boost and blown engine?

ORIGINAL: avlon06could some one explain the AF ration i am a little confused about it..
Here is another way to look at it. The Talon turbo's came stock with a 9.5:1 preprogrammed in at WOT, a very rich and conservative AFR. Guys with all of the supporting mods will run race fuel and a 12.5:1 AFR making much more power. A Honda is a ricer. A DSM is not. www.dsmtimes.org those are 1/4 mile times and trap speeds though they give 1/8 mile times also. Some of the 1/8 mile times are quicker than my 1/4 mile time with my Mustang! Get your stang dyno tuned with the tuner that the shop uses or whatever tuner you have and they will extract more power from the motor by leaning it out at WOT but you must use a specific octane rating. I have 100 unleaded available year round here in central NY.

Cop here in the city had an 02 GT with a 10 psi vortech and nitrous... ran it hard all the time and sprayed constantly and the motor lasted a year... that seems pretty good in my opinion...

Well, my thinking is....do the bottom end and you will have a ROCK SOLID foundation for any future mods. BELIEVE me, you will say, "Awww, 9psi is plenty for me". But, it's never enough. Once you get comfortable with the 9psi, your car will feel slow again and you will want more. Just my .02

i definitely gotta go with the guys up top....build ur bottom end, then focus on future mods. IMO its the smartest thing to do. temptation is a bitch, and it can drag u down if u let it. but have fun either way. peace
