boosted, tuned and dyno #'s
so ya im finaly finished my car, got the sf kit with sf fuel system.
i changed over to a steel briaded oil return line and got some exhaust work done so iv got 2.5" downpipe for about 2 feet, then 2 1/4" magnaflow.
i got the car on the dyno and we played around with the fuel pressure until we got the best a/f (about 12:1) and the numbers are 165 whp, 150 wtq @ 5-5.5 psi
planning on getting emanage and all harnesses pretty soon.

When it is actually spring/summer perhaps Don't worry, if one is organized, I would be sure to tell all that I know
Though if you want to pop into the MR's attempt to revive Lafleur's that first Thursday in April perhaps I'd be around
Guaranteed I wouldn't be in full summer mode though 
DONT PANIC

seems about right. Which SF fuel system is it? I am guessing the newer billet aluminum version, right?
In that case, be very very careful when you turn up the boost. The boost-reference pressure regulator does not work at the intended rate. Instead of a 12:1 pressure increase ratio, it has a 7:1 increase ratio. It is fine for the first few pounds of boost, but as you increase the boost more and more, you will get leaner and leaner.
