Break-in is OVER!! getting ready to dyno & tune... put the nittos back on the car this morning, and did a couple WOT runs going to work this morning.
Car seems really strong!
I'm getting around 6-7 lbs of boost by about 5700 RPM or so, my O2s are about 940-970, and I start to get KR at 5000 RPM and up, between 3-5 degrees.
my timing with the KR is around 21-22, so I know I'm running too much timing, this is with 93 octane mobil. Once I'm near empty (probably this afternoon by the way my fuel economy looks!) I'll pick up some 100 octane and see if it helps with the KR.
I want to dyno once without tuning, with just 100 octane, then get a tuning dyno session setup with a local guy that has LS1Edit...
I'm hoping for near-450 RWHP, in a smooth running car. We'll see if I get close to that.

Re: Break-in is OVER!! getting ready to dyno & tune... I would tune for both if possible. But I have the Stage II Incon kit, so I just tune it for certain circumstances, and save the map. Then I can just swap out tunes in a matter of minutes.

Re: Break-in is OVER!! getting ready to dyno & tune... I'm gonna tune for pump gas, I just want to see if putting 100 in there will get rid of some knock. more for my own benefit than the cars....

Re: Break-in is OVER!! getting ready to dyno & tune... I'm definately getting too much timing, and running way too rich. I'm going to dyno at FLP on Wed around lunchtime... will fill up on 100 octane prior to that just to see if it helps.
any advice on how high I should rev it on the dyno??? I've got the comp double springs and titanium retainers.
When I get to actually "tuning" it, I'll lower timing enough to run on 93, and see how much it ends up costing me power-wise.
It was scary-fast (for me) right after the build, but I'm getting used to it, so I'd hate to give up to much HP....!
