Re: advice on driving to tune
i dont have a truck to tow up the grape vines. Towing would cost about 600+.
That's what i'm tryna save as this is my third time rebuilding my motor. Both times the motor gave on the dyno.I can show a picture of one of the graphes to show it wasnt the build atleast from what i was told. i just lost my job so im tryna figure a way of getting my car there by driving.

Re: advice on driving to tune
i kinda feel its the best choice. i can find a truck to tow it as close as i can to my sister house, which is near bakersfield. Maybe i can find someone to tow for me over the grape vine.But if theres another alternative it would be great. im in the process of posting the graph of the one tune i had

Re: advice on driving to tune
If you applied a positive pressure on the wastegate higher than 9psi, wouldn't that hold the gate open, keeping the boost at close to 0? I would still keep an eye on the boost gauge though...I'd drive it real easy, never go higher than like 5 in/Hg.

Re: advice on driving to tune
all decent quality part and a ebay BOV?.... Youre tuner should be able to get u a base graph to run the 750cc on....Or use oem base map(supplied with s300 software) with factory injectors and drive to tuner with charge pipe disconnected if youre absolutly set on driving it....Youre taking a risk, but should be ok with what i mentioned
Also ring seating procedures as stated above is a good idea...so if youre too rich on those 750's they wont seat properly...Thats why i said oem injectors with base map

Re: advice on driving to tune
i plan on asking church for a basemap. hrmm i never thought of renting a truck to tow. i dont know anyone of a truck capable of making it over the grapevines. should i go talk to uhaul about renting one of their trucks and a trailer? any idea of how much it will cost?

Re: advice on driving to tune
i just killed my rings driving literally 3miles to the tuner..you might as well just start burning whatever money you have now, because you throwing it away driving an untuned setup that far.. maybe you could load a stock map and throw some stock injectors in there and set boost cut to 1psi, but its still a 2liter 10:1 motor me personally wouldnt even do it.

Re: advice on driving to tune

Re: advice on driving to tune
if you dont want to risk then tow it. thats what i would do....unless he can give you a good base map. I would talk to youre tuner for advice then go off of peoples responses on the internet...he is going to be tuning it and will know what he feels is best

Re: advice on driving to tune
If your running a standalone load a basemap and baby the **** outta it until you get to the tuner if you dont want to tow it..
You can drive no problem to your tuner if you just stay out of boost and in low rpm
