I am pretty sure he was running 30% vs mine running 20%, but his car was obviously quicker in every aspect. I was using an older RD Logic pipe and will test the car again in a few days with the new JP pipe.
Try the Skyline pipe. I've also found that you need to run the JP rich on the low and lean on top to get the power out. It runs on the hot side but no sign of overheating.
