Default 618/643 aps tt @ 10 psi

Have to readjust the actuators I purchased (aiming for 13-14 psi), but still managed to lay down some good numbers with the boost leveling off at 10.2 psi. Air fuel is in the 10.9-11.2 range and running 14-15 degrees of timing (methanol injection works well, I saw no KR at all and am only at 71% inj duty cycle with the 60 lb injectors).

Just thought I'd share. I'll have some 13 psi dyno numbers in the next few weeks. Post graphs shortly.

Do you know where I can get a good deal on a supercharger? Im still debating if I should do a charger or turbo, what do you think?

Nice numbers! Good luck with that. I am more than happy with mine. More power than traction already.

Glad its all coming together for you did you end up using the Forge actuators?

Yes, ended up using the Forge units. Need to readjust them but so far they are worlds better than the stock units. I wasn't going to use the meth for the longest time but couldn't sell my system. Was leaning out without it and ended up throwing it on. It has more than enough fuel at this point, but I think dual 340's are in the works after pistons/rods/more boost.

Very nice. Did you cut and lengthen the clutch line, I hear that's suggested by some CF guys.

Nice work, should be a blast when the boost is turned up but is probably a beast as is for the street. What you running for a fuel system?

PSJ - the system included a braided line to splice the stock clutch plastic unit. So far, so good.

Websy - MSD boost a pump and Meth Injection. 93 octane + 1 can torco for good measure.

PSJ - stock H pipe with aftermarket cat back.

Venom - stock heads cam

We are thinking about fabbing up an external WG setup....esp when we try to go for much higher boost levels in the future.

A good fuel system is the key to making the stock block live again congrats on the #s and I hope you are enjoying the power and driveability.
