Well as of today ive got the timing tables a little higher. 18* max at 5.5psi, thats what i was pushing in PSI today as my sileniod controler will be here by friday I hope. I hate the manual controler and its crap so I just let the wastegate do its majic.
I know timing is conservitve..afrs are now great solid 11.5-12.0 in all boost runs up to 5.5 psi I ran today, car definitly picked up alot of speed with me adding 2-4* of timing in the tables. No spark knock. So when its nice again and i have the new controler ill be able to work on the timing table, then the fuel table, then rince and repeat till I get it right. Im aiming for getting 10psi somewhat tuned well(conservitive) by the end of april so when I go to the race track I can have a good base tune that I know will be safe on the motor. The nice thing about this controler is that I can tune for sepertate chip ...6psi for the street and another for 10psi at the track or whatever I decide on., and the only thing I have to do is insert the chip(tune) I want and them Im done. Of course when it gets warm out, ill have to do all this again..LOL Its fun though and ive came along ways in my tune in the last 2 weeks of (very little) free time.

Check this video out. 11.32 psi, good afr, no knock, and 0-95 in about 15 seconds @ 88% throttle(tps).. Im thinking im on my way to a 14 or 13 second pass if my drivetrain doesnt give.

Let me know what ya think??? I remember this car did 0-100 in like 28 seconds before(when it was stock)..LOL If i can find that video ill put it up here.

Ok heres some numbers from it and once the video gets done uploading ill link it up on here. I got a new camera and I hate it!! I forgot that it recorded the video in hi-def. So its taking forever to upload.

Heres the #'s

These are off the datalog...
0-60Mph 6.27 seconds
0-70Mph 7.89 seconds
0-80Mph 9.88 seconds
0-90Mph 12.40 seconds
0-95Mph 13.87 seconds
0-99Mph 15.09 seconds



Gtech said these numbers....
0-60 6.25 seconds
1/4 mile 14.79@99.3 Mph.



Sorry about the glare in the video, and youll see that on that start i literly just let off the brake and floored it so thats a horrible launch in my mind..too forever to spool up. But april 14 marks the first day at the track so I can see then how well the car will go..Hopefully its not slower then a high 14's at the track...

Heres the video that links to those numbers.. dont laugh now! LOL

Cars really light considering. 3050 LBS without me in the car. If you go for a 305 dont get a TBI!! Personally I would get get a 305/350TPI.

I actaully beat those RSs camaros with a 305TBI regulary at the race track with just a cam, ported heads and a few other little things. They run 16's stock which in my mind is embarrasing for a V8 camaro, at least I had a excuse...I had only 191 cubic inches:)
