If I can remember what they are I will put the names up.
As for my car being in the show. no way. this car show is only for the most rare of rare cars that date back to the late 1800s. some of the cars that where at the show sold for as much a 5 million.

Just got my DSP Yesterday. Installed it and just sold the stage 2 PCM. I have to wait for the usb for it to come then I will have it rescaled for the stage 2 injectors and the 3 bar map/tip

You should've kept the stage 2 PCM over the stock one, that way less work needs to be done in the CRM tune to rescale everything.

I was doing some resurch on srtforums and they all said to just sell the stage 2 pmc.
Posted: Fri Sep 10, 2010 11:27 am
by LilSparkPlug
Really? Everything I read said to start with at least a Stage 1 PCM.

here is the link to what i found
http://www.srtforums.com/forums/f24/dia ... ndex3.html
Most people on it say to ditch the stage 2 and go with stock pcm.
I havent sold the stage 2 yet but i have someone that is going to buy it fro mme should i not sell it and just load the 93 oct and go with it like that then.

Well if Duster said it, it's gold. I'm running mine on an S1 PCM.

Change of plans. I did not sell the stage 2 PCM, I’m keeping it and getting a rescale done it instead to max out the stage 2 injectors.

Is 93 octane a big deal in america?? The lowest octane fuel i can buy is 95 octane and highest is 99...... Does dsp do a 99 octane tune?
Whats the standard octane in america??
And i pay £1.11 for 1 litre of fuel so thats $1.7 ish so I pay $7.74 a gallon......
(i havnt got a SRT-4 so im not really that arsed lol just want to kno!)

I think you missed the point that there are different octane standards...thus 91 over here has a higher rating than 91 over there.

Yes the weather was bad. I went up north and it was even colder up there. I have some family down in Taxes that I visit, but I normally do that during the winter so it’s not all that worm.

The reason the older 5.7 motors only made 220 hp was because of low compression motors, and lowered timing for emissions reasons. Mainly they were designed for trucks, and passenger cars to last a long time, not make the most HP. LT1 motors from the early 90's made about 300HP, LS1 motors made about 340HP.
Your 95 octane is about 91 over here, and your 98 is about 93 or 94 octane. Most pumps on the East Coast of the US are 87, 89, 93 (measured in RON+MON/2, comes close to the AKI measurement). Some Sunoco stations sell 94, and even a few more sell 100 octane unleaded, but it costs more. I can buy 112 octane low-lead race gas, but I can't pump it into the car. E85 fuel is rated around 100-105 octane, and is available randomly across the US. In California, most high test pumps only offer 91, but that's for their stupid communist style emissions regulations they have. I think right now for regular (87) I'm paying $2.49 a gallon.
Sorry to off-topic it again.
