So I'm guessing you did not have any fuel pressure issues.LOL
Gl and nice build
Personally I would have just bought a 5bar and never have to think about it again.
All i want is 600hp will last about 1-3 months depending on hrs behind the wheel then you get bored and want more 700?? 800?? = 5 bar map once instead of 3.5 then 5 bar.
Its all good just have fun

I ordered a AEM 3.5bar MAP sensor and the car will be getting retuned this upcoming Thursday. I came for 600+ and I'm gonna get it!!!
Nice numbers getting there . Congrats . As Roger pointed , 5 bar map might be a better choice but that's just a suggestion and besides the price are the same.

Haha there was most definitely not any fuel pressure issues haha. Thanks man! Well, the engine is not built at all, so I figure I shouldn't push too much more than 600. So due to that thought process, the 3.5bar unit was selected because of the higher resolution it has compared to the 5bar unit. Hopefully 600 doesn't get old quick hahaha.

Thanks man I appreciate it! Gotcha gotcha, well same thing I quoted for him was basically I don't plan on going higher than low 600's for a while so the 3.5bar unit would be better suited in that case. I won't go more than low 600's until I get a built engine.

You can easily take the stock bottom to the 700's with no issue as long as the tune is in check, but I wouldn't go much past there as the corn raises the torque #s to a questionable level for the rods to continue going up and down and stay straight as well as the stock pin will bend and thats a big problem.
Go have fun and count the days till the boredom begins at 600hp LOL
welcome to the DISEASE its definitely a fatal illness

Ah I see I see. Well, this is certainly giving me some ideas haha. What about the stock head and head bolts? I know that turbo is good for mid 700's. Most likely will push for upper 600's instead of lower 600's haha. That is correct, it is definitely a disease, but it can be a fun disease haha.

Thanks man! When the videos are up from the dyno I will be sure to link them to this thread. The mufflers are from Vibrant performance.

The stock head won't have any problems nor the the head bolts, also the 366 is capable of 800 hp in the 33-35 psi range then its pretty much done. PSI is not really a problem for the motor its torque that causes havoc.
Just have fun!!!!!

Hey everyone, sorry for the delayed response. Tuning last Thursday proved to be successful with the new AEM 3.5bar map sensor. 648 whp and 620 wtq on 24 psi!
