New Mexico is nice, what little I've seen of it. Be thankful you don't live up north and be tied to scheduling your life around that thing called 'winter' LOL

The exhaust cam must be fixed to open extremely late so if you use no exhaust cam timing you lose about 25 hp up top. You can get the exhaust cams to move fully/reliably at about 3000 rpm. You just can't get a perfect blend between the exhaust and intake cams to eliminate the dip. |

I think a larger intake plenum would help but what do I know I'm a turbo guy Now keep in mind with the Hydra EMS we are not captive to the oem port and direct injection strategies but we have only scratched the surface. For now I've been focusing on building the cam timing strategies. |

It will be interesting once I get hold of all my options how we'll tackle this but I would like to go for some serious lean burn strategy to bump fuel economy way up and then adopt more of a cylinder cooling strategy for maximum power. For now the Hydra is 100% plug and play stand-alone with CAN Bus so your dash, power steering, AC, etc is fully functional. |

Somewhere in one of the Toyota papers they wrote that the direct injectors are used at relatively high duty cycle to prevent them from overheating, apparently they can't go over 150C. I hope you guys didn't leave them in and turn them off. |

A lot of what's posted about how this DI works isn't exactly the strategy Subaru is using on this engine as we've logged it plenty. As I stated how we run the direct injection strategy is completely open and we'll run it so it benefits "us" the performance enthusiast the most. |

You don't have the resources to do a direct injector durability study.

Just a quick noob question, is a flash like EcuTek's compatible with 91oct fuel? Will we see such gains?

We have built many blown up engines that only had an off the shelf reflash. Now its much harder to damage an NA engine vs. Turbo but it still happens. |
