First drive with P1SC and cooling issues

Well I must say I am happy. The car has a 355, 12lbs P1SC and only a 2 core IC. Cooling mods are a BeCool rad, duel stock fans, edelbrock pump and watter wetter. To my surprise we jumped onto the interrstate and was halted by a 2 hour accident. I was like well lets hope we'll be ok. Car cooled perfectly at 190* And highway was perfect at 180ish. I know its not the heat of summer but it cooled like normal. We get the car tuned next week with the 411 ECM and 2 bar so we'll let you know how it goes.

What is that 411 ECM out of?
It will handle a 2Bar sensor with the stock code? Or did you have someone re-write it to handle a 2Bar sensor?

My 89 Formula is running on one out of a 02 Z28 and my GF's 355 RS (this car) is running on one out of a 01 2500 HD

With EFILive you can use the 2 bar. Very simple procedure. Drivability is night and day compared to chips and such. Its hard to imagine people still using them. lol

Go to page 2 of the TPI sections and look for TPI OBDII

Yeah,

Driveability is night and day from the older stock stuff.

Cool, you are running an LS1 PCM in a thirdgen. I have never tried EFILive, but that sounds good that the LS1 PCM will use a 2 Bar MAP sensor. No loss of resolution, right? I have never tried the newer stuff. It sounds interesting though.

How much boost is actually showing on the gauge with that 12lb pulley?
How does it feel compared to how the car drove before, amazing?

We just got the 2 bar on but have not done any romping on it yet. With problems this past week with work and such, dyno tuning has been pushed back until mid month. But I did get on it to about 3K and between 2500 and 3 it was around 3 lbs on my guage.
