Well it dynoed 350 rwhp/ 291 ft tq with 7psi
this set up is:
ssv intake manifold,9psi pulley,440cc injector,walbro pump,utec management
I hope to see 400 rwhp/320 ft tq
long time no talk to
Decent numbers, kinda surprised @ the tq tho - expected it to be higher...
What else is gonna get you to 400? I'm aiming for 420-440 on my M3 after it gets a blower this summer
Well yeah -- long time.

How's married life treating you?
So anyone have ideas as to why it isn't idling?
It just dies on me as soon as i start it, but if i keep giving it gas then it is alright.
Anyone available friday to help out, i'm sure i can get beer if thats what it takes...lol

That is why alot of people go turbo but I like the blower because it is super simple and can be taken off in 5-6 hours and you would never know. Also it pulls harder and harder the higher the rpm and you will NEVER overboost and break a motor

But yeah that's also why I'm choosing a blower rather than a turbo for the M3.
Can't complain about life - all good so far.

I have had it running for five minutes, giving it gas the entire time, and then it still shut off after that
I have no clue where to start now
