I feel like I got a woopen!

Finally got the dagum cameras to work again, hit a button on a camera that I did not use often, plum fergit the operation, and why is it in TIFF????Arrug

Here is a bit of the data logger with the stacked pulleys. Another chart shows the spike to 25 PSIG until the belt began to cry for assistance. The temp is near 32 F.

Please note the boost and its equivalent rpm, yes below 4000 rpm. The engine was going like never before! Way over pulleyed; but if you dont try and go there how do you know? My fuel pressure at the rail was above 80 when I could focus on the gauge-

" Wound it up to a hundred-and-ten
My speedometer said that I hit top end
My foot was glued like lead to the floor
That's all there is and there ain't no more

Now the boys all thought I'd lost my sense
And telephone poles looked like a picket fence
They said, "Slow down! I see spots!
The lines on the road just look like dots"

I will be getting to the development for control of the f/a, just wanted to see if I could richen the mixture at extreme boost. Remember that I used to hit 17:1 at 19 PSIG......

Were you blowin black smoke like diesel?

 

to be honest.... 10.3:1 is not to far off for that much boost. Detonation hurts at 25psi.

 

Car was like a catapult, smoke it might be but that would be BACK there....................Hard to see

"And comin off the line when the light turns green
Well she blows em outta the water like you never seen
I get pushed out of shape and its hard to steer
When I get rubber in all four gears"

The chart shows the f/a going up at that point towards 13 but whats important I was not immediately going to 17:1 like before.

All this from a little study and a length of hose, priceless.

WOODY in COLD VA....

 

A vast improvement. That filter/regulator appears to react rather nicely

Great work Woody!

That's what happen to me one night when I forgot to turn my IC pump on. Do you think the IAT's might be getting too high or the overboost threw you into this "limp mode"? I had to pull the battery cable to get mine to reset that night?

It is a lyric from the song "Hot rod lincoln"

 

Heres a montage that will be of interest remembering the Flight 1549 recently........
