Give it some time. I am pretty sure his car has been running for less then 3 hours now and apparently it has started to snow up in MD. We should have some 5th gear runs by the end of the weekend.

***** on the road nigs
- Amazingly no fuel leaks
- My fuel map is all jacked up and needs some serious TLC. Yes my fuel is on the rich side and my **** is not going to blow up. Looking at duty cycle it looks like I should have enough fuel for 40psi or so.
- My alternator is seriously dying. Voltage is taking a big **** at higher rpm. I'm guessing the extra fuel pump is putting a hurting on it.
4" exhaust is LOUD AS ******* **** GOOD ******* LAWD IS LOUD. the vibrant straight through muffler actually muffles quite a lot. not sure the little resonator really helps much, but who knows.
Big ol S366 is huge and uh mellow. Spools very smoothly and gently. The old GT30 hit pretty damn hard and spooled from 5-25psi in about 500rpm. This spools from 5-35psi in about uh 2000rpm lol. Thanks to the snow and rain i have not really been able to do a real pull. Yes I hit 35psi at 6000ish RPM but that is second gear. I'm also not spraying meth yet and there's a bunch of timing left on the table that will help with spool.
Yes I was running 35psi is on plain old 93oct pump gas, with no water injection. No det. Conservative timing. I uh forgot to look at AITs though. When it's dry I will fix up my fuel and do some serious logging. Of course I will also do some comparative logs with QSV open and closed and all that ****.

I would really like to see over 650hp. The turbo is definitely capable of it. I think that there are a few potential airflow bottlenecks so we'll see what happens.

You know, I was talking to some gearheads yesterday and they didn't understand what my license plate meant. Maybe the joke is a little too internet-obscure.
Here's where the reference is from.
