I think that's as far as we intend to go on pump 93 octane. E-85 is another story. I'll let Larry elaborate on that if he is still awake. I'm going to bed to dream about driving my car with all that power.

18psi is generally the max on pump (93octane)....

E85......don't know if the turbos will flow to max E85 heheheheheh...supra's are running 30-35psi!

Congrats (to both you and Larry/SP). Great peak power on pump gas, but of course would love to see the plots! You car is the perfect test mule for the 128 box - can't wait to get your impressions... When do you pick up the car?

I am shooting to pick up on Tuesday. Then begins the 800+ mile return trip to NYC. Don't know if I'll have the strength to manage driving 800+ miles all at 1 shot. I may need to break it up and get back to NY on Wed. I've taken the necessary time off just in case. So I should have plenty of feedback of both Highway driving and local street driving to provide ample feedback.
I just need to get the confirmation from Larry when everything is said and done....I still have the E-85 tune up & coming (maybe today?). I have no idea how much these turbos have left in them. I am hoping maybe at least up to 22 psi, maybe 23, 24??? Not sure. Larry will decide.

I would recommend spending 1 day in Chicago and driving the car around, go back to SP for a final once over the next day (if nothing else, you will have the opportunity to have questions answered you forgot to ask when you first left ), and then head out. How available is E85 in NY?

I thought there was a station about 6 miles from me, but after further investigation it was for Private use only (Sanitation). So I kept hunting and found several about 15 miles away. They happen to be very close to where we have car meets every week. So its not too bad. And besides, the beauty of the Flex Fuel system I now have, is that I can ping pong between both fuels. That is the best option EVER!!!

Given some time, the E-85 stations will work there way over into my area...Just may take a little time.

^ nice! I wish we had E85 here in NC - one station in the area only... W/M isn't so bad though now that I've gone to the headache of installing everything.

Yea SP uses a mustang dyno.

It is supposed to read similar to a Dynojet, but they still read a little lower (how much, who knows).

However, this is the same dyno I made 769rwhp (on stock cams str8 )

Don't know if he was grabbing tach signal while tuning to read TQ.

That a solid pump gas tune RR at 18psi. 20gs are actually not that small, you you should be able to run high 20 psi's at close to 800 hp with appropriate timing , I'd guess
I cant wait to see how solidly the 128 box interpolates between pump and E85.

Will you guys dyno a mixture scenario to double check AFR's? I know I'd want that verified before heading 800 miles away.


Tom did you ever do a dyno at say 25-28 psi to see when you started to just blow hot air?
