I bet he could blow it up just by picturing it in his MSM.

In the meantime, somewhere in the US...

"OMG, you have to call the manager, a crate LS-1 motor in the warehouse just blew up for no apparent reason!"

Well if it is a prank I'm glad to hear it. I'm pretty sure if you did blow another engine you'd probably set it on fire. Think of all the money you're losting out on

Went to the dynojet today mainly to tune my spark map and afrs to get everything linear as it was a little bit of a mess before. The intake manifold is staying on. My torque line is pleasing to me

Im gonna get an ebc and turn up the boost and gain. That should help spool as well as fixing my damn exhaust leak at the turbo to manifold which alone should increase spool times. The issue I always have though going to the dyno is do i listen to the dyno afr's or the uego i have. My uego is saying that im plenty rich but the dynojet is saying otherwise. If I use the readings on the uego, then i can lean the hell out of it and make more power. Push up to 300rwhp easily. But for now, the car feels good. My spark map got a really good overhaul and that helped out alot. The next thing im gonna do I hook the meth back up, get an EBC and go back to the dyno. Im gonna shoot for 330 on the dynojet and quicker spool next time.

Nice ****. You're already at 227 wtq, I wouldn't push the stock motor much harder. Hooking up the meth will ad power, so I would leave boost alone. Definitely need to work on spool though.

I'd trust the reading closer to the motor, which would be your uego.

Nice power/torque curve man. I wouldn't go past 250wtq on those stock rods though.

yeah well see. I mean dont get me wrong, the car feels nice now but I want to hit the 300 mark and leave it alone then. If my tq numbers go up to the 250 mark, then ill deffinately go back down on the boost. I figure 235-240 is edgy i know but im not tracking this car ever again so for a daily with only a few quick bursts here and there and 18 degrees max timing, i should be fine. Once the meth is on, i know i can kick the timing up more but im not gonna try and squeez more power through there.

If thats the case then I can just go and select my whole map now and take out 2 points of fuel and be good.

You should try to find someone with an LM1 or similar tuning version of an Innovate wideband that is known to be calibrated correctly and go for a few runs on the dyno.
