Well I figured out why my IDC's were so high

I went down to see Sharif today to get my Vortech tune touched up since I've been dragging the car recently. Just wanted to make sure the #'s were spot on so that would be one less thing to worry about when going down the strip. I had been noticing pretty high injector duty cycles (IDC) even though having DW 600cc injectors as well a the stage 2 CJM return fuel system set at 46 psi base pressure.
Well after a few pulls on his DynoDynamics, Sharif figured out the problem. Not too shabby for a vortech kit.

Hal - my timing isnt very aggressive and Sharif felt that the AFRs were spot on for superchargers that he tunes.
JT - Ya stock block. I felt pretty good til I backcaluclated the trq #'s
One of the tech's typed in Infinity. LOL
Raj - Ya that was with meth, but was not used to bump the timing. Sharif thought we coulda pushed it even more and he was even hesitant to lean it out on the top end. I really wanna get it on a dynojet now.

they are about maxed for this power level at around 98% IDC with a base of ~46 psi, so close to 60 under full boost.
Sharif said they are fine for my current setup. I still was able to get a good AFR, but to go any bigger would need bigger injectors, etc etc.
now I really cant wait to see how MORE!! horsepower that 928M impeller will make. That thing should easily support 500 hp on a dynojet!

he did nothing, just rise the FPR so that he can make it rich. then normally ull use les ms in the fuel map.
46 base pressure is low, should set it around 48-51psi base.

the problem was alot more horsepower than expected
nothing to do with fuel delivery. My fuel pressure doesnt dip at all. straight 1:1 rise all the way to redline.
no didnt touch my base pressure either. left it at 46. but i could raise it some to maybe
support some more hp, but no reason to have to redo the entire fuel map.
Either way, thats right at the edge for a stock block and way more crank hp than a turbo setup with similiar rwhp.
That's why I think the GTM pulley mod and all those tensioners are unnecessary if you are using the correct belts. Unrefuted proof that the stock pulley setup will not slip with close to 500 dynojet horsepower.

i fail even more at drag racing now bc i make a crappy 89.1 mph in the 1/8th mile with a street tire 1500 rpm launch. But I did just get my new clutch and will try again thursday night if the weather holds out.
There arent any 1/4 mile tracks that close, so I wanna wait to go there until i can chop consistent 2.0s (right now do 2.1s) and maybe wait for my drag radials to come in.

the power is realy nasty
