-zol</TD></TR></TABLE>no conversion kit needed just as long as its tuned for it and you have enough of an injector to handle your power level.the conversion kit is for stock gas vehicles that want to switch to e85

 

E85 is the shiznit.........

 

congrats on your numbers....how well does your car idle with the 1600s

jeff must really like the neptune system, alot of the cars he tunes and posts dyno graphs of are tuned on neptune......i believe this vehicle in this thread is tuned on neptune as well...

 

Do you have any more info on these injectors? I've tuned a bunch of different sets and they all seem hit or miss...

So they have E85? If you can confirm I'll take a ride out there and see what's up...

 

Nice numbers!

 

Nice numbers, normally the injectors doesn't last that long, specially with that duty.
how tough did you set the ignition, 21-22deg or?

We have been running e85 for like three years in sweden now and it works great. here you can also buy special ethanol for race purpose. then you know what you get...

Somehow I missed this earlier... that's impressive. what injector? what displacement is your engine, and what engine management? mild duration cam?

 

well went the track and bad luck struck again.
first pass on a brand new set of 24.5 9 x13 mickeys car went 10.8 at 133 but noticed the second stage on the boost controller was staying on-not sure why yet but to much power car spun real bad.
second pass lowered tire tire pressure to 6.5psi and on launch car seemed to hook hard but on the 1st to 2nd shift ring and pinion took a ****.
conclusion trans is back out.takin a new ring and pinion to racerstev for treatment so it mite be a week or so for some better times.

 

update.
went to the track last night since retune and got some good runs in after repairing that trans(thanx racersteve for the treating)did a easy pass 8.5psi in the tires and car went 10.7 at 140mph.then lowered the tires to 6.5psi and ran its best pass 10.37 at 140.third and last pass went 10.4 ant 141 on a 2nd gear bog when shifted.
all in all the car seems to be running real good
heres a the 10.3 time
60ft 1.68
330 4.61
1/8 6.85 at 111.27mph
1000 8.765
1/4 10.37 at 140.59
and the neptune was acting up to control the boost controler so i hooked them all to the horn to activate,some more seat time and should get better its only the third pass since retuning

******* sweet! what kind of boost controller you running? NLR-AMS1000?

 

thats awesome bart !

 

Were you at full boost at the track? 700whp should definetly net you more than 140mph traps.
