It runs great, I haven't really gotten on it much though. I'm going to wait until I can get the Walbro pump in, until I give it a few good runs. But man does my exhaust note change when I get up to around 3000 rpms . I need to get a vac/boost gauge and a wide band on it as soon as I can afford it.
I would look into getting a tune before running ***** to the walls. You need to know where your a/f ratio is.

A tune around here is about 500-600 dollars and 2 + hours away, I'd rather get a wideband and do it myself.

All the wide band will do is tell you your A/F ratio...how do you plan on adjusting your fuel tables without a tune?

Money and time well spent not blowing up your motor. G/L

do what yourself? without an ems to go with that wide band you cant tune the car. and no, you cant tune it with base timing and fuel pressure.

I can get a tweecer R/T for 500 dollars. Besides the fact I'm running a 93 cobra water pump pulley and I've still got my underdriven crank pulley on there, it's not producing that much boost. It'll be fine for now. I've got my timing locked at 20 degrees, no advance. Should I drop it down to like 9 or 10 and put the spout connector back in?

We have been tuning our SC Fox bodies with just fuel pressure and timing for years. We had 2 making over 550 RWHP with stock computer and no chip.

With no boost retard, we run ours at 10 initial timing with 93 octane. But, you sure need to check the A/F before you ruin it.
