my timing map looks nothing like any posted. dont give me credit for anything.
oh i see...yeah i should delete that one so it's never referenced again.
regardless, there's no reason you shouldnt be running 10* timing at idle.

the faeflora adjust map looks good, but i think that advance at idle is a waste of gas and the boosted rows look a bit retarded considering a built motor. but what do i know...im stuck on a 1.6L block and only can hit 240rwhp.

I was able to run more timing at full boost and lower rpm BUT i ended up with det at higher rpm. Tradeoffs compromises blech. Retard timig during spool can also theoretically help spool. In practice though, it is a big balancing act since more timing can help spool too. Also retard too much too often with too much power and u will start burning valves. My valves r prob burnt.

So my fuel feed line came loose yesterday as I was cruising on the highway. Fun times were had, I shat many bricks because fuel was dripping onto relatively hot engine parts and alternator. Nothing ignited, though.
Food for thought:
- I'm using the 99 fuel rail. The feed fitting is meant to be used with the clip-style NB fuel hose connectors. I have just normal 5/16" hose on it with a clamp.
- Upgrading my fuel system a lot faster than I originally planned. I'm looking at roughly $500 to convert my entire fuel system to -6AN, E85 proof system, straight from the gas tank.
- Contemplating a kill switch. But I hear they suck and cause more problems than they solve. Also need to be replaced on regular basis.
NA FPR on a NB fuel rail. Note the differences in barb fittings. p.s. the FRP is mounted wrong in the picture. needs to be flipped.

I have a spare 99 fuel rail. I'll play around it. Grinding it an option.
This is another option.

Ok i forgot ou wanted e85.
In that case i would do it like this.
Bigass souper high flow fuel pump of your choice
Weld shut factory fuel lid hard lines
Weld in -10 sized pipe in tank
Upgrade pump wiring (not that hard)
-10 fuel feed from pump
-6 return to tank
Inline e85 flex fuel sensor (do it now vs later ugh)
Upgrade fuel rail
When you run e85 you may be able to hit 400hp at the wheels. It will be ridiculous with that spool.
