Default Need faster spoolup..

I need faster spoolup time for my t3/t4. Not anything major like rebuilding turbo or anything. Just more simple bolt on things or tricks. Any suggestions?

EBC

AVCR lets you spike the boost in a sense, to help you achieve the psi you want to hit in 1st gear

Use a non-bleed type wastegate.

Run a bit on the rich side.

Lower backpressure as much as possible.

Adjust exhaust cam for earlier opening.

Add nitrous.

Ceramic Coat or heat wrap your exhaust manifold and exhaust turbine. This way, your exhaust gases coming out of the block won't lose as much heat as it travels through the piping. Hotter exhaust gases = higher velocity air = faster moving air = faster spool up . I don't know exactly how much faster of a spool up it will give you, but logically, it makes sense. The down side is that the things that you heat wrap will not last as long because it will be getting extremely hot. More heat = more fatigue on the metal and welds = not lasting nearly as long before something cracks or breaks .

he means if you have adjustable cam gears adjust the exhaust cam gear so it expells gasses quicker, this is done by advancing X amt of degrees i believe.

Do a search on Google for Daws Device. Those things kick ***.

To cure lag between shifts, run your BOV back into your intake upstream of your compressor.
