So I've been chasing my tail for a couple years and can't seem to get an optimally tuned engine. The FI worked perfect (as perfect as a 30yr old FI can) before the rebuild.
I've read (Paul Anders writeups) that because I changed Cams (Webcam 73 grind) the MPS will likely need tuned.
I can get the car driveable but get some pinging in mid range (3200) rpm range in the higher gears but the pinging does stop if I floor it. I'm running premium gas w/octane boost but that has not eliminated the problem.
What should the fuel pressure be with this setup?
Anyone know of a shop with a proper bench setup that can dial in the MPS using either a DYNO or another method?
Any/all leads are appreciated.

Pete,
Check the search engine a couple of weeks ago some one posted a question about porsche shops in the nyc area. I know of at lest two really good shops here on long island (names and contacts are in the previous post)

Thx Dan.
Rich (nycchef) had that thread going. He's tried a couple and I'm just trying to find specifically a shop w/a bench setup and/or a Dyno.

Get a WB O2 sensor with data logging, you will find the issue yourself.
Regarding the fuel pressure I ran about 36 with a similar setup, also had about 300 ohms additional resistance in the head temp sensor

Get one of these and have fun!!!
I wonder if this would work on an older porsche? I bet it would.
