Smile Finally got car back...

Well i picked my car up SATURDAY and it was nice to drive her again..Well it made i guess decent RWHP it made 380.3 and 375 rwtq a little low, thats going thru exhaust they didnt open up the cutout because they ran into some problems .1ST my accel 300 plus broke on the second pull and it kept blowing out the spark up top can that really happen or is he bullsh***** me on that i cant post my dyno sheet or i would i dont have a scanner but it is very choppy im wondering if my opti is going he said it had to do with the stock ignition not being able to handle the boost .So what kid of result will i see when they retune it with beter ignition and the cutout open..OH that is SAE rated HP standard hp i almost 400 . So what do you guys think....

Sounds good. on the ignition part, I think he's right. I just did a 383 blower car and once you hit 5,000rpm's it stops pulling. I told the guy he needed a msd of his choosing. I know that a couple of my mustang buddies put blowers on there car and the same thing would happen untill they put on a MSD unit.

Try taking down your plug gap to somewhere in the low .03x or high .02x range. I’ve seen blown engines needing to go as low as .022” not to blow out the spark.
