Thread: not making the power

Ah ok, so 11.5-11.9 is considered safe? Ive been told the power diff between high tens and high elevens is minor, but then others like yourself say power drops sharp if too rich. But yeah it pulls alot better in second with the 11.3. Ive kept it rich for safetys sake buf if its costing me power, then i guess i should man up and lean it out a bit. It was faster with 1.9 rockers then it is now with the s2.
Ive looked at the pe vs rpm.vs time modifier, but never payed it much attention as its already zeroed for the initial 8 seconds, i guess this was done in the original base that was made for me. You guys seem to get alot more timing into your setups then us aussies, even though our fuel is bettet, guess your blowers are more efficient without the ubend to restrict them.
