Finally a full pull - congrats so far! Can't wait to see what you end up with!

Good luck Brother.

BTW that look a lot better

I agree, I blew enough oil out of my vent plug at my last track day to run low and cook a bearing in the Supercharger. Bad design, but working on a solution to that plug.

Only to 6,500, we have more to go but didn't like the AFRs being over 13.

At least it's an encouraging sign that the engine is getting more air than the tune was expecting!

JWillis72 · 01-08-2016, 05:46 PM

Tuner just looked at the log and says it looks way better. He is sending a new flash but this probably will be slow, he has cars he's working on at his shop. He is also coming down in two weeks so if we can get it working we can do so fine tuning while he is here.

Is the tuner Seb?

JWillis72 · 01-08-2016, 05:57 PM

No, it's still the guy that started on it. We talked to Seb and would love him to tune the car but the car seem to have so many other problems we stayed with the original tuner. While I was very frustrated with his attitude early on he hasn't quit on us through this mess so I can't quit on him.

Something still isn't right, he worked on the AFR but it's still not making enough boost.

Pressure test the system. Cap off the engine side with a PVC cap that will fit the diameter. Do the same at the supercharger side and tap a whole for an air-chuck fitting. Test away with compressed air if you haven't done it before.

JWillis72 · 01-08-2016, 08:49 PM

We have, we are thinking it might be the headers now.

It's been mention before in the forum that headers lower boost pressure with the Stillen SC. By how much, I don't know.

I agree and know that but I changed the sc pulley that should add 2-3psi and the impeller should add 15%. I can't imagine it not making mare than the 8 psi it did before.
