Now that I have a consistent FPR and proper scaling from what I can tell I can finally start to sort the car from a base line. 18 PSI in an E30 is insane. I am not sure how much tire I would need to put that down but I am not sure it would even fit on an e30. I put the Original baseline tune in from Bret at Technica and it is running better than even the modified tune did with the old FPR. Still seeing low 10's at WOT but I have yet to do any dyno revisions at all.
Oh and it pulls like a terrifying freight train from hell even in the 10's1989 332IS -S-Fiddy Four-Some weight removed.

Did the kit ask you to install any electrical component (such as a "converter box", or resistor) onto the MAF harness?

I totally agree that I would rather have a safe 10.8:1 at WOT especially at 7500prm especially because the power is so much that it is almost barely usable. I need video of the outside of the car because I think I am spinning halfway through third gear when I get back on the gas. 255 pilot super sports are no match for however much power I am making.1989 332IS -S-Fiddy Four-Some weight removed.

So the car is running great on the new FPR and Revised tune. Now I just need to get it to shift when I run it out. When pulling in second or third get it becomes really hard if not impossible to shift. I am thinking its the slave cylinder (old) and it is just not completely allowing the clutch to be disengaged. Anybody else have this problem with a high hp and a getrag 260? BTW it makes 20 psi so high hp is an understatement.1989 332IS -S-Fiddy Four-Some weight removed.

But I'm blaming it on an old trans. I'm going to change fluid and see what happens.

Tune is getting Refined constantly. Trans is not going to hold real power. The G260 is not designed to hold 400+ lb/ft of Torque. So I am sourcing a M3 5 speed. I will have to switch the pilot bearing but that is ok, at least I can make my existing driveshaft work with the magic guibo. I will probably have get a new shit selector.1989 332IS -S-Fiddy Four-Some weight removed.
