I have been advised by Autometer to connect power to my electric fuel pressure gauge from a connection that has no power during start (cranking) mode. Can someone tell me which (or if any) of the ign 1 or ign 3 connections (other potential connection) in the fuse block will be unpowered during...

Phil Please add Leon Boelte to the 2014 list. Leon

Kevin & Carl Thanks again for you interest and input Now I have another question. I have applied the TCI calculator to my car's data, as well as, the weight and advertised horsepower of approximately 12 cars which have been road tested recently by Car and Driver magazine. The TCI calculator...

Kevin Thanks for your response. My actual race weight (me in the car) is 3600# What does that do to the Moroso calculations? Carl Thanks also, I'll be doing some interesting calculations with your info. Leon

Does anyone know if the TCI horsepower calculator (which uses 1/4 mile MPH and car weight) to calculate a HP number is representitive of flywheel or rear wheel HP? I believe this is an approximation of flywheel horsepower, but I do not know for sure.

I would like to buy an egt amplifier for use with my new power logger. The amplifier I prefer is the one sold by Full Throttle for $35. Full Throttle's item no. is 001EGTAMP. Thanks, Leon

Quarter windows Do you still have your quarter windows? If so, can you send me pics? Leon

I'll be there Count me in for 2009!!!!! Leon Boelte

Thanks very much for all replies and especially thanks to Bob and Dave for explaining a cause for the maf spikes. It seems I have one less thing to worry about now.

Please have a look at the attached scope log pic of a 1/4 mile run I made last weekend. Notice the up and down spikes in the maf display at the bottom of the screen. I have noticed these spikes in other logs. However, most logs have only 2 to 4 up and down spikes. Most street blasts (up to...

Correction for nozzle location Actually, my NOS nozzle is located just below the bend in the up pipe which is more like 12-13 inches from the throttle body.

I have a DIY alcohol injection setup that I have used for several years. I use a NOS nozzle located in the up pipe about 8 inches in front of the throttle body. I originally ran the nozzle pointed toward the intercooler. My logic was that if the alcohol was sprayed into the oncoming air it...

OK, is there a limit to the range of adjustability? For instance, my wastegate arm length is set such that with a "tuner style" set up I get 16.5 psi of boost. If I install the RJC controller can I expect to adjust it so that I can get 18 psi or 19 psi or 20 psi or higher just by tightening or...

I understand how the RJC Controller prevents rising boost from being applied to the wastegate actuator until boost pressure overcomes the set spring force and unseats the ball. Therefore, the actuator keeps the puck closed and spool time is decreased. My question is: does the RJC controller...

Look at a thread I started July 8. It refers to my BLM and ethanol (10%) experience. I think you will find it interesting. Slipstick

Is it possible that the gasoline you have been getting recently contains a percentage of ethanol? If so, it has a lower stoich value than regular gasoline and therefore requires more fuel for proper combustion. Search for a thread I started in this forum on July 7th titled "Higher BLM with 10%...

Thanks for the replies. I like knowing cause and effect. Things like this drive me nuts.

So does the logic that my higher blm numbers may be the result of my current gasoline containing 10% ethanol seem reasonable???????????????

I have been chasing the cause for higher than normal blms in my '87 GN. Most cells will go to 136-137. I have NO vacuum leaks and I have changed the O2 sensor. The driveability is fine. However, something has changed slightly in the last 6 months or so. I learned last week that the gasoline...
