the intercooler test. anyone can read the dfi log i can send it to them.
iat's started at 110 then DROPPED to 95 and back up to 100 by the end of the pulls.. this is water and anitfreeze in the intercooler, and not even getting tricky with cold water, the water temp was ambient if not warmer as it sits under the hood.
turbotech race kit, run1 was 10psi, run 2 i richened it a bit and lost hp, put it back and went to 11psi third run, 4th run went to 12psi.. i didn't even shut off the car between runs 3 and 4.
oh yea this was amoco 93 octane only
fwiw the reason i dynoed (if you say it allready made this much) is because this is a new engine and i finally cracked 1k miles on it. check my 'are express' post.. new block and pistons, same cam/crank/heads/compression
i'll see if i can get a graph off of the dfi somehow.. i'm very pleased and wish i coulda nabbed some race gas in time.. but that will happen this time next week.
i figure on a 60* day 650 would be easy and safe on pump.
thanks to the guys at performance autosport for getting me on the rollers.

it was orignially 8.75 the heads have had a few thousands taken off since then but probably still under 9:1
bigbos the car allready did 775/840 on the old motor. 16psi 115 octane.. i dont think i'll bother being in between on 100 octane, i cant get it at the pump near me anyhow.
