not sure. i do notice that every time i get a lame 60' my mph is high. I get a good 60' and the mph drops. most of my passes are 119-121. The 124 pass i was also knocking a bit so i took out a degree of timing and the mph went back to 122.

Just curious to know, How much boost do you spike to on 93 pump gas with the higher compression set-up?

Maybe Paul or Lucas can answer? I'm wondering what the ceiling of boost is on pump gas with the higher compression.

I ran 11.9@119 on straight 92oct with my 10:1comp and 20psi. The car could not take any more boost. Was getting about 10cts in the top of 4th and I get 0 cts with E85. It was also 100deg when I was running so I am sure on a cool night I could run 11.5 at 120-122 on pump if I wanted on 92. (My bench racing )

Its hard to put a # on how high the boost. If you run less timing you can get more boost. It becomes a game of if the boost is making more power or more timing and less boost is making more power.
