Jim, what size injectors are you running with.  It seems that frequently if
using anything higher than the stock 460cc/min injectors there can be
difficult in getting a low RPM and vacuum.  What RPM do you idle at?

I seem to have just the opposite problem.
With WOT I have no problem seeing 30-31"MAP whatever
is the pressure of the day.
My problem is at idle I never seem to get less than
15" MAP. This would mean that I will always be running
in staged mode with both injector set operating
because Tracy set the staging point at 15". I know
that this is adjustable but I'm wondering why I can't
get <15"MAP.
Has anyone recorded a table of RPM vs. MAP for the
range of 1000RPM-6000RPM?
I'm especially interested in the low end and would
appreciate any input from our more experienced
rotorheads.
