Is this why our Lightnings are reaching their limits?
<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">After all this Dyno work, we developed a smaller blower pulley for more boost. The blower pulley gave a performance increase below 4500 RPM, but we maxed out the air meter above 4500 RPM, which did not increase peak power due to leak of additional fuel flow. The 1/8 mile ET's improved but the 1/4 mile times did not. We are presently working on a higher capacity mass air and a new chip to accommodate this.
Our Experience has shown us that the chip, mass air and blower pulley combo works fine on a lightning which does not have our exhaust, because the flow is restricted enough with the stock exhaust so as not to exceed the mass air.</font>
