135g is coded into the ecu/hpt

Because with 20+psi that is now 80psi, and pumps drop off big time at that pressure. Was seeing 22-23psi tonight on dyno, so 58+23 is a lot of FP. Trying to balance that with maxing ecu limit.

Made 960rwtq a few hours ago, not bad for a centri.

You are making great numbers. I wont be shooting for that high, even though my setup should be capable of it.

Yah, looking at my 1100hp log, maf was hitting 12900, max KPA was 246. I really need to convert over to SD or swap to ID1300s or something bigger. Maf is becoming an issue. For 850-950rwhp, you won't have an issue.

Something I just thought about. I prefer to keep the maf since my alky control is running off a maf controller. If I do go SD I guess ill have to redo that too.

Been playing with mine all day, and I may have to go SD, or swap ID1000s for 1300s or something. Even with FP back up high it is going leaner than I like and maxing out maf from 5800 up. After my race in December I'll start working on a SD tune.

Today started putting stuff back together. Placed on the manifold with fuel rails to get an idea of how it will look. Still thinking about changing valve covers.
Drilling the hole in the oil pan is a bit nerve racking, but it went smoothly. Instead of using that ugly rubber hose and fitting that A&A supplies, we put in an AN fitting and will make a proper line to the head unit, with a disconnect just under it.
Also connecting the rear steam ports up. Lots of debate about this but I feel it cant hurt, and it will look kind of cool.

Tomorrow we will start on mounting the head unit and secondary drive. Maybe even attack the radiator area. Lowering it will be the fun part.

Some pics......

Todays progress.....
I got such a steal on this YSI kit that I couldn't refuse but I knew there would be extra work to do because it is a kit from a C5....I was told that I would either have to buy a C6 bracket or change the water pump to the older style... I can now tell you that with some modification, things can be made to work.
My main man Seth worked diligently with me, slowly grinding down parts of the water pump and supercharger bracket. It took time doing it little by little but eventually we got it right.
I have to say the YSI looks bigger and more menacing when mounted on the engine, than sitting on the bench. Spent most of the day fitting the head unit. Also started on running lines for the steam vents.
Tomorrow we will probably start on fabrication to lower the radiator, and fit the intercooler.

Some pictures of todays progress.

Rear steam vent lines attached...


Some grinding on the water pump....


Trimming of the supercharger bracket...


More water pump action...


More grinding... lots of good weight reduction for the track...


And finally... she fits..........

Got a lot done this week because of the holiday. Will be slowing down a bit now. No rush. Lots left to do. Today I slacked big time... basically just installed the manifold (and upside down throttle body) , cleaned up a lot of mess, and started working on the pcv/catch can system.

Things slowing down a little. Spent a few hours today getting the secondary drive installed, and maybe start on the fuel system tomorrow too.
The biggest part will then be fabricating piping and installing the intercooler.
Some new pics tomorrow if I have time.

Little plug for Seth and the boys at Federal Performance here in Montreal. Renovations and addition is almost complete. The performance division moving into the new section over the holidays. I guess we will probably complete my car there. Should be awesome working in a brand new shop.

Hey Unreal, do you have a picture of where your Tials are located. I just picked up an ECS kit and curious as to where to install the other one. Also I might be interested in that other Tial as well. Not sure what size spring comes in the Tial from the factory, but i'll end up going with the 2# spring probably (pink?)
