Your flux capacitor wasn't charged??? Vtec fluid was low?

I didnt read the whole thread but did you try nonprotruding tip plugs? I was having blow out issues even with a .017 gap and switched to nonprotruding plugs gapped to .019 and problem solved.
usually if it doesn't stop blowing out past 0.19 i try to adjust the dwell on the ecu for the ignition, and if that doesn't work, then we upgrade ignition. and also like you said sometimes the plug type fixes it also.

ok heres where his car sits atm when its trapping 128mph, so it should have 133 or more in it with a good pass id imagine.
he said this was 85f outside.
granted the timing is lower then what it initially was at the beginning results on this thread, the weather changed the tune a bit as well.
when he gets some free time ill put some more strength back into the tune, but based on what we have here it looks like the car will not make it past 650 as it sits without changing to bigger cams or removing some bottlenecks that exist.

yep its what i expected though. around the 620-630 range. the tune is dialed down for safety and the weather is responsible for a good 40whp i would say. still tho 600/500 should be trapping about 134-135 so after he changes to diff wheels and slicks i bet he gets his mph. it was his decision to have the tune conservative (safe).
from the logs i got from him we can make it spool quicker & give it more torque also.. so that will help also. ill add some timing back for him also uptop to get rid of that flat HP curve.. but the idea is to make the car reliable and powerful which has been accomplished in my opinion. hes been beating on this car for months now. its taken out high 9 second cars on the street from rolls.. the cars just not prepped for a track and the experience isn't 100% there.
ill work with him to assure it runs through the gears clean and tune each gear that way next time he goes back to the track the car will be ready to go with its slicks and smaller wheels.

How much boost is it running now and how much timing did you pull? Also noticed the weight went up on this recent pull, what caused that? 100whp drop is pretty extreme even in warmer weather. Lighter wheels/tires might help the trap MPH from rotational losses, but the traction from slicks could actually lower the overall trap speed from cutting a better ET. I've noticed higher trap speeds when I cut a bad 60' vs lower traps w/ a decent 60' & ET. There are definitely some bottlenecks in the setup holding things back here.

Thats a lotta weight for someone trying to go fast. Put that pig on a diet man

i pulled about 2deg. in this car that's about 35whp and varies at lower rpm. its running 16deg at redline right now.
his gf was in the car.
also the log is 1byte RPM capped so its repeating 7968.75. so it may be more or less power uptop. i cant tell. we need to log 2byte rpm.
i thought a taller tire will always give more trap? he never passed the finish at the track reving out.. he always got cut off early.
i agree i think the cams are a big cause and maybe the fmic? the fmic doesn't have much info about it in the evo community that i know of. he doesnt want to change anything right now on his setup though.. so we have to work with what we got for now.
i did some mods to the rom i think it will gain an additional 30whp uptop based on what i changed so i will report back.
