2 bar is almost exactly 29 psi.

Well, half busting your ***** and half legit question.

I just know you are all about quick spool/broad tq. curve so I was a little suprised to see you making peak tq at 6K.

Still bad *** numbers, I just assumed you had peak tq. around 4-5K or something.

What have you done to prevent that? Other headstuds? Glued headgasket? Heavy clamp? O-rings? Low ignition?

560 on pump is very strong. Its more than I ever thought you would get on pump gas. I was figuring around 500 or maybe high 400's.

those are some strong numbers indeed. If you are pull 560 on pump then there is no question you will pull alot more on race fuel. Are you gonna advance the timming at all or just increase the boost pressure?

I think that was on 75% 93 and 25% xylene but still strong none the less.
