I can't run meth because of Smog. This will be Smog legal. I did a Secondary/8 Rib upgrade. I did just about everything I could while the engine was taken apart. Including somehow buying sway bars!
chp went to in n out about 10 minutes away from Andy's shop and made people pop hoods at a car meet handed out state referee tickets like candy carb stuff is important
What injectors were in there again? Now that there will be 80 lb's in there now?
Any word on what boost it was laying down too?
Thanks,Matt
Not sure how much boost it's putting down. IIRC, its a 3.6. It had #60's in previously and they hit 125% DC @ 6000RPM @ 585RWHP.

100%. I never want to have to worry about the visual part. Of course when I smog, Ill have to do the header swap dance but all in all a cop says pop the hood Ill be like... No Prob!!!
Well my car is really giving Andy a run for his money. The #80 injectors weren't being nice to him. They are re-doing the fuel system on Monday/Tuesday. SOOooooo dang close!!!! I figured it would put 575 down but the number in my head was 605. I am happy as a clam. Wonder how much an LS6 intake mani would help.

At this point a LS6 on F/I wont do too much more for you! so it's not worth the extra effort or money, on a N/A motor it would be well worth it!
Yeah when I seen that A&A had to go to 80's I was wondering if it was going to need the fuel system upgraded, good choice to have them do that - Fuel is the key and the proper way to go, no bandaids!

Keep us posted!
Was the number 605 or 575?
Thanks,Matt
So far 604RWHP
Again I am just so freaking impressed with Andy, Josh, and A&A. When I was shopping for a kit I called a few vendors here and got terrible attitudes and egos. These guys are the best.

We just got the clutch in it on Friday, so I didn't get it back on the dyno until Friday afternoon..
It ran out of injector because the fuel pressure is hovering around 50 PSI at WOT. It would have been fine with the correct pressure.
I threw 80's in it just to see what it did and made 604 quite easily.
The O2 sensors were pretty lazy when I did the part throttle tuning last week, before we drove through the clutch on the dyno. Now one is flat lined and the other is close.
I came in Saturday to see if I could get it close, in open loop, but decided the proper thing to do is put in the 60s back in and add our secondary fuel system. I'll feel better with the proper fuel pressure.
I'm going to swap him for the LPE pump and BAP at no charge.
The poor guy has been waiting a while because of these weird issues. I figured it was the least I could do.
I also know that some of you will think that 604 is low. You have to remember that the gas we have out here, besides being the most expensive in the country, is 91 Octane (barely) and is mixed with ethanol and who knows what else.

When my car was being done by Englandgreen it was one of those with the same type of issues, after doing pretty much the same thing, it came alive. It's all going to be worth the wait in the end.

Talk about customer service!!!!!!!!! Some guys on here can barely get a status update! Andy you rock, take your time. For now I can drool over all these projects
I think the 604 mark seems perfect. I saw another guy on here with similar mods but a different tuner put down 570RWHP. That got me scared and I called Josh right away LOL.

I have to admit that 604hp with no meth and 91 octane is very impressive, especially for living in CA. and a stock motor!
I guess I'm spoiled with meth injection, and 93 fuel.
Kudos to A&A for making some really nice power with restrictions that others don't have to deal with!
Man 600 horses is no joke, especially when you figure the weight of our cars, on a street machine it's going to be a blast, your gonna trip when you see how easy it is to light the tires at will.

I was talking to Josh on Thursday about adding Meth. I am most likely going to do it sometime at the beginning of next year. I really need a new front bumper so that first then its time be a Meth head
Again just wanted to thank A&A and all you FI guys for keeping me sane during this build.

I had to relearn how to drive my car after getting boosted! It's hard to NOT blow the tires up!

My MR2-S had 345RWHP @ 2150lbs. It was like driving on trays!!!! I'm hoping the Vette will be a little more stout especially with the Pfadt Featherlights. I keep forgetting that the Supercharger is only part of whats being done. Ill have full suspension too. I can't wait for the SOW event.
