let see some 1/4 mile times... that kinda power, 3500lbs car.... i would say.... low 13's... MAYBEEEEE high 12's if you can drive your car right, which im sure you can... but high 12's takes alot of power and GOOD 0-60'

I actually have faith that he will push it for everything it's worth. More than enough power for 12s, just got to get up the nerve to put some tire on it and risk breaking stuff.

your kidding me, right?? how in gods name is your a/f anywhere near good? up to 4500rpm is marginal, but after that?!? do yourself a favor and reinstall your stock size pulley (4-5psi) and give your engine a fighting chance until you address the things that need to be done. from vtec engagment to redline is BEYOND lean while spiking at 14flat at 6000prm O.o thats even to lean for a built NA motor.

i dont care if your running a meth kit. theres gotta be some sort of pinging/detonation going on in their somewhere, your just not hearing. yes we have a knock sensor, but that can only do so much. if this was your same exact setup BEFORE you blew your motor, blame the high egt's for your sparkplug failures, not the brand. and just FYI, a very lean condition such as yours, can greatly exadurate whp. throw some more gas/meth to bring that down to a reliable 11.5 and those numbers will shrink. IMHO, i think the HBP is being more detrimental than helping you, until you get the proper fuel system/EMS package together

Oh and... That's not the set up I ran when the motors blew...it was stock boost (4-5 psi). After I got pistons and rings, I went on the dyno with 6.5 psi and meth injection...got AFR readings...and they were fine.. It put down 370 whp...after I got the other pulley, which pushed 8.5 psi.. Went and got readings again...now I'm at a deadly AFR...

That's the reason there was no power increase...it leaned out, and leaky head gasket.

The 8.5 psi pulley is off the car!!!!!

I may be a bit crazy but I haven't lost my mind completely, just yet lol

There's plenty of power to get some good numbers...the car isn't really 3500...with less than half the tank of gas..the 18 lbs wheels I have vs 24 lbs stock, minus mufflers and cats, and bunch of other crap I've gotten off the car... Did you also know that a honda pilot intake manifold weights less than stock TL I'm lol..its a bit better in volume also..good for forced induction....I'm at around 3260-3300 lbs... With a good hookup I expect low 12s...but either way...ill be trying to get a high trap speed..that will tell me more or less what times it would pull with good launch

Is 11.5 the optimum AFR? I thought I remember looking at AFR readouts and seeing a "target" of 13.

Not for forced induction. It's not safe to run that lean.
