1000 HP....never asked him specifically what he was running so was guessing there. I would not doubt it at all as that car is ridiculously fast. He runs between 50-60lbs of boost and also runs spray on top of that as well.

Nice kill, surprised you're still using an S-AFC! Dsm's are what got me into this car hobby, I love the little pos's, lol. Very easy to make fast for cheap but you know what they say about cheap, speed, and reliability, pick 2 cause you can't have all 3.

These kinda threads def. make me wanna buy another dsm again though.

Do you have any other way of compensating for those injectors other than the MAFT and AFC?

850 + piggy backs = horrible timing maps.

He did not seem to shift the car the first go around, but seemed to do ok the 2nd go at it. 4 car lengths is a bit more than what I would have expected. His car should be putting down around 400 to the tires based on what he told me.
