The PT62 was at only 25psi at peak HP.

Unfortunatly we won't know what it would have done with more fuel as the turbo kit is off the car and back to a green.

I dont blame you guys for liking the stock appearing turbos there in Cali kinda keeps you under the radar. More fuel and 28-30 PSI he'd would have had a 500hp beast no doubt

Razor,

Any cold start idle issues E85? If you've figured this out, really like for you to look at my E85 tune. Please pm if so.

More than willing to compensate for your time.

Thanks,

Jay

Yup, you want to increase cranking IPW at those colder coolant temps. This is the same thing that the "E85 conversion kits with cold start" do.

Dang Bryan, looks like you need to get a credit card that builds up flyers miles and start traveling the country... Just make sure you come back... It would suck to travel even farther then I already do for you to tune my car.

E85 is awesome. on my IX I made 400/400 with the stock turbo and with the basic supporting mods + cams. Looking to make even more with my new turbo.

E85 has a motor octane rating of around 105 which allows for some nice boost (im currently at 29psi), the only downside is that it uses a lot more fuel, about 23.08% for me. No biggy though, as I gained 50whp and tq just by switching.

Are the map switching capabilities with or without a Tactrix cable?

Looks like 450whp is about the flow limit of the single walbro pump given that you have enough injector on the hippy juice?

Without I'm sure. Tephras mod option allows for map switching using either a patch harness or for the 03/04 the Intercooler Sprayer Switch.

Knew it was good for something

Without, no laptop needed for map switching. Tephra mod with map switching harness.
