    An EFI (or other) issue that is driving me NUTS

    Recently I refreshed my motor and it now is exhibiting a driveability issue that I simply can not resolve. On the refresh I reringed it, rebuilt the shaft rockers, installed new bearings and resealed everything. So nothing major that should have affected the tune. I run a F.A.S.T. EFI system...

Like to go with the 200 for sure. Bruce's is working PERFECT for me right now even with a juiced up new cam...

I adjust the IAC and throttle blades so the IAC barely bounces on the bottom of the graph while the engine is hot and the car in neutral. I set idle speed about 950 to 1000.

    F.A.S.T. Nitrous Control?

    I think I know the answer but can't verify it anywhere. My ECU is set up for IAC, individual fuel and spark control and wide band. Do I have at least 1 stage of nitrous control? My gut says no, but before buying a progressive controller thought I'd ask to be sure.

    Went to the strip this weekend for a test and tune. First time out. Dialed in timing curve to give a very nice (traction controlled)launch of 1.6. Next I began looking at the fuel curve off the log screan and what I could not figure out is it ran lean 13.6 AF for the first 5 seconds of the...
