haha I don't think so. Im running no timing and 12.2 afr. I just made a newer tune..now 25* timing and 12.7 afr. Ill finish off at 28* and 13.1 afr. The +4* and -.5 on fuel made a ridiculous difference. 700 more miles till I can really kill this thing...once I hit 1000 miles ill put the nitrous on and bring it to the track.

Few updates.. After months of misery trying to find my problem I finally found it and fixed it. The camshaft in my car must of been ground wrong causing all sorts of crazy problems. I had low compression, no brakes at idle(no vacuum really anywhere) and a HUGE backfire/breakup/loss of power from 2-3k. Not to mention the car felt like it was driving through mud under 4500rpms. After replacing just about EVERYTHING on the top of the engine and doing every test known to man, I decided to change the camshaft. The second I started the car with the new cam I knew it was going to be a good thing. I had vacuum in the engine, it ran so damn smooth, and after an hour of retuning the whole car, it was FINALLY the monster ive been waiting for. I even got around to installing the nitrous which I haven't used yet but will soon.

before the proper silicone 90*

I look forward to seeing it! Although I'm happy with my car I will always wish I could drive to the track or around town for that matter.

Kind of off topic but we are swapping an LS into a Subaru BRZ now. The car has 100 miles on it lol. GTR on the left is getting a 1000whp build (twin 37rs) If anyone is interested in that build my friend has started a build thread over on LS1 tech and we will be updating as we progress.
