Sweet, Richard! Can't wait to see some numbers! Let me know when you get tired of it and want to sell it.

That sounds about right. In the warmer weather with the 3.4 pulley on, I was getting about 160 after 2 consecutive HARD runs, still no knock.

There's a table on the timing tab that adjusts timing according to IAT's. I used that one to pull some timing when the temps get way up there. I think it's a bit conservative, the way I have it, but I don't ever see any KR.

Thats great Nathan. I'm going to eventually have a few questions for you.

Once I get the cooler on, I'll start tuning it seriously. I'm not sure what to do about fueling after the MAF goes static. I added to the PE table progressively larger values ending with 1.32 in the 6400 blank, but it still went very lean according to the O2s in EFI. I need to check fuel pressure, log my pulse widths, and hook up my wideband.

Jeremy, I've got to get this baby running hard before you decide to spray. Your setup is going to be hard to catch on the juice.

Mine go down to as much as 890. I try not to let them go under a static 900 though, so the 890 is just a dip.

I did the same thing on the PE table. I've YET to figure out a better way. Hptuners is suppose to be coming out with a way to extend the VE table on to 200kpa and even 300kpa in the future. If/when they do that, I'm going SD if I still have the blower by then. I bet it would run tons better and a lot smoother that way.

Do you have a hesistation from idle with that thing? That's in the VE table too BTW. That's supposedly VERY common with the SuperChips tune.

Richard, you think it'll be enough to pull off some 12.5-12.7s?

Congrats on the install by the way.

I have a feeling it will run some nice times. It ran mid-high 13s N/A before the radix. I opened a couple of older EFI logs to compare todays with. My run today was only 2nd gear from 33-83 mph. Thats +50 mph in 6.0 seconds. Reading old logs, the same 33-83 mph range took 8.0 seconds. There is a 1-2 shift in that range though on the old log.

To make a fair comparison, 2nd gear on the old logs is from 51-81 mph. It took 5.2 seconds to make that 51-81 run. Today, that same time slice took 3.7 seconds.

Mine were low .900s while the MAF was working, then tapered off until one side went as low as .790 at peak rpm. I need to spend some time in the FI and tuning sections now.

Thats a huge gain with no cooler. It should drop just a little more with some cold water flowing through it.

How do you guys read the O2 volts to tell if your lean or rich?
