If you want to get a racepak dash you will need to get all of their damn sensors/modules/v-net bullshit.

It's great but OUT OF THE *** EXPENSIVE

To connect it to Megasquirt you need this -
Racepak EFI Interface Module

I think we are gonna try and hit 30lbs

If the turbo holds together and I'm not maxing out the fuel pump. It maybe time for a Bosch 044 before we go turning it up. Thoughts on that Vlad?

If the turbo holds up, definitely.
Seans churbo was just as big as yours and wouldn't go past 22 iirc. Made 360whp though.

This was on a 1.8+longtube. When it hit he would lose traction in 1-4th (crappy tires though)

Me too. I think the 1.6, big turbo, 3.9+5spd is the reason.

1.6 vs 1.8, can't wait.

And another trans eh? lol, things like that make me even more content with staying under 250whp.

Car was moving out pretty good.

So what were you doing when the chunk-a-chunk-a-chunk-a-chunk-a occurred?
