    Are you not tuned for more boost? Youre down a hundred HP not running 25+ psi. I mean, youre running e-85. Get him next time!

    meh. roll racing with AWD is stupid. his car is lighter anyways.

    I agree with the above assessments. If you're bothering to run e85, you should be boosting to at LEAST 25 PSI. 18 PSI is what I'd be running on pure pump.

    Thanks for the observations....

    I'm running hacked stock intake pipes which are a detriment already at this point...Imagine the inlet of a 9b sized pipe feeding the inlet of a 16g... that is the reason I haven't raised the boost just yet. Ray stated at 400+ the maf/intake setup begins to create a vacuum...I'm near 500...so why push it when I know its a restriction in my setup.

    I've got the fuel and turbos for more boost...just want to make sure I don't have any bottlenecks before I set it on kill mode. But Honestly...500 feels pretty good. If/when I do crank it up, it will only be to run him again..IPD his car is appx 350-400lbs lighter. I just weighed mine a few weeks ago...I'm at 3660 with a 1/4 tank

    Besides I'm too scared to really crank up the boost/timing due to a fear of crankflex/spinning a bearing. Ive got a 90k mile oild crank in my motor. Unless if Ray/Matt/IPO etc... state otherwise...
