map ef4 stock block and e85 tscompusa tuned
Quit thread jacking :P na jk, thanks for the kind words. Yes the ef4 is a little larger then the black but with all said and done, being this is the first version of the ef4 and being a beta tester for it I'm impressed by what I am making on a stock block, can't wait for the 2.4
fyi dont let friends or so called friends drive your car..
good work again.. Tom

Thanks, I know Tom did a real good job after we started to make power pulls. I know he prob thought the same thing the car just wanted more and more but it did have a bottle neck in it after a while tring to keep the tq down hahaha. All in all car feels real good and I'm pretty happy with it. The goal was 600/400 but with everything we had to do to get it this far I can't complain with where its at it is def close enough. Once he started with the power pulls we are at now i knew it wasn't gonna be possible due to the more boost we run and getting the timing where it needed to be that it was gonna make more tq at the level its at and not as much power so like I said I'm pretty happy with it

JUST what I was looking for man, thanks a lot ! I have been thinking about upgrading to an ef4 with my stock block but couldnt decide because I havent seen any dyno graphs with that setup. NOW I know FOR SURE that I'm going to save up and send my 9 turbo for the ef4 upgrade. Looks like your car is a BLAST to drive seeing the graph lol. Congrats.
yea just be careful. enjoy what you have now. My stock motor wasnt happy with 430-450wtq n popped. now im rebuilding you would be amazed how sh*tty the stock rod bolts, and how small the stock rods are compaired to I-Beams. I think i might of had a fuel problem tho being to lean. The Full Blown System is kind of goofy to install n i think the one pump isnt working 100% correctly will find that out soon tho when it is running again

That said -- you really cant go lean with one of my sd basemaps, the ve is jacked up downlow and the fuel maps rich and the calibration mapping is close to 1:1 so its always gonna be richer. even if you ran on 1 pump it wouldnt run lean.. i have a customer who had his hobb malfunction and he kept running on 1 pump.. car went lean uptop sure, but not really much downlow at pk tq.. cause of the way the car was tuned..
either way car is being refreshed and will be hauling *** again soon so no worries. your problem was your engine was exhausted and was only hanging on by a limb.. which is most likely why they dumped the car.
Thanks man, yes the car is alot of fun and honestly the way Tom has it tuned the power kinda sneeks up on ya. Being the tq is set up later in the rpm you know its gonna be there, but not like it use to be. Before you could feel it spool and BAM! car takes off like mad. Made it kinda hard to drive being just a huge jolt of power. Now you know its there and are waiting for it, and waiting for it, but the transisition its nice and smooth and just feels like the car pulls and pulls and pulls. I am sure once you get an EF4 I am sure you will have a smile from ear to ear like I do now and makes the car a ton of fun to drive.
That said -- your car should be fine for a long time even with the tq where it is. cant wait to see what it does with Scott in it.
The evo rods are the same as the dsm 2g rods. I am aware of what they are and how weak they can be. It sucked your car popped like that and yeah fueling will do that
. I know I will go with a 2.4 setup myself when the funds are more available to me. I am hopeing this setup will last me a little while till I can go back to work and get some money put away again. I don't beat on the car all that much. Usually only rev to like 7k tops as it is. I am sure it will be fine. Also make sure you put a Hobbs switch in that Full Blown setup of yours. I know 2 pumps running at the same time led to basically one melting in my talon a few years back. Thankfully I was in the parking lot at the shootout idleing or that could have been bad.
I'll install a hobb switch for him.. are you saying when you run 2 pumps at once side by side that close they get excessively hot or what?
He has a aftermarket FPR right now.

this is the first one at the shootout 2 or 3 years ago.

this is after I bought 2 new pumps after I got back home within 3 days of each other.

the pumps will get extemely hot if they are run both at the same time. That and the fact even setup with 2 totally different circuits after rewire this is what happens. I am smart enough (although some may not believe it) to know that the amps that is being drawn from the 2 pumps at a time is way more then the power the wire is capable of. I had 1 relay 2 separate circuits and thats what happened. Only thing I can think of that happened was I had power drawn off the same spot and grounded at the same location on the car.
