Slow '91 Talon

Hey guys, I have a 91 Talon I bought a few years ago off of a member. Ended up needing a new motor, so I bought a shortblock off of another member. Paid a "former shop" to have the head redone and put the motor back together and in. Using a pocket logger I was seeing crazy advance at WOT. Brought the car to DB, and ended up with right around 200 to the wheels. I figured that wasn't too bad with an auto, 14b, and only 550 cc injectors on a stock fuel pump.

Last year I added a FMIC (bought off of here), and this year I plan on going e85: 255, afpr, 1200 cc RC injectors, wb02, and a tune. Maybe using a BBK throttle body? I have one, but I'm not sure about fitment. (Everything I see is about putting a 1g TB on a 2g, not the other way around. Plus I'm not sure if the sensors and shit will transfer over, whatever though, it was cheap.)

Mods are: supposedly balanced bottom end, 8.5:1 pistons, arp headstuds, cometic HG, zero'd out MAF-T in blow-through, FMIC, MBC, and 550's.

I'm sure you guys don't care, and this is a pretty mild build. I also figure I'll be asking questions as time goes on, so I might as well have a central thread to ask them in.

If you want to know anything else, ask.
