Thread: Think I went with too big of a turbo...

i do like 3 pulls with minor adjustments in between then give the car a 2-5 min break and look over the datalog and map and adjust then 3 more pulls, i want to get adjustable cams, but i would need some serious practice and a power tool to make it a fast process..

Worked a bit with Jamie tonight, thanks a lot for the help, got the car to be more responsive. Loosing traction in first at 4k rpm instead of 5k, which is a nice torque bump.

Power wise it still is low according to the FX2. We double checked the timing, it was 15* as per gspec pulleys, since Gspec pulley timing marks are different.

Jamie gave some suggestions that I will check out tomorrow and will report back. Thanks a lot for the help Jamie!

Right on! u should take him the car..

Never a problem.

We will figure it out.

Good to hear. +100 cool points for Mr. Marsh.

Well that is good news. Hopefully you can get the results you are looking for with the current setup. Either way, getting the bin from jamie to get it started can only benefit you in the future when you have a tubular.

Vadim what injector/maf setup you using?

Indeed, should help with the going forward setup.

Running 520cc STI yellows, and an E60 maf. Jamie gave me a different VQ table then what I have, so I'll try it out on my tune and see if its the thing that made the difference.

Ever since I switched to the E60 maf I've noticed some power loss, even on my DET from DE MAF. Though the VQ table I had was slightly off at that time, but the current VQ table I pulled of an A32 Tune.

What injector duty cycle you at?

Max so far seems to be 80% with low 11's AFR's.

I am glad that you are making some progress...... You will get to where you are happy with it sooner or later. +1000 cool points for Jamie, lol.... Then when you get some time you can get it on a dyno and fine tune it, since that is really the true measure of where you are at... I know you have that tool that estimates whp and measures acceleration but it will get to a point that will be useless since traction will be an issue. You also have the infamous "Vadim butt dyno" to go off of, lol.
