Ongoing saga of 500 rwhp
Went back to the dyno this morning with a freshly built return style fuel system, and a new Fuel pressure regulator. I maxxed my 1000cc injectors out at 490 hp and 426 tq at 24 pounds of boost. I have to get 1600cc injectors now, and have to run 2 intank walboro pumps. GAH it never ends. I just want to be finished with it!!!!!!!

Actually, I have boost by gear, boost by rpm, and traction controll through abs. Wheel spin is actually not that big of a problem. Im not saying that it doesnt spin, Im just saying its not like you think. I have 1.70 60 fts most of the time. It definitely a mid 10 sec car. As soon as some tracks open back up from the winter ill have some time slips.

I am running all MoTeC Electronics. Everything works so well together. It really is a fun ride. I am going to keep the stock intake manifold for now. I have modded it by taking those secondary butterflies out and increasing the volume of air it can hold. I got a 20 hp gain by doing that at 19 pounds. I want an intake, but it can wait.

I actually think that bang for the buck on a car with fully programmable injection that E85 is a viable way to go. It's not all that bad out of boost, will suppress detonation with ease, and is capable of big power without expensive race gas. You can see it starting to make itself more mainstream and you can possibly avoid smog complications with E85 that would be harder to do on pump gas and impossible with leaded race gas. I am considering switching to E85 on my car as well. Just for the fun of it.
As for me, I will simply add a second rail and run a second set of injectors with the TEC-IIIR.

Fmowry- My bad again. I did the search a year ago on there and there was one station like 10 miles north of Nashville. When I type in my own zipcode I get Oak Ridge which is 78 miles from me. The addresses you listed for Nashville are a minimum of 85 miles from me. Sunoco is 1.5 miles. Thanks for the Search though, my truck is Flex fuel, it might like some E85 again one day.

I just tossed in Nashville as it's the only city I could think of in TN.
