We threw my car on the dyno this afternoon at Pettits. I managed 290RWHP in 3rd gear at less than 10 PSI. Boost controler is just jacked. We are going to yank it and install a new Profec next week. I am also having fuel issues so I am thinking of a new fuel pump and a rising rate pressure regulator.
Oh well...
Kicked the crap out of an Audi 1.9T coupe on my way home. We rolled off a light and he suprised me and punched it right as I short shifted second. Lets just say he got to watch me fishtail my shift to third from about 20 feet behind me.
Clobbered a 3000GT (non turbo) also. He has some killer lighted windshield sprayers. That was an ugly beating.

Cameron is amazing. You can see the wheels in side his head spinning he is really good on his feet.
He ended up throwing a Manual boost controller in just to see what would happen. We have determined my Profec B is either broke or defective so in goes a new digital profec b.
My timing was a tad off. Like 20° LOL. I was pulling 250 to the wheels as soon as we adjusted the timing it shot up to 290.
Cameron looked over my timing maps and liked them a lot.
My fuel is driving me nuts though. Something must be set wrong on my Motec. We were running on the lean side at 1 bar and had to keep letting off. I plan on dropping it off to Cameron next week and letting him install the Profec B and screw w/ the fuel system. He thinks the pump is weak.
We looked at each other at one point and Cameron says "there is no reason why this car should not be putting down 400 to the wheels you can feel its there."

How much boost do you plan on running?
