should make 780-800Whp i bet. is there any traction in 2nd, with everything off.. or does it spin 3rd gear as well on that tire?

Thank you for the kind words... Most photos are shot using my Canon R5 and either a 50mm 1.2L or a 100mm F2.8 Marco. I filter my iphone photo more monochromatic with less saturation. This project has perfectly melded my two favorite hobbies for sure

Haha... I sure dont feel like the most modded, but i appreciate it. I feel like I over invested in my phase.2 mods considering i was keeping the fuel system stock. And with the low side now holding me back, I know the cars full potential wont be had until thats done... but i am interested to see how much the FIC 30's allowed me to gain via boost and E...

Everything off, is not an option ... all variables need to be perfect to hook in 2nd (hot tires and rough'ish road) 3rd hooks most of the time... I agree, seems like 780rwhp is doable, although I know TED street tunes these safe, so i will guesstimate 765rwhp... stay tuned

It's not for mine either even with 345. Off is fine at the strip with 15" MT.

Hey guys... Just got back from another DYNO session at HAUS of POWER in FULLERTON CA... Love these guys btw...

Since my last run of 730rwhp 740rwtq I added a set of FIC 30's which allowed me to bump the E from 33% to 60% and bump the lower pulley from 8.8" to 9.17" which bumped peak boost from 12.2 to 13.3 +/-

NOTE... temps were about 10 degree higher this time IAT.1 (95) / IAT.3 (140) vs the previous run of of 85/130...

This time it put down 750rwhp and 777rwtq... which is a gain of 18rwhp and 40rwtq… I know the injectors have ALOT of headway, but I have now maxed out the JMS booster...

I know the DYNO is just a tool, but I was expect higher numbers.

Not that she needs more power, I am interested now at what a proper lowside upgrade would get me...

ME = Searching for more power... when the car clearly doesn't need anymore... This is definitely an illness

Looks like i might be having some belt slip up top... can i ask what belt size you all are using for a 2.4mm upper and 9.17" lower?

Also, i had the idea of registering the belt with the idler pulley with marking paint, run the car, and see if the belt moved? anyone else try that? Not sure if the belt naturally moves during normal driving...

Shorter than the one you have LOL.

Well, looks like TED was right... yet again!
Snapped on a smaller belt, picked up a pound of boost at 6,000rpm...
Just sent the log to TED to see if he needs to make any changes, either way, I'll strap her to the rollers in the next few weeks for some final numbers.

FYI... I was running the 45HD belt, and now the 42HD. I tried the 39, but it does not fit... and the 42HD is very tight... the tensioner is very near the top, where is was a little lower than its middle mark with the 45HD belt.

FYI... I have an 8.8" lower with 39HD belt is anyone needs it.

Hey guys... while installing my K40 System, and after seeing someone else do this, I decided to wrap my RF air damn with golf heat reflective film... I found a large enough 24" x 36" roll, that fit perfect, no seams, once I stripped all the brackets... I think it turned out nice. I also sealed a few large gaps with 1" strip foam... every little bit counts I suppose

I’d be very careful with running more e without more fueling capability. $15k+ to find out. Ask me how I know. Nevermind, don’t. It was painful!

Couple of things:

First thing, how do you like those Katech valve covers? Apparently they are cast aluminum and not billets right?

Second, how do you have a cam with a fuel lobe and fuel injectors and still don't have enough to run full pump E85, or is there something here that I missed?

For kicks, you should run a "Dyno" log on HPTuners alongside your normal logged stuff and see how much HP/TQ is indicated by the VCM scanner you are outputting and cross compare that to your Dyno run to see what the power differences are between the two.

Yikes, that sounds terrible... would love to hear the details of your story if you don't mind?

I agree, proper fueling, AFR, and conservative tune are critical. Which is why I choose TED to tune my car...
