I've got a quick question about your fuel setup in the beginning. Do you remember how your injector duty/fuel pressure drop looked when you made the first 600 dyno #'s? I'm running the same racetronix pump/wiring kit , but Ford 42# injectors. Thought about the same 60# injectors you were using. Just want to know if the pump is ok IF i upgrade the injectors. I'll also be running the Alky Control kit w/ 100% meth. Gotta get these 2 things figured out before i get my tune.

i sure dont bud. IMO 600rwhp was pushing it with that pump and is not worth it. time to grab a dual setup from lonnie. its not that expensive and its super easy to install. worth it IMO consider that fuel is one area you cant afford to skip out on or itll leave you broke down and on the side of the road.

Wait, you have an F1A and are trying to squeak by with 42# injectors and a single racetronix with a hotwire kit? Just like it was stated, you need more pump to be able to support anything north of 500-550rwhp with a blower. Sure you can go with bigger injectors, but you will soon see that the pressure is going to drop off and you won't be able to tune it if that happens.

That's what I figured! Wasn't sure if I could hit the # even with the meth. I'm probably going with the 80# injectors and check into the dbl pump setup.

you might be able to get by....but why chance it. its not worth it when you consider what you may be wagering against. just because you could squeak by does not mean you should.


as far as UPDATES

I just spent 5-6 hours loading the car up, mocking up the front fascia, putting the exhaust back on, boxing up all the parts, ect......and getting them in the car and getting it raised back up (afcos were all the way down) to be able to get it on the trailer. I will be leaving for Kentucky about 2-3am, and hope to be there around 10-11am. I have to go grab 15 more gallons of e85 real quick but thats where we are at. My buddy Andrew P. a fellow TA owner was kind enough to lend me his trailer driving skills and time. The next updates should be juicy. I am shipping the injectors back to FIC to be cleaned since they have been sitting with e85 on em for a week or more. They will be locked by the time the engine fires. Wish me luck.

It was good seeing you today! I'm really excited about getting started on tidying up the rest of the car to get it dyno ready. I think you have a really nice combo of parts here to make some killer power! I'll try to keep the thread updated as well as you Joey.
