I suspect you'll be close...I'd go with twin pumps just in case...it sure would stink to have to halt the tuning process and do it again at a later date |
FWIW, on E-85, the general rule of thumb seems to be a max of 450whp on the single Walbro. For me, I started running out of fuel around 32psi on the Red (stock 2.0L, FP4R cams, 1250cc injectors). With the 2nd pump in and the fuel map unchanged (a fuel map that was compensating for the lack of fuel at higher RPM), I went from 12.2 to 10.2 A/F ratio in the upper RPMs.

just got a text from Brandon "I averaged 18.5mpg cruising at 3500 rpms with a couple of WOT tunnel passes (couldn't help myself), so not too bad!"
this is a full weight IX 6-speed for what it's worth.

Hey Chris what do you think the WHP would be if it was 93 plus meth with the Red? This will be what I will be running next spring. Hopefully tuned by you

You have E85 all around your area, so why not just go with that and not have to worry about a meth setup? I've recently switched and have tuned myself and will never go back.

I agree, if you have e85, don't do meth, there's no reason to take the risk and you'll have the power all of the time without having to worry about meth failures.

I know how you feel, it's 1.5 hours away from me but it's still cheaper to go get a drum occasionally at 2.00 a gal there than getting q16 for 15.00 a gal locally.
