Got the car on the mustang dyno and got the tune ironed out. The intake manifold/throttle body is now a restriction as we watched the manifold pressure drop more and more as the rpm increased on the runs.
Run before smoothing was 247 whp 268 tq, it's got a good bit of torque for a little V6. Up from 169 whp and 184 tq when it was mostly stock. Fuel pump died a few days after this, dodged a bullet there. Almost done with the E85 system. The engine did what a stock LS1 did on the same dyno. She's a cruel mistress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqEeV_XYktY (IMG:http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a141/WarShrike/Dyno%20Jan%202017_zpsf9qc0voo.png) This post has been edited by WarShrike: Mar 27 2017, 12:34 AM |

Finally got to run the car, I've still got a lot more learning to do with it and felt I left with a few seconds to gain. Fastest of the day for me was a 60.3, FTD on course was a Z06 w/ 56.1. It tracks through the corners better and it feels great to have 80 more whp and tq available, even if this was a tight miata-ish course in some of it so the whole run was in 1st gear. I feel the 275s are a good start for me this season as it will help me at least learn more about the car and get some seat time. The BFG Rivals were very predictable but I'm not sure I even found their limits. The icy stuff was from all the gravel kicked up as the event wore on. • I need a harness, I found myself fighting to stay in position a lot. • Proper coilovers will have to be something to look into once I move up to a wider tire. • I need more seat time.
