A little background, as you know I have been blowing up rear ends etc while helping George with the new Stage X. The last one grenaded at 18psi on good fuel and it was a total loss.
I have made a change in housing and ratio. Because of this I decided to re-base line my setup. I was trying to hold out on posting the sheets so I had the comparison of Pump vs Race fuels and more boost at the same time but its just not going to happen right now.
The drive train consists of a forged 348, stock crank with average ported (flow 270CFM) heads to give me 9.2-1 compression, LS2 intake manifold with 90mm TB, reverse split cam and now a Getrag 3.73HD rear. No trick short belts, methanol, Torco (although in the summer I use it) stock water pump and even full exhaust (B&B tri-flow, not the best for power but I like the sound).
I drove it their (45 min. drive) and made 3 pulls.
This is my PUMP GAS (Sunoco 94)Tune that I have raced on and put 1200 miles on so far with 13-13.5 PSI boost. Boost controller was set soft to keep the tires from spinning on the dyno. I logged Air fuel, its pretty stable at 11.5-11.7 using my wideband, They use a tail pipe sniffer, which I hate and don’t trust. Hrm I think that is it. Oh, except for the preemptive strike, the drop in power at 6800 rpm and up is very intentional.

But Yellohhhh, you still thinkin' about a Stage X? Come to the dark side!I contemplated it, but I decided to have ECS install a 3.1 pulley and and alky system, and re-tune my car instead. While I'm not at the power level you X guys will be at, I am over 500 rwhp, so I can't complain. Over 450 rwtq from 3300 rpm to 5600 rpm so it's a blast to drive! With the money I saved by going this route, I plan to pay my car off this year, and buy a C6 Z06 sometime in 06 when the initial feeding frenzy dies down. Then, back up to ECS for some dished forged pistons and stage X for the Z...

Phil,
Do you this this is a major build for the ECS boys?
They did alot this past week and as you fellow forum members can see here's my almost not complete project.
I should have results within the next couple of weeks for all of you too see.
I just have to make sure I keep Chris off the net so he can work on my car!
