ive already explained that any issues with the car will be taken care of this off season, maybe it just so happens that my car just sucks.

i dont mean to make you worried, the car doesnt really have any issues other than the intake that seems to be choking it up. and it seems to be about 50hp down compared to a few others ive seen which i honestly think is the cams being off but all that will be sorted out. im just driving it around and having fun now. for your build more compression would be the way to go and would really make the car rock out.

F1A + 23psi + 100 Octane should equal 800rwhp.

Not everyone runs more timing to take advantage of higher octane fuel. A lot of people with stock motors just run 100octane as a measure of safety.

Anyways, I say you tune that son of a bitch on e85. :coolman: Good kill, even though you're making a good deal more power pulling away from a well setup h/c/i car is never an easy feat.

if e85 were in my area id do it for sure, but there are only two pumps within 20 miles from my house. once i build a motor with more compression ill switch to e85 cuz itll be cheaper than c16 or anything else

OP not trying to be a rude or anything I am honestly curious, you can PM if you want to talk about it, but why did you go to a F1A procharger setup over TS? Thanks for the info! :beer:
