I removed the restrictor and the car made 708/637 on the final pull after making 698/650 on the previous pull. It was 98° in the shop and IATs were obviously high. There was some belt slip noticed near redline, so a direct drive system is also in order. I'll also have to go back for my GSpeed Belt Guard. I don't want to replace or repaint my hood because of a snapped belt.

James Karger (Calibrated by Karger/LStuner.com) built an awesome foundation with the initial tune. Louis and the team at G-Speed did a phenomenal job on the build and final tune. I'm very happy with the car as it sits.

Mods:

LG Super Pro Headers
ECS Novi 1500 (6 rib)
Innovators West 10 rib 10% OD balancer
FIC LS9 injectors (resized to 108lb/hr)
ECS Fuel Block
ECS Fuel T (tie in)
Secondary Bosch 044 fuel pump
-08AN Fuel Line
TR7-IX plugs
GM Flex sensor
O'Reilly's RV transmission cooler w/ Spal fan

Here are the runs during the tune:





I'll have the graphs up later, this is all I had on my phone. I figure it's not bad for a stock cammed auto.

p.s.

Shout out to Doug and Chris at ECS for putting up with my emails and calls. Great customer service guys.

Nice!

MBB

Oh yeah...this was at 13.5psi

schpenxel

Any idea what AFR it was running (or lambda would really be a better unit..) and how much timing?

MDSilverVette

What was the difference in power with and with out the restrictor plate?

MBB

I didn't print the sheet, I don't remember the afr off the top of my head. I'll double check on that and timing later unless Louis chimes in himself.

Honestly don't know, I've never run it with the restrictor in. It did make 14.2psi last night though on a shakedown run and it felt noticeably faster (duh) once it cooled off last night. It was tuned in 98° Texas heat.

The car has so much left in it, I can't wait to put some more $$$ into it.

nice numbers!! that belt guard is pretty nice. it says for procahrger f series units. you sure it will fit your novi?

MBB

11.5:1 @ 14.5*

The shop used my car to complete mock up for the 1500 folks. I'll have pics of my belt guard shortly.

algZO6

will you ask them if it will fit a ysi?

MBB

Working on getting a YSi in to do mock up now. Hopefully soon.

M M Alexander

So!

MBB

Sooo when do I get you to mod my FMIC like yours?

It's Stock

I thought someone made a YSi kit for these cars? Or am I thinking wrong?

ajrothm

Oh don't worry....you will....lol


Killer numbers for a car that drives like stock.

GS_DAN

Awesome results MBB. Still wish i could have made your event in Dallas but it just didn't work out.

Have a couple questions about your setup, i am about to do something very similar.

1) Are you using the stock feed line as the return?
2) Are you running the stock fuel pump?
3) Did you add any of the regulator block offs?

thanks,

Subscribed! Wanna see how the belt guard turns out ;-)

Louis Gigliotti

Actually, we used the ECS fuel plate, and fed the Bosch pump to the back of the rail. There's no regulator, and no return, just a -8feed separate from the factory feed, activated at 3psi.

We didn't put a fuel pressure gauge on it, but PE was flat, and the MAF curve was reasonable,
So I have a good feeling that it's not starving. We are out of injector however, 88% idc @6500. No meth will do that on e85.

DOUG @ ECS

Nice work guys!

CI GS

That's a smart, simple way to do an auxiliary fuel supply!
How do you tee it into the rail?
I'm thinking of ordering an ECS Stage 1 fuel system myself and was wondering if anyone was doing something like that.
Nice numbers! The highest I've seen from a stock cammed A6.
That thing must feel pretty awesome!

Louis Gigliotti

I might have a picture. I'll look. We cut the back of the rail
Off, and put an 8an fitting on, and away we went.
