[QUOTE="svo/svt, post: 14771947, member: 108015"] Here's the email I sent Aed and his advice. He recommends a piston change. I can switch pistons if I have to as i can afford to run race gas every day. I have a 99 cobra. I'm plaining on bringing you my cobra for a tune but I live 8 hours north and I'm hoping you could look over my setup so I can address any problems before I bring my car. You sent me a tune to get the car running with a return style fuel system a few years ago and Ive just got the car finished. My setup Engine mmr 5.0 stroker with 11cc dished Pistons, arp head studs, stock heads and intake manifold Supercharger Whipple 2.3 with single blade throttle body. I have 2 pulleys 3.5" and 3" with a stock lower. It has a large heat exchanger also. Intake Stock intake tune and stock maf in a 100mm housing with a large open filter. I have a mafia if needed. Fuel Return style fuel system with twin 255lph pumps and 60lb Siemens injectors. Exhaust Long tubes with off road x and borla stingers. Ecu Sct xcal3 and a dyno jet wideband. If you have any concerns please let me know. My main goal its to get 600hp. I'm not appose to doing a race gas tune if needed but I'm unsure as to what octane to use. Thanks for your time Dennis. Dennis, Your compression is too high for a pump gas tune. Shaun AED Thanks for the response. Any recommendations as to which octane to buy. 100,104,110? Will there be anyway to have a street tune to work with pump gas if I run a stock whipple upper? Thanks. Given the compression ratio of this new engine there is no way for me to give you a *safe* tune to run on pump gas. You cannot lower boost enough with this blower application. Shaun AED Would 100 unleaded be a high enough octane? Would you recommend switching the Pistons out for 18cc ones? 18-20cc dish would be acceptable, or 100 octane unleaded would be fine with the current pistons. There are a few variations on 100 octane however, some are far better than others, but all will be OK for this application. Shaun AED [/QUOTE]
