has anyone made "big-power" on belfab/etd/probe/CAT rods yet?
My 550 rx7's tested at 580 to 590. Add to that higher than stock fuel pressure I can see a set of 550's actually running closer to 600-625. I'd guess that's how you can get past 100% duty cycle.
You can't go over 100% of anything...
If the computer showed 110% duty cycle, that just means it's saying you NEED that much fuel to run the AFR it's trying to do at a given RPM and load. A fuel injector is only going to operate from zero to around 85 percent duty cycle, then it will jump straight to 100%.

I think the confusion is about the 100%. That means they're open all the time and not closing, right? So you can't get more open then open hence the confusion about duty cycles greater than 100%.

look at my duty here:

yes, I've fixed the map problem since, but don't have the newest log at work.
Does Since I'm at 70% duty, does that mean I need more fuel pressure?

Your wastegate sucks. If you're below 80%, you're fine. More fuel pressure won't hurt anything though, but would require you do to something simple like install an adjustable regulator.

whipple-wastegate. I plan on raising boost until the wastegate can cope. If I need an external gate...then I'll just get the checkbook out again.
I love my $70 shipped 38mm knockoff tial external WG. ******* gets the job done like a champ. It's nice. And consider I'm running an even bigger turbo than you, and I can run 8 pounds to redline if I want.

in your log it looks more like 11.0:1 towards redline, i didn't suggest leaning it out for more power but if you're getting towards the safetly limits of your injectors, going to 11.8:1 could lower your duty cycle 10%
my car went from like 75% to 60% going from like 10.5:1 to 11.8:1
