trentlikeshp Member 63 Member For: 12y 9m 23d Posted 03/06/14 09:23 AM Author Share Posted 03/06/14 09:23 AM okay so it's been on the dyno, drained tank, filled with united e85, fitted the 1000cc squirters.set a really rough tune as a baseline which consisted of 20 pounds, factory timing settings and quite rich afr which delivered 471 hp and 1080 ft pounds of torque..then added some timing and trimmed the fuel up a little and chewed the auto to bits on the following pull... so now the box is out to be repaired and more so to investigate why it let go at such small numbers..having very little luck with this thing of late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trentlikeshp Member 63 Member For: 12y 9m 23d Posted 03/06/14 10:01 AM Author Share Posted 03/06/14 10:01 AM yeah I'm aware they're a pretty piss poor box, but was built to cop about 500kw.. and with an external trans cooler and a deep pan I don't think temperature would've been a major factor after just 2 dyno runs with the fan on the whole time, but could be wrong.guess ill just wait and see what my trans builder says about it.. if it won't stand up to my power goals and/or driving style ill have to look into a C4 / turbo 400 / glide I guess Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
