Mine is 11.7:1 at 6400 RPMs, where my peak RWHP is 486. My peak RWTQ is 487 at 5500 RPMs.

The problem is, I am losing power down low because I am below 10:1 A/F all the way to 5500 RPMs. So I've very rich untl nearly 6000 RPMs. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I'll fix that when my 12-bolt and new motor is here... I've got Ls1-Edit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

done! YIPEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

now I feel good about the $5000 spent on the ati finally. I see just short of #5. now rather than my boost starting at 4500rpm it starts at around 2500-3000rpm.

fuel pressure is still 68ish, then drops to around 60 on boost, then at around 6000 rpms it spikes up to 80! This spinking up to 80 is what ati said to make sure it does. (I guess to make sure the fmu is working properly?)

this had to have made my car nearly a sec. faster!

did I mention last night I spanked a new stang gt from a 60mph roll! hehehehehehe <img border="0" alt="[Pontiac]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Pontiac]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" />

installing my pulley now, came in for a break, only pita is removing the trans lines to get off the belt and install the new one.

cleaned the K&N and changed the charger oil while in there...
leaving fmu all the way rich until I get a dyno run in to check A/F.

Changed to the 340 pulley from the 410 and really like it better. I see about 4-5 psi of boost near the top end which is where I thought it would be. Boost starts kicking in at 2500-3000 rpms, about 1 psi. Before there was nothing at 3000 rpms.

I am happy now. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Off to the dyno again. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />
