Couple of questions with the Srt-6.
Is it a speed density system?
No Maf?
Return less fuel system?
Sounds like you guys have a pig rich supercharged engine (like every other oem blown engine) and you are getting some amazing results off of a intake and pulley (leaning it out)
When eurocharge or let tune these things, do they directly modify the fuel maps? If so I take you they are leaning it out more? Or just smoothing things out a bit.
How are the turbo guys adding more fuel with there turbo set up?
Oh, and hi, im new here.

Stock tunes w/ no bolt ons are pig rich, this is true for the srt4, magnum, old cobras, srt6 etc.
You slap on some bolt ons (pulley, intakes, etc) and it leans everything out and you get some great numbers. (cobras pick up 75 horse with a tune and a pulley)
But as soon as you want to go further, past the stock fuel system, its near impossible to get more fuel then the stock setup wants to give.
Sorry bout the confusion.

We tuned one of these cars with this fuel system on it and even maxing out the injectors, couldn't get under 14.8 AFR. When we went to 90% duty cycle, it got down to 14.6, but that's just dangerous so we dialed it back to 80%. We ended up going with larger injectors. Customer should have results this week.
Not sure of his SN, sorry Pete, but he's from CT and worked with my bro at Ultimate Edge.

...at what RPM in what gear did you see 14.6 at 80% duty cycle?

Between my INMotion tune and the fuel mod that Rob and Woody have come up with I was able to drive the AFR into the 10's with a 181 pulley. The determining factor is boost any time you go above 18.7psi the car starts to lean out. In the end I was able to get a flat AFR of 12.5 in all gears at all rpm's to red line. I know that if I had been able to keep the car till this fall when the air temps dropped I would have hit the 11's In the heat I was running consistant 12.1's and even hit a 12.04. When I started pulling the parts off the motor I found a broken vacumn line so who knows how much that was slowing me down.

This was with stacked pulleys, Needswings intake manis, SL55 intake, custom exhaust, and everything else!

I dyno'ed my mods every inch of the way...
From bone stock - to - bolting on the 185mm / SL55 / Iridium Plugs and keeping the factory tune - I GAINED +52 HP and +74.13 RWTQ and AFR was about the same (10.5 to 10.8) VS Stock @ 5800 RPM and 21 PSI - the bolt-on mods alone did not make my SRT6 run lean...
Tuning gave me an average gain of +25.8 RWHP and +18.1 RWTQ @ 5800RPM (Rock steady 12.5 AFR to 6150 RPM at 21 PSI) with my bolt ons...
The only way I can possibly run lean is in some really dense cold weather (Which I don't see in CA - but I do run a sea level) - or adding crazy mods - - or going back and overleaning the tune...
22 pulls that dyno-tune day and not one IAT overtemp (with the factory HE, IC and pump) not on CEL...

good god, 10.8.... really?
thats in the plug fouling range, I wonder how many converter failures there have been due to loading them up with that much unburnt fuel

I have experience with editing and film although everything I used back then is out of date now. lol.
