    $High Dollar Injectors---Worth It?

    Doing some research on the latest 160lb/min - 1650cc/min injectors available, and came across the latest rave Injector Dynamic PN1700.60.14.14.6 and FIC 1650cc/min injectors. Both cost about $1400 for a set of 6. I do think these are both high impedance, which is not a requirement for the FAST...

    How much was low timing hurting power?

    Well I'm try to get an idea here of how much power was being missed out on by running low timing. short story.. I was running effectively 16 deg total advance at 28PSI. I went 9.16@150.2mph. How much do you think power wise I was hurting myself, compared to like 21deg at the same boost?

My car is ready for some shake down passes, but perhaps I should wait until October sometime where the humidity is down to around 70% in my state, what...

    Deceleration Tunning

    All, I am trying to straighten out my street tune on my CLASSIC FAST for when I lift the throttle and then mash the gas again (tune PIA engaged lol). Anyway, the problem I am working on is the engine is going to 9.80AFR and lower when I lift the gas and the throttle blade closes. So much that...

    What size turbine wheel (Inducer) is needed to make 1000Hp at the tire?

    What is the smallest turbine wheel do you think can meet this Hp goal? Lets keep the compressor wheel under 82mm. What is the largest exhaust wheel you would go with to meet this goal and still have "decent" spool response? Thanks

    Loading effects on AFRs

    I have been thinking about some data logs I took of some runs on a back street near my house. The first log is were I did a nice linear roll into the throttle ion second gear. The tires hooked decently and I ran it up to about 6500rpm before shifting into third and letting out. In viewing the...

    High AFRs at 30lbs on my stage II

    I am about to start diagnosing a potential problem and would like to see if anyone has seen this before or has some thoughts. I am seeing AFRs in the high 11, low 12 :jawdrop: when I crank the boost up to 30lbs. I have made three passes and the MPH is consistently in the low 150s. Injectors =...

    Changing over to a distributor with the classic FAST box Cam Sync issue

    The Cam Sync value on my classic FAST dashboard reads 0 when the engine is running. I am using an old classic FAST harness adapter (not caspers) and it does not have a wire going to D3 on the FAST box. D3 is the Cam Rtn according to the ECU pinout. I do see a wire going into C3 which is the...

    Job Well Done

    I would like to show my appreciation to a job well done to the author of the thread “Engine Pic” posted a few weeks back. I got in contact with Chris Hogeland when I was at my last hope of ever having a stout stage II V6 in my 87 GN. Chris not only resurrected my engine from the grave but has...

    Well , Yea it sucks, but I did a coolant system pressure test and it stayed at 19psi for 4 hours yesterday. So I am brainstorming the possibilities. The turbo I have is a Comp, it is water cooled so I am wondering can water get past some sort of seal and drain back into the oil pan? Has anyone...

    Turbo Heat Blanket/Shield

    When I look at peoples pics I rarely see a heat shield. Even on the GT40 type exhaust housing, I hardly see a heat shield being used. I am thinking of getting a heat shield/blanket for my 76-4bolt turbo, but don't want to spend the 100 bucks or so if there is a caveat or something I'm...
