I dont know any power figures yet as it hasn't been RR'd since it's rebuild with all the goodies mentioned above, will find out in the new year. Engine was running 140BHP with what I believe to be just the Zorst and drilled airbox before the rebuild!

Best to be seeing 0.80 thro out, (11.8:1 afr) but 0.85 is normally best for power (12.6:1 afr)

Dan, it's not that easy to achieve accurate fuelling on MFi. That's probably why.

Also, 0.85 is a little on the 'brave' side for most tuners, I think you will find.

BTW, mine makes around 295bhp at the wheels on the DD Dyno.

Linsay, I imagine that's a little thirsty, no??!!

EFi would be a good move. Mine runs close to lambda 1.00 off-boost. This is another snag with MFi, it's fairly crude.

It is a good system and has it's benefits, but accuracy of control isn't one of them!
