Finally got my car tuned on 8 psi. I planned to tune on 10 psi but it would creep up to 11 psi and then fall back down to 8 almost immediately. I think these numbers are pretty good for only having 4 dyno pulls and hurrying to get out of there before the dyno closed. This was tuned by 93turbo16 in 100 degree heat with 90% humidity. On 10 psi, do you guys think I'll make it to the magical number of 200whp?

 

good numbers john tuned my car too, yours is tuned extremely conservitavely based on the a/f's so i'm sure 200is in your future

 

Great numbers man! I have the same problem with mine spiking to what i want it to go to and then dropping back to 8psi...even with a 10psi spring .

how do you figure the a/f's to be conservative? They look right around 12:1 to me. Extremely conservative would be more like 10.5:1-11:1.

 

Love the torque coming from those 15g's.

 

i have my 15g set to 8psi and it spikes to 10 for a second when i floor it and creeps back to 8psi. kinda like it actually. nice little boost before youre in the desired boost pressure.

 

Your WG actuator is on its way out.
Make sure you keep an eye on it.

My pal blew his motor with greddy kit recently due to this.
Spiked to around 15 in 5th gear.

i agree MBC's tend to do that...

what i found helpful was placing the controller closer to the vacuum source and shortening the amount of vacuum line. see if it helps....

-Rage


BTW-sweet numbers(PA MATT), but i think u can do better. if u have time check my threads on my SOHC numbers from back BACK in the day

mine is already within a couple inches form it so...

 

Well my pals was a used kit.
With no MBC at all.
Just kept getting worse day by day.

I wasnt saying ur kit is ****, just letting you know a personal experience. Thought id just contribute.

 

I just bought an ebc, but the mbc i have is all the way up on the firewall so could be part of the problem. That and its a homemade controller. John also told me that he could have gotten more power from other places had we had more time.

 

I went ahead and just got rid of a boost controller and adjusted the wastegate arm instead. Worked much better for me. I had tried a turbo xs hp and a greddy profec a. Had problems with both.

 

decent numbers...at 10psi i'd expect 200hp and some...
