I dont ever think i charged anyone, i just enjoyed the challenge and felt bad for guys that got ripped off by other tuners. My wife put an end to it awhile ago since it was taking up alot of time.
Thank you very much! Understand with the wife. We keep the wives happy they keep us happy right? Maybe we all meet up and grab a beer sometime or go to the track!

Sounds good

You really just need a new cam with a bigger fuel pump lobe. I believe the injector are fine, the mech pump just needs some help.

You know my goal is only maybe 7.4x with this thing but I'd like to do it with headers a pulley and tune if possible. I think I can cut .2 off with just some front shocks so I don't have to leave at idle. I would sure do a cam but not if I have to sacrifice hwy mileage bc I work out of it. Wonder how much a cam swap and springs would run?

I've run Seafoam in a variety of vehicles. Always had good results when used properly.

I also throw about 1/2 a bottle in the crankcase about every 2 oil changes and run it around the block pretty hard before a drain.

I've started using a bottle every other oil change in the gas tank as well.

For the intake stuff, get a can of Seafoam Deep Creep and spray in your TB, fire it up for 2 sec, rinse cans repeat 3x, then let it sit for 20min, then crank it up and drive it.

(Unsure if the Whipple changes things)

Be careful mixing additives with E85. 99% of them aren't compatible. Pretty sure there's a warning in the owner's manual too.

I just had the dealer do the top end DI cleaning on mine (16,000 miles).

I've got a new set of injectors ready to go in too.

Hmmm maybe meth would help. I'll look into Seafoam as well don't know anything about it. I guess I need to crack open the owners manual bc I just hit 16k as well. Thanks gentlemen!
