well it's all dialed in.

went from being able to run 15 degrees advance to 24 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I will take it to the dyno perhaps this week or next to see what kind of HP gain I got.

pretty sad though. I know I'm pushing over 400rwhp and 400rwtq now and it still feels slow <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

must be something wrong with me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Glad to hear everything is coming along heath. I don't get my blower back for another two weeks=(. It doesn't matter because I just broke my hand. So I am out for about 4 to 6 weeks which sucks.

Ouch!

Sorry to hear that.
Hopefully you don't mind if I hold on to the atap cable a bit longer.

Just email/call whenever you need it back and I will drive it on over.

Thanks again for letting me borrow it.

SuperSport2000

ya you can hold on to it for another or so.

Wow! I'm impressed. So you going to dial in mine next? I'll meet you half way <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Can't wait to see the dyno number changes.

You migth want to update your signature now.

Blackbird

Don't worry Andrew, I will shoot a mail your way with all the details so you can duplicate.

Heck since you have a 98 I can even send you my .ls1 file assuming you get youself ls1-edit to help give you a start on dialing in the spark curves.

Now the anticipation to see what kind of improvements were made <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

P.S. Sig update after I get the new numbers <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

good buddy, please let us know what you gained from the H20 injection!

Nickn20

BTW why wouldnt you want to run just alky? I have been reading up on some GN guys and some seemt o run nothing but that, and get good gains.

Blackbird

too dangerous for my blood.

from what I read water/alky mix 50/50 or less is not flamable which makes me a whole lot more confident having 5 gallons of it sitting in a fuel cell in the rear hatch.

Blackbird

not really. I have been doing tons of blasts to atap and such and I have used a little over a gallon so far.

I think under "normal" driving conditions, punching it here and there instead of every chance possible it will last me a good 3-4 months.

SMC!! SMC!! SMC!!

All the Buick guys run these kits with straight alcohol and the bottle mounts under the hood. It will make 93 octane act like 110-112 octane.

1. 110 is way too much octane for what I am doing. Don't forget too much octane slows you down. If I was pushing 24psi then sure why not, but I am pushing 5psi.

I will be snapping pics and creating a page with the part numbers and such since I have had about a 1/2 dozen requests so far.

Stay tuned.

Congrats that is awesome <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Now you should pulley up and retune haha <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Blackbird

already have the 6psi pulley chris. thats as fast as this blower is gonna spin.

I will instead be adding heads/cam/ls6 intake and then retune <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Looking for a ~500rwhp daily driver that cost me under $5k in goodies to get there.

I'm under budget, just have to see if the power is there or not when it's all put together.
