I do have to admit that I wimped out today and ran with more retard than I should have done. I should have set 32 degree's but I set it to 25 degree's. This is still 6 more degree''s of timing than I have been using on track though
I'll grow a pair soon and run on track with more advance. But you cant blame me for being cautious after the last years drama's and expense eh?
I did do a pull on boost only with the timing set at 28 degree's and she made 383hp with 495 ft/lbs with 11psi.
Then I took 3 more degree's out and stuck a 175 shot of nitrous in.
That gave the figures you can see on the attached sheet. I'm more than happy to finish this year in the 500's to be honest.

Thanks guys!
I'm very pleased with the results for sure
It makes me think that next year with some more tweaks it could be 550hp and 9.5's on the drag strip ??
