everyone can question me anytime. If they want to see the car come see it. Its been around the country at most events.

 

Your answer to your question is this. Yes it is a straight t4 i wont disclose the trim settings on this turbo.

If you need any other questions please feel free to contact me.

 

I'll never forget the 9 second run at Baytown.

Hey Viren, Sath Sri Ekal !

hope you understand i tried phonetic

 

YO pagong.. chill out bro... i just called him out to get his attention and to ask him an honest question if he had a site not cuz i haven't seen his car yet.. u need to back off aight...

anyways b18bturbo, nice setup, how soon does ur turbo spool up? i had a straight t4 too but hadn't put it in b4 i changed it out to a t3/t4.. i might go back to the t4 though maybe...

lates..

 

i think so... i think the NDRA association will be there.

The turbo spools fine spools right around 4200 rpm i rev my car out to around 11k or so when i shift . It makes power all the way up there so i am not really concered about the spooling habits.

I launch of the two step and i built boost in 1st right off the line so really its like coming out with 20psi right off the line and jut hooking up

b18bturbo, can you share with us what's a good rpm to set the 2 step to?

 

depends on track conditions. I would start of at 6800 rpm. And work your way either up or down depending on how you car is setup. I usaully launch mine at 7200rpm and remember i have the tilton carbon clutch whihc means that i really can rev the poo poo out of it and it wont burn it up.

 

okay i have real technical question for you. you're running FAST right? I've been thinking of doing a two-step on my car for awhile and one issue I thought of is that in two step operation the motor is basically dropping a spark every one in awhile. with that thought in mind, wouldn't that unburned gas cause the FAST o2 to read falsy rich and pull fuel, possibly causing a lean condition?

I spoke with Craig Smith at FAST about that issue and they told me to basically set the o2 closed loop operation above the two step rpm to avoid this complication.

What's your thoughts?

 

I took about 12 degrees of timing out and build boost at that given rpm window. If you give me you speed pro file ill show you what you have to do.

 

thats awesome, i really appreciate it!

 

its pretty simple... those guys at FAST are not too knowledgable about the 4cyl tuning.

Just let me know when your car is running.
