Looks like I have it under control for the moment. It was a combination of maxing the 'spark hardware latency' setting to 170 uSec, and reducing the 'maximum spark time' setting from 2.0 to 1.5 mSec. I think it would be wise for me to start looking towards a FASST of Big Stuff 3 for a more...- 87TurboIroc

Looks like my issue is with spark latency at higher rpm than idle. I bought a fancy digital timing light and discovered the following: 850 rpm - spark matches table 3000 rpm - spark timing error of -5 degrees 5000 rpm - spark timing error of -9 degrees This confirms what many have...- 87TurboIroc

This is great info.. and I see your point with the aftermarket distributor, as I can adjust the pickup position separate from rotor. The spark needs the shortest gap in the mid 20's advance since that's where it will be when the spark has the hardest job to do. I do not have any idea where...- 87TurboIroc

For my fun, I decided I would 'assume' that the timing in the MS was higher than what was actually happening at...- 87TurboIroc

Regulator is boost referenced stock TPI fuel rail style. Rises 1:1 with boost. I originally thought I was having a low fuel pressure problem but narrowed it down to a sensor on my digital gauge. No signs of fuel pressure loss in boost since going to the 340 pump. Timing is controlled by the...- 87TurboIroc

I'm down in Panama City FL.. DonWG I will confess to not having ever used that. Pretty easy to get to everything except the two under the turbo. What kind of wire diameter are you guys running? I should be able to reach my 500 rwhp goal at 16-18 psi, which is why I didn't go too crazy on...- 87TurboIroc

Hi Everyone, I appreciate the effort everyone is making to help. I'm going to say up front that I'm at the end of my rope with this project and about to give up. So with that in mind, please forgive me in advance if I seem snippy in any way. I'm really just worn out with the whole...- 87TurboIroc
