Congrats on the great times everyone!!!

Spooln4, Good luck getting it dialed in!!

Just wondering if there is any money given away for winning the quick 8 shootout(s) at the bridge?

Hey drew, was the 20g on for that run in your sig or were you still running the 14b? Race gas?

I got the 20g and running the day of the event . I mixed cam2 with 93. The car was running awesome that night, at 21-22 psi it was still not knocking with 3 deg of timing added. My A/F was hovering around the 10:5:1 ratio also so there was alot left in her. If I had ARP studs and my metal headgasket, I would have turned it up more! I thought it was a good night's worth considering I literally installed it, and drove it to the track. I also saw 40lbs of airflow which is a huge jump from my 14b's 29lbs per min.

Very nice, if I were you I would have added another 3* of timing with that low of boost. I think 23psi would have been do-able as well. Did you use antilag? NLTS? 10.5 is a good ratio from my experience, leaning out the mixture doesnt really do a whole lot for power, so keeping it around 10.5:1 seems to be an excellent buffer for knock. What was your peak timing? 19? I run right now 18*, and 21.5psi out of my small 16g on pump gas, which is my reason for saying Id imagine quite a bit more timing could have been added on your setup. She's definately got a ton left in her bro .

O yea, 40lb/min is pretty solid, 11lb/min is quite a nice jump .
