Played with a Mach this AM
That GTP held in there nicely. I bet he surprises a lot of people with that Pontiac, lol. I'm definitely switching over to E85. I'm just trying to get a little more info about which way is the best way to do it. As of now, I'm running 60lb injectors and a 2.8" pulley. It would be nice to get away with not having to change those two components, but I'm afraid the 60s will fall short. PD suggested I run 80s and a 2.7 for the best gains. I'm a bit concerned about pushing the M62 out of its efficiency range by spinning it that high. I know torque goes up, as well as peak power, but power also drops off at a lower RPM (I think). I believe a 2.7 may still be the best route however. The main concern with small pulleys isn't necessarily the powerband, but the heat they produce. Thats where the E85 has another plus, it burns much cooler. So no meth, dual pass, bigger heat exchanger (than the one I have), etc, is needed to run a 2.7.... I think I just talked myself into going with a 2.7 and 80s, lol.
and yes, that grand prix pisses many many people off.
yeah i know surprised the hell outta me. i dont like looking right next to me and seeing a grand prix when i'm floored lol. right after i got my n2o kit he ended up getting one too. just couldn't shake him lol.
I'd love to run you sometime. From a dig, you would crush me. My best chance against you would be from a higher roll, at least 45-50 mph judging by your 1/8th mile trap. I only trap 80 mph in the 1/8th, but pick up a lot between there and the 1/4... typical FWD crap, lol.
I didn't think we had E85 stations in my area either until I did some googling. Just type in "E85 stations" and click on one of the locaters. It surprised me how many were around.

boduke, have any 1/4 traps?
Stone, When are you going on the E set-up? I'm curious to see how it runs. 2.7 and a Blueberry tune and you shouldn't have a problem hitting 290whp considering he did it on a 2.7 and meth.

Going to order the parts this week... then I'll have to track down Blue. I can't wait to get it done and see how it does.
