So, apparently the stock ignition is teh ghey, it was not liking 29+psi on the 111 leaded, even with the stock plugs gapped down to .020. Boo. Still, looks like topping up before going to the track is an easy +30whp/+30wtq for me, so if I never get Aquamist or E85 I'll likely just do this.

Before: 414whp/~335wtq@27psi

After: 443whp/~360wtq@30psi, ignition breakup, +3° self tune. Tach signal failed so no torque, sorry.


I added 3° of timing across the board and 4° from 6500 up. Not sure if the car actually *hit* an extra 3° of timing with the elevated boost/load levels, but it was close. After the dyno I turned down teh boost to 28.5 peak and it lost the misfire and honestly felt faster. Sigh, wish I would have just done that on the dyno. Oh well.
