So I have had my car tuned on pump gas with the following mods:
Fuel Pump
head studs
ported exhaust mani
Cone filter
3" tbe w/ test pipe
LICP
ebay IC
Metal DV
Hallman MBC ~25

on VDR my best numbers were around 300/300

I decided I wanted to switch to the dark side and go E85 and do the tune myself so I added PTE 880's and started the process. With some help from the local tuner (Tobz) and his dyno I was able to achieve 355whp/363wtq which holds for awhile. I am very happy with it considering it was my first self tune and big thanks for Tobz for all the help!!

Boost spikes at 27.5 and tapers to 20 by redline.

 

You need cams! You'd see huge gains.

 

yeah I wanna stay with the 8 turbo to see what I can get out of it. Cams will be next along with a few other things. I was happy with the gains I made on my first attempt of tuning.

 

Similar numbers to me but I have 272 Kelford's and I made 380whp 350tq on a high milage motor! Get some cams!

 

do you like the 272's with the 8 turbo? Those are gonna be my next mod.

 

Why such a huge taper in boost?

 

That's what they all do, it's a small turbo, the engine out flows it at high rpms.

Is that a dynojet or mustang dyno? The interface looks mustang, but the numbers look dynojet

 

+1

 

another reason would probably because he is in colorado. plus he is on mbc. switching to ecu controlled boost on a 3-port would decrease the taper.

 

its a Mustang MD-AWD-500-SE dynamometer. To be exact.

 

it might have something to do with the 1.21 correction factor

 

its weather corrected so thats why the cf is so high.

 

looks good man, I have a simelar setup and wanting to switch to e85. This make me not want to wait!

 

Hey, you self-tuned for e85? I'm thinking of doing the same thing on my IX...any advice you could give me? ie: starting points for fuel/ignition maps?

 

Get some Kelfords!
