We took a reference from the wide band oxygen sensor and found that the air fuel mixture was vey rich as we boosted higher and as the RPM increased. using Aviation gas did not completely sort out the problem and therefore we had to use the SAFC to fool the computer and lean the mixture out.

While testing the night before we ran about 22 to 23 psi. But since we had so many problems (which have been detiled in my earlier post) we decided to only run 18Psi for the drag. Trust me guys this car is cpable of late 10's early 11's. next time we will be prepared - Thats a promise.

Hey Jaggu the Drag strip had an upward slope.

LIVE HARD, DIE SIDEWAYS !!!

Hey man,

Thanks a lot for consistently and extensively answering my queries.
RM35k for the ENTIRE kit?? ie including engine & drivetrain? thats a great deal!!!! isnt it? (converts to 4L INR + duty)

Wow, 18psi is still pretty impressive... and thanks for the tidbit on the fuel mix problem, interesting to see how u fixed that.

Actually, it would be the opposite, theoretically. IMO
