Tried to get a good video of how my turbo spools. 13psi, T3 Super 60 .48, tiny 1.6L engine.

mmmmmm boooooost!!!!!!



higher res: http://www.boostedmiata.com/videos/1_2_3_boostgauge.wmv



ps, there is no "lag" in 1st gear, i simply didn't press the throttle, when the boost kicks in is when i went 100%, and yes I have the log to prove it.

 

Gee looks like the engine is pretty cold

 

needz moar powahz!!11!!
Nice! I want boost!

 

Can't be a ricer without non-functional gauges can I!!!

 

kinda slow...

 

Now is the time for Kurt to strike!

 

more more more - I likee
I just went out but the cam needed charging.

 

Ok Mister.

first clip illustrates how i make boost in each gear at lowish rpm (3k-5k in 1,2,3 3k-4k in 4th).

second clip is a third gear pull from 3k to 5.3k, when i hit 14.6psi and triggered my boost cut (still tuning my ebc). holding 13psi flat as of that pull.

third clip is a nothing special, trying a horribly ridiculous camera angle

 

I like your guage placement. Car looks pretty fun to drive too.

 

we really need two more cameras - another one on the dash gauges (tach) and then one on the road... ok maybe three, another for the nose cam

 

Vewry nice, but that sure looks like a narrow band in the center gauge slot

 

a narrowband gauge yes, but one that refreshes at a surprisingly alarming rate and displays amazing accurate readings.

 

oh oh oh, now i annotated the video.....even better!

 

aw it only works if you watch form youtube....

 

My boost takes longer then yours to spool and im only at 6psi!! Stupid Greddy downpipe

 

you want more awesome?

if that gauge has a separate signal ground you can do this:
(1/4W resistors)
(not responsible if you blow your junk up)





It will change the response characteristic of your gauge but it'll move more linearly and follow your WBO2.

I did this with my SplitSecond and it worked ok.

Does your meter have numbers on it?

 

well it does, and it outputs pretty freaking fast, faster then a AEM refreshes, and no resistors are needed....since the lc-1 has a programmable output.

you guys gotta watch that last video within youtube and see my badass annotations.

there's a classic one in there.

 

Your setup comes on boost fast. I like it

 

You drift king.

wouldnt call that dirfting much....
