sick car man, thanks for the input

 

Thank You for the backup, just to add to this if you do the math and assume a 90% max duty cycle you get the following. This isn't taking account several variables but you are going to be in the ball park.

720WHP/79% * 90% = 820WHP

By the way my new Z gets out of the shop later this week and I am trying to decide on boost / motor options........now. I might just have to stop by and see if I can hang with you later this year before you hit the 1000WHP mark.

 

Why is it in the shop? LOL

A 340 aeromotive, 1600cc injectors or the 1300 and a boost a pump should be good for 500-550whp don't you think?

 

so what would be the ideal compression ratio for e85 under boost?

 

One set up probably costs a little bit more but has far more capability then the other. Reliability is going to favor the setup thats running at a more relaxed pace as well. Running at the very edge of what a fuel system is capable of is very dangerous because when it fails it doesnt just stop it keeps pumping less and less until it leans out the mixture and then you also have an engine failure to deal with.

 

Wetsand and Polish, New Rims and Window tint

I believe you will be good to go with a 1500CC or larger and the 340LPH w/o the boost a pump. I would like to see more details on the flow charateristics of the DW vs the ID's before I make a recomendations.


The factory compression / quench / combustion chambers are nearly impossible to beat.

 

I have the same setup except with an Aeromotive FPR.

Great setup.

 

11:1 it is then, will the aem fpr suffice?

 

heres my plan right now, id 2000s, dual walbros(might do dual aeromotive 340s) with the full blown hanger, -8 feed and return, inline pro fuel rail, aem fpr
