Default O YEA!

well i drove her tonight, and boy does it pull decent for no tune.
i got base timing at 11 w/ 93 octane, aode,10.3:1CR, 331,sn95, 3.27's, eddy rpm heads, rpm2 intake, and xe270hr-114 cam. with FP set at 40 with vac on, 45 without, and 30lb injectors, i still run in the 13.5-14.0 a/f range. it took it to 70, on a short road, it got there pretty quick for it shifting itself at 5k. with a tune, i know i will be rather happy im happy now, after all the bugs i have worked through, or bugs that i thought were there lol its finally a near properly running car.
i had timing set at like 6degrees b/c all i had was some 87 octane (working bugs out and thats all i had handy) and didnt want to detonate it. well it was making the headers glow like a honda with a 100psi turbo. after adding fuel pressure and no prevail, used the octane i need (will tune for 89 octane eventually...damn gas is high) and set the timing right, and shes doing good so far. YAY! [8D] [8D]
