If you look closely at the photo, you can see the 5/8" port just to the left of the capped port, which has the Ford Performance oil separator plugged onto it (PCV Connection)
ok so then that's likely 1/2 inch it goes into the double check valve on mine. The PCV port is 5/8, however that's my BOV line and boost gauge. This is that weird gen2 thing that fixed lkeltners car and my precision BOV flutter. Any chance you could get me pictures of where the rest of your stuff goes? I saw the brake booster line in that one and the line below that going to another port in intake most call drivers side vacuum port. But I'm curious where the top left line goes on yours?

Looks decent. Guessing E60+ calibration. 20-20.5Ā° of spark above 4500rpm.
Your IAT is only reading ambient, not post compressor though. Do you have the harness that allows IAT2 readings?

I donā€™t see a spark adder or knock channel logged. Thatā€™s not exactly something you want to leave out of logs.

Setup is making upwards of 780whp+ above 7400 rpm.

What is ideal for spark?

If these cars donā€™t come with the harness for IAT2 readings then I wouldnā€™t have it.

How can I add the spark adder and knock channel so itā€™s logged in the future?

How can you tell what whp it is making by looking at the log?

Thanks.

Channels are only active for viewing only if the calibrator enables that. If youā€™re on E60+, then 20-21Ā° of spark is usually the target.
I estimate HP based on MAF lb/min.

lol so based on that; what's this you think on 93 pump gas??

If itā€™s an E85 calibration, itā€™s pretty conservative if youā€™re below 18psi. Yep.

So in the interest of making my catch can compatible with boost without getting the big upr kit. I should just be able to cut this line and put in a check valve pointing towards the intake manifold right?

Heā€™s telling me in a very nice way to stop being a wuss, get a fuel system, kill pulley, and keep throwing boost at the car till itā€™s just forced to be fast.
No need for all that although I don't really consider this fast. 2019, 93 tune, 10r80, 3.15 gear, 125 pulley, stock exhaust/cats, full weight plus spare in trunk. My first ever dragy run... I was a bit disappointed. šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Donā€™t be too disappointed Iā€™m running 2 seconds slower lol. Iā€™m confused wether or not my tuner is still planning on adding more timing to my vehicle. He simply asked what I thought and when I responded with the fact that the car is running a 9.3 60-130 he asked if I was using 2nd gearā€¦ itā€™s only up from here I guess.

I estimate HP based on MAF lb/min.
How can I do that, estimate HP, by looking at MAF lb/min, etc? In other words, can you explain how you come up with the HP number?

Perhaps spinning in 2nd when you went WOT?

The value often represents close to crank HP X 10, within a 5% margin of error window. MAF curve, injector data and load calculations in the tuning can alter this conversion a bit more than usual sometimes though.

So for example. A 75lb/min value is about 750hp +/- 5-7%. Then deduct drivetrain/transmission losses for RWHP.

DA also affects this immensely. At 500 DA, I hit 86.69lb/min at as low as 6100rpm. That is as high as the PID can display in a log however. Yet my peak HP is between 7500-7600rpm, so my MAF lb/min is probably in the 95-110lb/min at HP peak.
