off topic: How much timing have you thrown at a BP engine in the past? I am running 12 degrees @ 15psi on the greddy manifold / turbo making 227whp on the local dynamics so 260+ dynojet.

I ordered my new solenoid with 1/4" ports today so hopefully this one will work.

Thanks for responding, plot looks great if you add 12% across the board. Our local dynamics reads 18% lower then a dynojet, its a real heartbreaker, but its the best for tuning.

So I more or less have driven the car as a daily since mid May. So far no large problems with it. For the past week it has sat as I redid some wiring. I was tired of the MS being behind the passengers seat. So I have moved it to under the dash. I also did not like the million wires I had running into the cabin. Since I got rid of all the EGR crap in the engine bay, I had plenty of spare wires. I ended routing all my spark wires, vvt, AIT, EBC wires back through stock wires. I then shorted the part of the harness that goes from behind the dash to the stock ecu. The wires on the left are what I removed. The wires on the right is what is left to run the MS3x.
Next on the to do list is to find and fix my 2 oil leaks. I believe one is my intake cam seal. The other I think is oil drain line needing to be tightened just a bit. After that is to change the oil and send it off to be analyzed. I have 3k on my built motor and I want to know how it is doing.

So for the past 2 months or so the car has ran pretty well. I finally added water lines to my waste gate and I got my 6 point harnesses installed.
This past weekend I went out to my Carolina Motorsport Park for a track day. I worked corners Saturday and drove Sunday. I swapped springs in the wastegate and ran 6psi.
Driving was a ******* blast. The only thing I had to fix on my car Sunday was tightening my alternator belt, which I knew was already loose before I went to the track day.
I also need to find some money to go get a real tune. At 6psi there were times I was running 10:1 in boost.
I only got 2 pictures of me out on track. They were from my friends blackberry while he was working corners. Hopefully next time I am out I can find someone to take some good pictures.
