Does the 103mm from Katech or a Nick Williams need the adaptor plate as well?

No, but you will need a 103mm snout as there is not enough material to port the snout that comes with the 2300 kit.
Magnuson and Katech both sell a version.

Well went back on the Dyno today. Primarily to reset the fuel levels. So, we reset the high side pump to 3500 psi, and the low side pump to 80 psi. Results were the high side stayed at no lower than 3000 psi and the low side pump no lower tha 50 psi at red line. Power stayed the same at 661/724 on 91 octane. Much safer tune. So next step is a boost a pump by ken bell and my 15% pulley. I have a 5% on now, along with kooks, AFE, x tank. If I want more power I need more boost and the boost a pump will provide enough fuel to cover the pulley upgrade. AFR stayed at 11.9 and boost was 14 psi

Good info. I have a 10% lower with headers and 103mm Tb, boost is mid 15s. With the 15% u will be at 17psi atleast, will u stay on pump or other fuel? Btw, what’s your ignition timing like right now?

👍

Subscribed. I have been looking at this unit and I have the same year and an A8. I made 850 rwhp on my old TT setup and it wasn't driveable really on the street so I ran it at 9# boost same tune as the 18# which yielded 600 rwhp. I would like to get over 650-690 rwhp with my C7 Z.

Were you just using 93 octane fuel or did with stock fuel system, or did you use E50 or Meth?

Thanks

pump gas only. Since there is no longer a magnum Mojave mile the car is now strictly a street car only.

Who is tuning your car in SoCal? Interested in knowing what mods you did in conjunction with the 2300 to make that much power on 91 octane?

paragon engine in Santa Clarita. It used to be RPM motors owned by Charlie Williams who was the best this side of the Mississippi River. Austin bought the business from Charlie who taught him all he knows. He’s worth the drive

OK I know Charlie well as he tuned my C5 a couple of times and lent me books on tape/cd for my drives from Sacramento to A&A back in the day. Glad to see he or his protege are still around tuning, we had the first copy of HP Tuners 3bar for my C5...might still be on HPtuners website.
