Thwarted by a battery eh? Geez. MAP has a lightweight unit you should try out:

It hits 20psi in a nice spot but torque is still pretty low and slowly climbs through the pull, that's crazy. My car (and yours on ef4 probably) made ~400wtq (dynojet) at 4500rpm so this setup is a good 100wtq below that there....maybe with some tuning it'll come back, but I think that's where the really big snail is obviously showing itself...the power up top is gonna be hella!

Will be curious to see how you like it on the street at this power level and then you know, what breaks when you start running some more boost
Yea, I think torque might be lagging behind for sure, but spool isnt' I don't think. I think this setup, if started at the same RPM will be the same time or better than the EF4.



It looks like I hit 400wtq on the EF4 at around 4200rpms on the last setup.

but i also started that pull 600rpms sooner.

I think I will loose a bit down low but I think with MIVEC tuning and some timing that it won't be too bad. This kit so far looks impressive, can't wait to get more results.
