I wonder how much I'll be making with 90 oct./10 psi and intercooled and with an auto (20% drivetrain loss)

if it's gonna be 420ish whp, I might as well opt for an M90/500hp kit. I wanted at least 450-460 on 90 octane with cams and intercooled.

I thought the M90 kit puts out 435HP at the crank on a stock car?

I believe on a manual trans car, it'll be right around 370ish whp with the Roush 5 psi tune. I make that non-intercooled with my V3 but it's "peaky" rather than flat torque curve like the roots...

I think I'll be making right around 420whp once I go intercooled on the V3..

Vortech V3 HO I believe is 462 HP at the crank on a stock car.

Most of the tuning on those kits are done on 93 octane and manual trans cars.

I think I was making only 350ish whp with the non-intercooled. No dyno, no 93 oct. gas up here I may be making less than the 420 I am estimating with the H.O upgrade. (WTF?!)

Brenspeed sent me the revised tunes yesterday. Took them about 3 days to respond, but I guess they must have been busy at the time.

All the dynos near my area have had a steady influx of ricer douchebags tuning their puny 4bangers for hours at a time, so I haven't had a chance to pull a new graph yet. I have stepped on it a few times, and noticed a more acceptable 10.8 - 11.2 A/F reading; although, it's kinda hard keeping an eye on the gauges while reaching 100mph in less than 6 seconds.

On a side note, I took the time to order an oil separator. I've been noticing some rougher cold starts lately, which I attribute to the increased blowby oil that now passes through the manifold and drips into the cylinder heads overnight. I hope it works.

Brenspeed has a solid reputation, pretty sure they'll have your tune all taken care of.

I am upgrading to the SL2200 head unit possibly when I go forged.. the v3 is only good for 550-560whp "only" lol
