^I wouldn't expect it would.
Someone else mentioned chipping in for another run after some de-kinking. I'd be in for that if you do go that way.Last edited by sketchman; 12-05-2013, 09:38 AM.Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

Also considering we have no 1:1 and 4th is 0.861:1 you could theoretically be seeing 14% under reality. That's already 104.5whp, and the ideal scenario goes up to 119.7whp. Obviously I'm way off in theoretical land, but still.Any difference that makes no difference is no difference.

I bet there's a lot of power left on the table running on the stock ecu.
Go standalone and let's see its true potential.Last edited by rmoltis; 12-05-2013, 11:01 AM.

Also, the cam in Matthew is a turbo cam, which makes very good torque as opposed to peak power. If anything it might be a quicker cam in the 1/4 than a peak-HP cam, and is certainly very daily-drivable. Matt dynoed it up to 6K RPM, not wanting to hit the fuel cutoff, but says the HP numbers were still climbing at that point. This is what I felt too, when I did a roll-on with it. So getting rid of the fuel cutoff via MS or some other standalone would be a good thing.
Not sure what the compression is. Hafta axe him.
Edit: Matt also said that running it in 3rd gear would have been better; and that I couldn't just pump in E85, I would need either larger injectors or 85 PSI for the stock injectors, or I'd quickly kill the motor with a too-lean condition.Last edited by TominMO; 12-05-2013, 11:15 AM.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

I'm more inclined to going with a standalone and a dual-core radiator, to control heat at the higher RPM range.Last edited by TominMO; 12-05-2013, 11:33 AM.90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

Tom, sounds like you need to get Matthew into a better shop in the area. Those guys didn't seem to know what they were doing! I've always seen fans running during dynos. And yeah, I would have thought they have some way of gauging rpm without tapping into the system or something. Like the inductor coil thing Matt was talking about. Sounds like you need to find a better shop. I'd gladly give you 5 bucks to hit another dyno with it. I'm sure a couple other members would pitch in too.
