp/750tq for the street on pump gas.There is alot left in the midrange area on that graph because A/F was only 10.5-1 which kills the midrange.

On the dyno I'm shooting for 1000+hp for some fun but it would never hook on the street with his current setup

I'm going for 900hp on regular 93 octain Of course it would probly just be a dyno # since the car would never hook 900hp with Nitto's

We are working on some efficiency stuff now which will get rid of some restrictions and give more hp per pound of boost on a lower octain(93). Also we haven't pulled any vacuum in the motor under boost.That should help on some HP

Run down on 10lbs in this cold weather

1st -1/2 throttle boost=rev limiter
2nd -1/2 throttle,boost=rev limiter
3rd- 3/4 throttle ,boost=rev limiter
4th- full throttle ,holds till about 75mph then spins=rev limiter
5th -full throttle,hooks,stuck in seat pretty good,150mph comes real quick.Feels like a 400hp car in 3nd

as fun as it is to have that much power on nittos and roast the tires at 80mph, i'd have to think it'd be a little freaky Think of how much harder it'd pin you in the seat if you actually got traction hooking in second gear even

Killer number Don I caint wait to see what that thing can make with a adiquate(sp) fuel system. That is crazy on 93 pump gas too. But lets see what it can do on 89 octane. Thats what all the REAL turbo guys run
