ive been to the track a few times this year but all 1/8th mile, i am going to Bowling Green 1/4 mile this weekend for some test n tune...first time at track really with scanmaster so i can actually tune a little while there. I have the TT adjustable chip, adjustable fuel regulator, stock turbo, downpipe, 50# injectors, walbro fuel pump with direct wire...and all else is stock i believe.
i will have 110 fuel in it, boost probably on 19-20 to start. All my scanmaster readings for chip is on default, my wot fuel, only adjustment i have made is i bumped timing up 3 degrees in 1st and 2cnd and it seemed to help a bunch seat of the pants and 60ft....my fuel pressure is on 44 with vac off running.
so what are the basics here? how do i know which way to go with timing? fuel? what is a general rule of tuning? since i have 110 octane and i have cranked the boost up do i need more timing all thru wot? do i need to add fuel% also all way thru? or just first and second? or top end?
i have ran some 8.20's in 1/8 before tuning on 18lbs of boost with 110 and et streets...so im hoping for some 7's 1/8 then whatever that equates to in 1/4.
so any "general tuning" parameters i should start with? is it like old school kinda tuning, you put good gas in, can run more timing, and add fuel pressure? or is it totally different with these turbo cars?:tongue:

and im getting a little knock in 3rd gear...about 4-5 so not good, but i had some 93 octane mixed in there for a bit. so if im going to turn boost up i probably need to back off my timing in high gear eh? or more fuel, but its already feeling like its not pulling that hard in top gear maybe its too fat already at 10%....but still knocking. well see tomorrow at track once i get all 110 in there and get my knock back down. oh by the way i put in a new 02 sensor and walla my mv or around 800+ now...thank goodness. i was gettin worried seeing 390ish all the time....
