WHAT was meant to be a simple two hour stop at Haltech’s Lexington, Kentucky facility turned into a day and a half of POR440 problem solving.After getting hooked up to the hub dyno, it seemed to be problem after problem for Arby. First a timing issue, then overheating had to be conquered in order to make a safe run on pump gas.With the sun having already well and truly set, Arby’s tuning session extended into Thursday for an E85 set up. The problems didn’t stop here, with a faulty coil pack and even a melted line to the boost controller hampering the operation. Eventually POR440 pumped out an 854hp at the hubs and Arby called it a day, with Atlanta beckoning. Luckily, the tucker in this part of the country is pretty beaut!
