Congrats Scott ! Thats just funny as hell that some cars arent just fun to race that you go and find some modded super bikes, that car of yours is sick fast and it wasnt running full boost, Protomotive tuning you gotta love it.

scott cant protomotive tune your knock sensors to not pull as much timing as it was? When you were hitting it with more boost, were u feeling the timing cut up top past 6000 rpms? Also doesnt the Afr get effected when you turn the boost down that much(running way richer)?

thanks in Advance

Why would you want to pull less timing when the engine is sensing any type of knock. I know there are some cases where you want to do it, but on a motor like ours I don't see a point. Even on my race car I think (maybe higher or little less, I haven't looked at my tune in almost 2 years) mine pulls up to 6 degrees (which yes, is lower than stock but I know if I see any knock its probably going to pop a gasket anyway). I could imagine maybe setting a higher threshhold for the knock sensors, but then again.. I'm not a Porsche tuner.

Well I would tune the knock sensors based on season do to weather changes. IF I can avoid pulling more timing in the summer I would cause there is a crazy power loss with 90 degree weather. My point is to have that ability. I notice with Evoms cars that the car adapts full heartedly to different weather. I feel if I had to turn the boost down that much something is wrong, no (tuning)?

Exactly. My knock-sensors work exactly as they should. They tell me to turn the boost controller down a bit or use better fuel. I have a chart that I follow in my car that tells me the safe amount of boost for certain octane. It's accurate 99% of the time....but if the weather is really, really good (like it was last night), sometime I'll boost a bit more than I want to. That was the case last night, and the car let me how it was a tad too much. Exactly as it should have.
I wouldn't want to change a thing.

Thanks guys. To tell you the truth, I thought for sure that he was going to beat me since I couldn't run high-boost. I was definitely pleasantly suprised at the outcome.
I would have posted the video win or lose.

... BTW, how do you know it is pulling timing, just seat of the pants or are you datalogging or such...Maybe I will call you this week, going to be in Newport News doing a move for LockheedMartin...

It's very noticeable when it happens. It goes from running perfectly smooth to running rough.
Newport News is right up the road. Definitely give me a call.

More info on the 'Busa:
I've been told that stock Busa's typically make 152-155 rwhp.
it's a 04 w/ a brock full sys (exhaust), and his map, -1 in the front, lowered and strapped in the front, pair valve mod.. bike has gone a 9.1@155 in the 1/4 (with a lighter rider), and dynoed 186whp.

Scott,
Keep em coming.
I would like to congradulate you on the kill. Keep our heads (996TT owners) up, while being safe.
Thumbs up to you and the Busa driver. Great video.
