Cool. I just picked up a Craftsman MM w/DC meter capability, so I was wondering if the two correlate since I plan on testing mine out this weekend.

One thing I'd like to add is that RC Engineering says typically use a BSFC of .55-.60 for SC cars. Using 340hp crank, 370cc, 53.5psig FP(10psi w/1:1 FPR?), 80% DC, you get a BSFC = 0.55.

Also, I'm not sure what A/F ratio that correlates with, but I'd ASSume pretty rich, ie 11-12.5:1 vs. your 13.5:1 dyno.

The injectors are good for 420 bhp at 100% DC assuming a BSFC of .5, so at 80% duty cycle they're good for ~340 bhp. Converting bhp to fwhp: 340*.83 = 282 fwhp.

Back when I had the 240 cc/min injectors and A32 maf I saw the duty cycle go up to 90-100%, which is consistent with the air flow going above what the maf could handle.
