Got the stereo moved and switches allowing me to fab up a screen mount that won’t take me knee cap off and allows me to see it well.

Down fall is that I programmed Tunerstudio to start automatically and I can’t seem to get to the desktop to load my project and dash board I built.

I have some time hope to get the Td04-9b on tonight and maybe some 880cc injectors and flex fuel this weekend. We will see.

Those are big injectors! I have 850's and the most i think i ever saw was 65% duty cycle. That was on 30 psi of boost and E85. I don't remember where they were with the new engine.

Um.... doubtful. I need to get my rear cage modified and back on to hang the holset. I need to weld up all the exhaust and intake plumbing between the two. And buy silicone adapters for all that as well.

Unless I just use the 9b and 13t compound combo then it’s a lot less BS. Now I need to do some research.


Oh and Buguy I was wrong they are 850cc. I hope to see 35-40 psi with the compound set up.

I thought that maybe that was your plan for the immediate future. Might not be enough difference between the two to really benefit though.

I bounce back and forth on what the plan is. Good thing I’m in charge.

What rpm are you getting boost with the 13t?
And aren't you running stock rods?!

I start building around 2200-2300 but it’s always building I never hit a boost level.

And yes stock everything.

That's how mine was too. It seemed that i would run out of rpm before it stopped making boost. Most i think i ever saw was just over 31 psi.
If you hit 40 psi on stock stuff you will be my new hero!

The compound set up will push a ton! 40 is the low end for what I’m building. To keep things at peak efficiency I need like 48-50.

But I’m hoping to be up and running with it and e85 in a few weeks. But probably first of the year.

Are you going to put a ratchet strap around it to keep the heads from pushing off?!

I’m thinking I’ll just tack them onto the cylinders or JB weld.

Honestly I plan to add good studs to it so the heads stay on.... for a bit.
