Finally got my car dyno tuned!

Snakeman · 12-05-2002, 06:06 PM

i've been off the boards for awhile, true enough!
i was hangin' at another site for awhile while waiting to get the cobra in shape. Now she's tuned and ready to ROCK!

I do feel a big difference!

I can run 91 octane without detonation!
i lost some torque down low with the (550+HP) accufab t/b

so i'll be needing to up the boost or add some N2O to compensate

the idle is (almost) perfect!

My wife put in some 118 octane and most likely killed the O2 sensors, so when i put in the new ones, it should be perfect. it dies sometimes now.

I will be taking her to the track on Saturday, so my numbers should change slightly if i can get her to hook!

The SHM 575 bottoom end spins to 7500 rpm, whether it is worth it to wind it up that far remains to be seen, it looks like the torque falls off too much before then...

some minor intake mods (short-runner intake/intercooler/power pipe should get me to the power level i'd like...

I really think a 150 shot of nitrous might actually be the best way to build the torque curve up a bit
