BillS: iron heads won't take as much boost as aluminium before knocking. And I'm not so sure a fuel cut on your motor when it starts to knock is a good idea under boost. That's a good way to start knocking more and melt pistons!sigpic

lean is mean, rich is safe.sigpicHow to make High performance Emissions:
A "true" High flow converter, straight pipe.
Low/No flow EGR valve, block off plate.
Carbon canister and purge valve mod, place in large 30 Gallon can, cover, and place curbside, the city will do the rest.
PCV valve and vent tube, reroute to exhaust to dump where it belongs, on the ground. Or add breathers and let it all free.Comment

Just add a little Toluene to every tank

xylene works good too i guess. a guy at work used to race and make his own gas. increases octane AND it burns hottersigpic

That all depends on the amount of boost you want to run. If he is at 10.5:1 compression, then I wouldn't recommend any thing over 5 lbs of boost on a street vehicle.Originally posted by 1988GTU View PostLast edited by sprucegagt; 06-14-2009, 10:27 PM.Your local OBDII moderator

When the injectors shut down, you don't get a lean run condition (which would trash pistons) you get a no run condition - the fire goes out and doesn't come on again until you lift off. Wondered what the heck had happened first time I hit that, believe me! Miller Woods used that system and it seems to work just fine - not that you are bouncing of the limit all the time.Originally posted by IsaacHayes View PostComment

I'm willing to risk as high PSI as I can get as long as the tune is within a safe territory. There really is no magic number seeing how every engine takes on detonation differently.Originally posted by sprucegagt View PostLifting my front wheels, one jack at a time.Comment
