How much should I push it to?

If it messes with the readings porting it like that, I think I'll leave it stock.

Look at your AFR correction under spark correction in spark control in your HPtuners. If your running 12.5-1 AFR this will add a few degrees of timing. You can zero that table.

Re: How much should I push it to?

I did a little port/polish on the intakes upper/lower and on the heads in there now are stock with stock rockers and springs. The pushrods are the light weight ones from intense, some say they had problems with them breaking. That is why I might do the 105lb springs with the Comp pushrods first. I know I'm tuned for the .055 jet now but my octane table is set at 23 degrees of timing but when I run it with the .055 my scans show 25-26 degrees of timing with zero KR. I don't know where the extra timing is coming from. I think I will have to take about 2 degrees out for the .063 and 4 degrees for the .071 jet. I have 5 gallons of 100 oct. unleaded and 2 bottles of nitrous 1 with 24lbs and the other with 25lbs.

I also have a TB I ported/polished taking out the under part of the maf out and polishing it out. I want to put that in also for more air flow to reduce puddling. So at this point I'm still debating.

I'd bet you're picking up timing from the IAT sensor seeing the change in temperature, and the MAF sensor seeing a change in density. I relocated my IAT and it helped reduce the timing advance I was seeing.

97rs4life, octane booster?!?!? Are you serious? I thought everyone knew that **** don't work. He said he's going to run 100 octane, that should be sufficient. Fuel solenoids hate octane booster! I beleive NX had an article on LS1tech saying that it caused the seals to swell and leak.

Thats some good info, I'm still going to run it how it is since I'm not seeing any KR right now. I think 97rs4life meant racing fuel(I hope)LOL , thats the way I took it as. I have heard the same about the boosters with the noids. Thanks for the response.

Re: How much should I push it to?

yes I meant going with higher octane as he mentioned adding some race fuel into the mix. However there are some bottles of octane booster made to work with solenoids. But yea traditional bottles of it harm the solenoids
