The MAP sensor will always read differently than a standalone gauge, FYI.

Not necessarily. When tuned by OFT it would display the same pressure. Moto-East Scales the MAP sensor differently in their tunes. I am assuming because they use speed density. So MAP sensor reading is useless for me.

Would be interesting to note if the MAP sensor would read different with the new OFT tunes as they use Hybrid Speed Density now.

Edit: Got the okay to switch to E85.

Threw in some E85 last night. Runs great, seems to be so much smoother than pump gas. I was only getting ~16mpg on pump gas due to my fueling issues (still not sure if tune related or an issue in the car I.E. Vacuum leak). Not too excited to see what E85 Mileage will be like.

Not a whole lot going on at this point, a lot of waiting and planning. Enjoying E85 power, hating the gas mileage haha.

I am starting to look for the best place to build the engine. I had planned on going Element tuning, but they have a long wait list. Engine will need to be pretty robust for the plans brewing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

MAPerformance sells a complete NEW short block for the price that element takes to build you old short Block. I would just need to figure out the head situation.

I would really like the Head package from Element Tuning still, but I don't think they do just heads. Really after the 1mm oversize exhaust valve and good valvetrain to be safe to 8000RPM (9000RPM in element build head)

Really liking the billet merge collector. Should make the manifold easy to weld for someone who is just learning. (like me)

buy my t4 manifold, ill give you a good deal lol. one problem with 8k rpm + is the di pump pressures oscillate between 600-2000 psi. that was my reading through motec on e85 at least. the ecu was fast enough to compensate di duty cycle to make up for it though. ps, buy my motec as well lol

If it was twin scroll I would!

Motec isn't in the cards right now. Not with the expense of everything else that is happening currently. Maybe in the future. Not that it helps you trying to sell yours now haha

Quick Fly-by of my car last night. The crappy tires squeal louder than my almost straight piped exhaust.

Had a very weird and bad case of Knock a couple nights ago. Resulted in .50 IAM. I have tried everything to get it to come up(IAM though it is good to note I can't recreate the knock event either), slow acceleration 1rd-4th, decently quick acceleration in same gears and WOT in each gear with no results. It has crept up to .67 but seems to go up at the weirdest times. Anyone know how much this affects the drivability/power of the car? Had some play time with a couple friends on the way home last night and the car didn't feel as strong as normal. May have just been placebo effect though.

Picture I grabbed last night
