    Say you have an engine.... ANY "street type" engine. Once a competant tuner tweeks the fueling and spark at each load point on a dyno (the only 2 paramaters there are), no one in the WORLD will get more power out of the tune-up. AND NO mail order chip on the planet will make as much power...

    Skip the chip till you can come down and have it dyno tuned. Mail order guessing is a waste of time, especially on a modified car like yours. I have dyno tested about a zillion "chips" from various venders, and the results are almost always garbage. Real time on the dyno is the only...

    Not possible. Mustang Shop also uses SCT, and tune on the dyno. Cant beat that with a mail order chip.

    OT: Just saw Farenheit 9/11!!! WOW!!!

    MOORE ROCKS! And for you who actually BELIEVE he made factual errors, think again. Had he said ANYTHING untrue, he would be sued for all the burgers at Macdonalds ;) His facts are 100% in order and accurate. His presentation of the facts is of course sauced up.... the movie needs humour...

    Timing vs. AFR

    There really is not good rule.... for a given timing, there MAY WELL BE a more appropriate AFR. For instance, on a NA motor, 2 degrees timing wont have any impact on the afr that is "there", but 2 degrees timing may make more power with more or less fuel. Make sense? On SC motors where 2...

    Pre Detonation?!!!?!?!!

    you had holes blown through the gasket? huh? Pre detonation?? LOL, it's either detonating, or its not,no such thing as "pre" detonation. Typically, the gasket will be blown out either between 2 adjacent cylinders a the thinnest part, ot between the cylinder and a water passage. Get a...

    A few simple questions...

    Yes, 14 - 18 degrees for premium gas. Power steering...you can do it that way, just loop the lines and make sure there is oil in the rack. It will be a bitch to steer with fat tires though. I would find a manual rack in an early Mustang though and swap it in.

    should i try this with speed density?

    Sure it can work. YOu need to keep in mind that to optimize your combo, you will somehow need to give the car the added fuel it needs for that added air flow. The computer has not way of seeing this added air in SD mode. So, you can up the fuel pressure and disconnect the 02's, which will...

    what demon carb for my setup?

    IMHO, BG's blow. For cam with stockish heads, go with the Comp cams Magnum 280 or 281.

    What Jet size with a dry shot of nitrous?

    Nope. PLate carb kits use 2 spray bars.... thin tubes with holes drilled in them.

    What Jet size with a dry shot of nitrous?

    COnverting your wet kit to dry would be a PITA. Besides adding nitrou, a dry kit has a regulated NOS feed to the fuel pressure regulator to up fuel pressure when on (that is what supplements fuel on a "dry kit"). Dry kits suck IMHO. Convert your carb kit to a EFI kit. All you need is a...

    fuel injection opinions or ideas welcome!!

    outdated, limited, too expensive compared to "real" Aussie EFI systems.
