Chin up John, these things happen mate, you will be back on the rollers in no time, and I have a distinct suspicion that you will not be in the 900 range for long my friend ;-) -

Hey Chad, Tuning the car with factory ford computer and stage 4+ cams is quite a mission, Dave knows his stuff and so I wouldn't worry too much about this process. The fact it is taking alot of time to sort is unavoidable, there are no short cuts at this level mate, we spent one whole week tuning just the idle to get it right with stage 5+ cams, glad to hear you installed a vacuum pump for the brakes this is also a must with large cams. Your throttle problems can be a mixture of things, a larger bov is required at thus level as well, are you controlling boost through the ford computer or externally? The other issue will become the balance of air speed and afr's on your idle, light throttle maps and transition tables from low to high, in our experience it is this section that requires a unique balance and compromise, unfortunately with the Ford ecu you cannot have perfection everywhere, eg. Perfect idle, perfect light throttle & perfect transitions full throttle. You have to find a balance down low, and this balance has a very small window of adjustments when running large cams. Hang in there bud the end result when the stage 4+ cams are sorted & tuned properly is well worth the effort.

Hey Ben.. I was actually running E90 for a while, 2 x 044 and 2000cc Id's. I tested many fuels, C16, Roo 16 etc etc, but found the best results and value for money in our motors with E90

Hey Johnny, Greetings After careful evaluation of your comments I cant help but being a little confused You state clearly that Brad said "He said just said send the motor bak all under his cost, and he'll be more then happy to fix it" and then you go on to the mother of all F/ups "assumption" FYI "so it doesnt backfire on us, and Brad throws it all on us" Initially I thought you may just have used the wrong words in frustration.... This is understandable, however as I continue to read I am perplexed with understanding your actual motives Having the said or mentioned engine sitting around for 4 months in unknown conditions surely didn't help Tiger Please explain your intentions clearly because if you are unhappy with what Brad has suggested, we will gladly go out of our way to please you, in one form or another , can you be pleased? Or are you on a witch hunt? Kindly retract your assumptions or irregular dissatisfaction prompty and publicly
