Maybe..I'm NOT sure what broken in my tune but that may explain why I can't run that 11.
12.1 lbs Boost
15* WOT on 93
17* WOT on 109
109 make the car run lean so I may need to add more fuel when running it. (that may be the issue???)
I am going to try 100 and see if I can crank it past 17* with the SAME tune.

I wouldn't think race gas would have any affect on the AFR, but maybe I'm crazy. I ran 22 degrees on 110 race gas with no KR at all.

Was that Leaded gas? I always try to use unleaded. Maybe I just need to throw in some 116 leaded and crank it up.

race gas will almost always be richer... switching to the cam2/turbo blue 110 leaded will always add 7% fuel over E10 93 octane.

The people who "pick up pieces" are the ones who make the most power on nitrous. To know how much N20 you can put to a motor you have to be financially prepared to blow up the engine and build a new one. The nitrous experienced ones at the dragstrip will repeat the line "pill it till you kill it, then back down one".

sorry, not anymore.. with wideband o2 and data logging and real time a/f maps.. there is no reason to "pill it till ya kill it" unless you got money to burn..
