I'm glad people are still pushing the Renesis. I highly doubt I'll ever go with a FI Renesis myself until it proves to be reliable in doing so, but it is good to see people still pushing the capabilities.

We made over 30+ WOT 4th gear pulls on monday with the car. I am pretty confident the setup is reliable.

Not to downplay the impressive work you're doing by any means, but 30+ WOT pulls in fourth gear isn't that much compared to years of abuse and track time abuse.

I agree, the road course is brutal.

Got back on the dyno.

First sheet is aux ports open; 425rwhp @ 10psi ( stock block, no AI)

Second is comparison between aux ports open and closed, as you can see when we hook the ecu back up to control the aux ports it will have a lot better midrange.

Awesome. Congratulations -- that is some impressive power per lb of boost there.
