That would mean the wheel is 16", i've been told that the smallest wheel you can put on the rear is a 18" so that it clears the caliper. Can the FI team confirm please?

Correct-o-mundo! A 16" rim will clear the "Base" brakes. If you are running the Sport brakes the smallest you are going to run is an 18" rim. A Street/Drag Radial in 18" is pretty much worthless at this power level. Regardless of how soft the compound is there is not enough sidewall to create a wrinkle/flex and grab traction.

On our 1,000+ HP Mustangs we run a 15" rim in the rear with a 28"x10.5" slick.

Hope this clears it up for those who are asking.

Tony

Right lol. I was talking about the width of the wheel and offsets.

Don't care about offsets. Just interested in the 16" drag tire/wheel combo.

Update,

Called the night early rain is coming down hard and its cold. The fuel pressure is still dropping but stabilizing around 42 psi at the top of the run. Definitely not ideal but we are working in the right direction. We were able to clean the air/fuel up somewhat from last time and get the car to take more timing. Final results for tonight:

546 RWH / 457 RWT backed up by 540/454 and a handful of runs slightly below that.

91 Octane (Pump)
10.03 PSI
Full open FI 2.5" exhaust

Below is a dyno chart from tonight with the best run from February 7th attached to it as well. That run is Run #7. As you can see there is a substantial gain tonight over the run from 2/7. By getting the fuel pressure to stabilize up top it is allowing us to add about 4-5 additional degrees of timing with absolutely zero detonation. Our tuner Sebastian@SpecialtyZ wears a set of special head phones that are directly plugged into the ECU. He can detect the slightest bit of detonation when it occurs. The timing is still fairly conservative at 18 degrees on 91 Octane. In addition now that we have the electronic boost controller wired in it is giving us full adjustability to regulate boost and wastegate spring pressure. This is helping the torque out quite a bit.

It is a safe bet to say we are pretty much finished on the 2.5" exhaust system. First thing tomorrow morning we are going to play with a few things in the fuel system. Basically try to get the fuel pressure to stabilize at a higher psi. We will also switch over to the full open 3" FI exhaust.

Stay tuned...




Thank you, Tony
