Missy took the cake with her 999 torques even if on the same run she only pulled 130 HP.

SSV opens at 3000

APV opens at 6250

VDI opens at 7250

Its your APV, its more the fact that you have a **** ton more air coming in due to how much larger the ports are compared to stock.

If you look at the afr reading at 6200 its heading down to 10.3 then takes a spike back up to 12.2 as soon as it opens.

Kane should be able to shed some more light.

right so if I am going rich prior to the APV then when the APV opens it will lean out. I am going to finish my bank 2 & 3 today and if I get frisky I will pull my UIM and swap the solenoids that are on low circuit

sweet, I was going to take some and then the sun showed up and I started feeling like crap on top of that, I did manage to get a nice shot of some of the SARX peeps lined up for the dyno though.

Harris Hill Dyno Numbers
Heres mynumbers from the Dyno..They ran mine off of speed and not the RPMS, the needle would not stop jumping. Definately taking it to JMS Racing to put her on their DYNO and see what the differences are..

The dyno, much like a paternity test, never lies and always lets you down.

Here's my graph from the dyno day at JMS Racing yesterday. I think with a change of plugs, wires, and coils it can pick up a few ponies. They haven't been changed since I got the car.
