Ok I figured since it's been a while I would update this thread a little.
So the car has sit since it's last tune, I hear you ask why? well......
Last time working on the tune for the car we took her up to 26psi on C16 where she was making 446whp and 370ftlbs but kept having IC piping issues. I fixed the IC hose and did a couple of verification runs when I noticed that we pretty much had maxed out the fuel setup.
Something to add to the fuel setup issues is that I knew I had done for the injectors (RC750's) when I last dyno'd it on 100 octane making 400whp as they were at about 95% idc's then (using 50psi base fuel pressure).
Scroll forward past the last 3 months dead time to today and we have this...

No for those of you that know I had been struggling with fuel pressure issues and had managed to fix most of that with a MSD Fuel pump voltage booster but I was seeing some issues up top again so decided to try this..

I should all being well have some dyno info to add to this thread before the end of this week.

I wonder if that guy with the 8cm Red is going to be out there. I think he's got a built motor that gruppe-s is trying to work the bugs out of.
