After 3 months of doing my 2.3 build and buying all the little bits and pieces the car is finally running. Aside for a couple of small oil leaks on the lines for the external oil cooler and a bit too high oil pressure (need to port the relief on the new EVO 3 OFH after the BSE kit install)...

I have been trying to get my car to run with 0 knock for a while on both pump gas and e85 without success. I have tried different A/F ratios and even when timing is pulled a lot I get a blip or two. I have attached a couple of logs on E85 at 24PSI and 28PSI. The car behaves the same between 13.4...
