Alright im getting my tax return next week and im going to be finishing the fuel system.

I will be using E85 and for now, im only going to use 1 racetronix pump with a hotwire kit and brfpr.

What injectors will i need if im only going to run 8-10psi? Im stuck between 60 and 80s

Im only doing 1 pump for now because itll keep me from turning the boost up. I will be upgrading to a nastynate system this summer.

If you plan on running e85, then def go with the 80s as the fuel really needs all the injector it can get. Keep up the good work, its coming along nicely.

thats what i was thinking. i just wasnt sure if the 80s would be too much injector at this point.

Well the fuel system just needs the dual lonnies pumps and its ready to get tuned! I got the lines, rails, injectors, and regulator together this weekend so hopefully there wont be any leaks.. **** was exxpeennssiivve. Here are some recent pics.

PCV hookup


PCV routing


After the rails were installed. I will secure the FPR, dont worry.


gauges are in


cut more of the bumper out, westtexasbuff is making a plate cover for me, thats why i left the bottom portion.


Like i said as along as i dont have any fuel leaks, it will be getting tuned in May!

Thanks, at this point im just hoping it stays together long enough for me to drive it.

he claims ill have no issue hitting 600 if i want it.. but i think im going to keep the timing at 15deg max and 8-10lbs of boost. i wont be spinning it past 6k either

7.5#'s and 16 degrees did 545 on a dynojet and 10#'s at 14 degrees gave me 580 on a mustang. 600 on a dynojet shouldnt be a problem

well long story short, it took us 8 hours to tune the car but its done and im more than pleased. Brian at Dynotune Motorsports in Columbus Ohio is one of the best guys Ive ever dealt with. He's a class act in every aspect and anyone in the state of ohio(or surrounding area) needs to talk to him about tuning their Lsx. it took us so long because we had some wiring issues that we had to chase down but he never gave up and we pushed on.

Car made 636whp and 660tq on a dynojet. It spikes to 12lbs and settles to 9. This is not how the car the left the shop, this was more of a bonzai run. we pulled timing out and its back down to 570-600. i dont remember what the final timing is but i wanna say 18-19degrees im pretty sure AFR is 11.0 though the entire rpm range.

Im probably gonna drop the boost for a lil at first as ive never even driven anything over 400whp



Here's a vid of a 598/605 pull
