no doubt the overlap is a tough issue. it's running closed loop.

I had a LPE open loop chip previously, but that was before mark tuned it and removed the secondaries.

the cams are very streetable but not good at all for emissions, and I'm sure pulling the secondaries didn't help the situation either. but I sure love the way the car drives without them. throttle response is right now with the light flywheel and ti rods, and no secondaries to snap open.

I'll talk more to marc about this and see if he's interested. I think it could have some performance applications down the road for a high compression lt5 with a fully updated fuel system (pumps, lines, injectors, tune)

there is some power to be had with e85, especially with turbos!!
