Yeah, it's a lot of fun.

I'd really like to get to a nice even 500 rwhp though. I'm just hoping it's not going to take a Motec priced standalone management system.

Oh yeah, pulls were done with clamshell down, no external fans providing cool air to engine, intake, or intercooler. My intercooler does have two Zirgo 8" fans (1000 cfm's each) cooling it, and providing some airflow to the pair if intakes.

Have you considered the new Greddy E-Manage Ultimate system? I'd say a Microtech, but that's probably about the same as a Motec. Awesome Numbers and awesome pics. I've seen the ones you took from doing the build up, looks like one hell of a sweet setup. Keep it up.

You need a new fuel pump I think. You aren't using a booster pump are you?

To be sure you could check fuel pressure at high rpms to see if it is falling. Returnless use a focus SVT pump, return use the trusty walbro 255(GSS 342). I put down 388 on my 2.5 duratec with fuel to spare. Suneil did 402 with the same set up and still had fuel left. Both cars had 42lb injectors.

Great, thanks for the suggestions. I'll check into that. Shouldn't be that hard to get to.



How loud is the Walbro? If I'm going to replace my pump, I'd ideally like to get something quiet.
