Lots of pretty cool options for setting up launches and traction control in the Infinity. I'm using a strategy that 3 steps @ 5800 with 7lbs off the antilag and the switches into traction control only mode (you can see the switch).

I love my PRL kit, the recirculated dump is bada** sounds sooo good all turbo!! ive been beating it up all summer now taken it to mid-ohio and beat it some more it just is relentless on power! i am running a 6262 precision ball bearing, without any issues as of now... hopefully i dont run into any, if i do im sure ill be on a garrett gtx3576 sooner or later better spooling for track days at the road course... Car looks good! im outta fuel with my pump on e85 but maybe ill jump my pump to get some more voltage! do you do e-tunes for ap1's with hondata kpro?

I do if they are setup up right.
Updates to the project, got the car back on the dyno with E70 fuel. The fuel system is maxed out @ 95% duty cycle at 19.5psi or so. Below are the power charts at various boost levels.
We got 575whp/408wtq while maxing out the fuel system on E70 fuel, on the 5862.
4psi WG pressure, E85 vs 92
7psi, E85 vs 92
11psi, E85 vs 92
14.5psi, E85 vs 92
16psi, E85
17psi, E85
19.5psi, E85
People have asked me a few times "that looks lazy". No, it's not, I use a fast ramp rate during the majority of the tuning session so as to keep the motor from getting hot and reducing how long I have to wait on cooldown time between pulls. Below is a graph that demonstrates a slower ramp (500rpm/sec, typical of say a 3rd or 4th gear pull on the street) vs the fast ramp I used (900rpm/sec) to show the difference in spool. Turbo comes on very fast and makes tons of torque.

Traded my POS beater in for it. Next step, picking up the AEM harness for my AEM Infinity ECU and converting the car to AEM. Hitting up PRL for their turbo kit, minus the garbage precision turbo and other accessories I'm not fond of (i'm not a fan of Tial or Precision parts lol). Looking at putting a Comp 5862 on it, and possibly doing flex fuel for some extra fun with the AEM ECU.

Well, I got some dumb luck, my block is literally seeping a bit of coolant through what seems to be the casting above the exhaust side motor mount bracket, had it up to look for the leak, and it's not out of the oil cooler hoses, not out of the plug on the back, but literally out of the casting in a couple of spots. WTF?
