I wouldi get the extra fuel needed.
I am not sure if you removed the fuel regulator that comes with and inside the fuel filter, if no then the sl55 pump may give you the same volume and pressure as stock, I am running a external fuel regulator now.
as far as the IAT's what was the ampient temp when you did your run,, the 106 sounds very good at the top end of 2 gear,, My iat runs 5 to 9 degrees above ampient then 1,,,2,,, 3 ==end of 1/4 mile run, my iat is 140 ,,and by the time i get back to the pits it is back to 9 to 11 degrees above ampient, this is with the newest Needswings duel intake which should be on the market soon. jim
Ps see i'm not mad at you.
i heard once that a car is to get you from point A to point B
but to me the car is the point
I didn't touch the regulator or alter the filter in any way. Just installing it bumped the IAT's up 2 or 3 full points. At this point I really think a retune can make it work, but if it doesn't I'll probably just go back to what works (my old 181 an stock pulley).
As for the ambient temps, it was around 46-50F here when I ran, so I was cruising around with IAT's at 20F over. I've seen much lower, so I'm a little disappointed. I'll compare some of my old logs and compare.
No hard feelings, Jim. I wasn't in the best of moods last night. By this morning I'd already edited my response, but you responded to the original version.
