Doh, did what i did, should have done the 3.12 right off the hop.
What size injectors you going with. I dont think you can scale back
anything bigger than 380's, but booger would know more. I think
you have to adjust fuel cells in the vacuum side so you dont run
rough and rich.

That dip in pw up top is wierd. I too have it for my vortech dyno. What gear did u dyno it and at wat psi? If u are thinking about upgrading to the 3.12 pulley, u wont need the 440cc. U can stay with 380cc and u wont have to reflash the ecu bc there's no way u are going to make over 400hp with the 3.12 pulley.
hmmm, looks funny. Did they give you the boost levels you made you power at? You should be able to see your A/F too, so you can see how much power is being made from 1 to 8 psi. I think you're not getting a full 8 psi. The newer belts tend to slip more. I made 340 rwhp on a DD with 8 psi and Crawford Cast with a very conservative tune. I had 79k miles when I installed the SC.

Well my Walbro 255 just came in, Pulley is on its way, so by next week she will be getting everything on and dynoed again. And she is pulling just beautifully right now, I am very very pleased.
