From what I have read and what I know about my motor, it wouldn't surprise me if it picks up more than 16hp. But at this point I will be happy with whatever it gives me. Just got a 6al2 programmable box to play with also. Hopefully it will help me improve on the pathetic 1.65 60'..

My prediction....Get the Q16 worked out.. Duster runs 11.14... Maxie runs 10.16... But NOT at LVD!  Much of what happens at the dyno vs the track has to do with atmospheric conditions and underhood air dynamics.. Plus, dont forget how that stuff will stink the hell out of your trailer.  But its worth it! Ill be at the track this fall. Ill help if needed. MB

Boy, what faith Mike... 10.99, 11.04, 11.07 at Lebanon Valley.
Well the Q16 definitely helped out. Not sure how much as Saturday was by far the best air the car has ever run in. I jetted up before switching the fuel (last time at the track the a/f was a pretty consistent 11.8) so I went from .095 primary, .131 secondary to .098 primary, .137 secondary. The a/f was 13.6. Jetted up to .100 primary, .143 secondary and the a/f was 13.1. Checked the plugs didn't see any sign of detonation. The MPH was picking up as well. Will jet up again for MIR. The biggest help also it seems I have the chassis getting to where it should be, even with a not so well prepped track I did a 1.63, 1.64, and a 1.67 leaving off idle.
Question for Q16 users. I used just under 2 gallons, which means I have 3 gallons left. The container was not open more than necessary, but will it be any good in 3 weeks when I run the car again?

You definitely need more jet. It will make more power.
