@Gen Gad to see your making good progress.
Keep us on the up n up.

304hp @10 psi on 93 pump.
400hp @16 psi on e85 (Fckn Corn!)
I will post up the whole build shortly.

All BS aside, sounds sweet.
Looking forward to it.

Getting perfect RPM reading can be so picky/irritating at times.

Here's King Tut's Dyno on 93



Considering it's on a dynojet with better fuel, that's damn near identical.

This was his 14psi run.

That's dyno only goes up to ~6400rpm lol

if thats the case you can just read the runs as mph instead of engine speed.

Yes sir, the fuel pump install can be a pain in a big ass.

Here's a compilation of what I've learned in the last few months of it.

Yes, the original zip ties the installer used started to dissolve. Zip ties aren't really the best for orienting the pump correctly either.

Much better, you have a couple things working against you at this point...

1. 91 octane
2. Factory exhaust (lots O back-pressure)

Free up the exhaust and you will pickup spool as well as the ability to run a little more timing up top.

Corn Juice will also help if it's available

We made 290 wheel hp recently on stock exhaust with a base kit and manual boost controller.

Ehh...I'm starting to think I have more working against me now. Bob put down 216 (91 octane) with his innovate kit today on the same dyno. His power train is stock other than a catback, but he also still has both cats.

The best thing to do is get that thing on a Dynojet with at least AFR logging and hopefully boost logging and get some real SAE corrected numbers. Then we can see what the car is doing and see if your making the correct boost numbers and the AFRs are where they should be. If you want to do some datalogs, I will take a look and compare to my car.

Have you checked your cat to make sure it's intact? I saw someones thread where they melted one or both of them.. don't recall who's.

was that @CSG Mike when he had the DI failure?

[CSG Mike]

Our cats were damaged due to the engine running ultra lean... there were no modifications to the drivetrain except for an axleback (muffler replacement). IMO, completely unrelated to FI, but I'll be more than happy to answer any questions.

Exhaust system is the only thing left I can really think of. Was going to check the cat out this week, but it doesn't seem to be an issue at first glance.
