I think a better average for stock boost would be 13.9-14.4 or so.


Hmm Interesting, I'll keep that in mind...

What, a V6 Mustang?

I ran a 13.7 at stock boost, stock everything really. And i had a crappy launch too, i think it was a 2.20 60 foot or around there.

7. Run your SR20DE to redline at least once a month. It will keep the cams from gunking up.



lol, is that a joke or good advice? What is the risk/benefit ratio for this one? Chance you will blow up your engine to clean the cams?

I wouldn't exactly say that they do, at least in my case I have better experience with Bosch +2 over BKR6E-11's

I'm talking about a 7MPG difference... my NGK's are probably shot though...

So thats why I got NGK Iridium IX ones, BKR5EIX-11's to see if they would be the same or not

No, that's real advice. It's from the old mailing list days.

The older DE's had poorly designed cam oiling tubes that gunked up, so the consensus was that you should run the engine hard once in a while to keep that from happening.

Never use fuel injector cleaner! It will eat at your injectors and leave them mishappen.


TRUE!

B13 with SR20DE:
0-60mph = 7.6 seconds
1/4 mile = 15.7 seconds
Top speed = 128mph

Im not sure about this. With my stock DE I did 134mph just when I got it... just saying.

8. Always have rear tire pressure at least 3psi lower than the front tires. Optimal street settings for Sentras is 34 Front/29 Rear.


Does it apply for every rim/tire size?? offset??
