[7/10/14 update] Just something I noticed... I am trying to limit my torque to levels safe with a stock motor so about 9psi and 3700 rpm I am starting to limit my boost with the EBC. If I weren't doing so I imagine that my spool would look a little more conventional albeit a bit late compared to others.

Here is my turbo spool data for my BEGi S6 kit GT2860 turbo with Tial 38mm external wastegate with 8.7 psi spring. Full 3" catless exhaust is causing boost creep up to 11.5 to 12.0 psi even with the 8.7 psi spring in the wastegate.

Started runs from 1500 RPM up to a hair over 7000 in 4th gear on a 6 speed with 4.3 rear gear.

2000 1.5 psi
2500 2.7 psi
3000 4.5 psi
3500 7.5 psi Wastegate is cracking open here with the 8.7 psi spring.
4000 10.0 psi
4500 10.8 psi
5000 11.2 psi
5500 11.7 psi
6000 11.3 psi
6500 10.6 psi
7000 11.2 psi

I am wondering if with a manual boost controller I can improve spool up without making the boost creep worse.

What is your actual boost vs RPM? I just installed this same turbo and am curious as to how it looks on your 1.8 compared to my 1.6.

Also, that spot where your AFRs flatlined is hurting your spool. Do you know how fat it actually was there? Probably in the 9's? That dip in the TQ curve from 35-4500RPM is related. Any particular reason you made it that rich when you were tuning it?

 

I got the car the way it sits. I had a shop run a diagnostic dyno to see where it stands. We were surprised at the numbers but I have to get the software for adaptronics so we can adjust fire. That was just a diagnostic run.

I have some work to do tuning the EBC between 3-4000 rpm, I can definitely reach full boost by around 3200.

 

Mr aceduce802, perhaps you'd like to share with the class why we are not seeing a boost/rpm comparison? And furthermore, why in god's name did you choose 3rd (or 3th gear as you put it) , as clearly this isn't a 1:1 ratio as stated at the beginning of this thread?
We enjoy people thinking outside the box on their turbo builds, but as an engineer you should know to keep the data similar for comparison.

 

Boost/rpm is shown in the bottom graph, the dotted line. This is a log in 3rd because I haven't had the chance to safely log a 4th gear pull. There are others in the thread that have posted 3rd gear pulls, so there is data to compare to. However, I do understand that I don't have to take it to redline in fourth gear to show spool, so I will grab that data.

 

if you want your data to be relevant please do it in 1:1 gear and start at 2k rpm.

please. otherwise its pretty much useless

Much better. And looks like the turbo comes on fairly quick, very similar to a t25

 

Yes I'm very happy with the response. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a compressor map for the 20t, but I used a 19t map and it stays in the efficiency range just like a gt2560r, except it seems to have more potential at higher boost levels. I'm way too excited to build the motor, throw in a 6 speed, run a 3" exhaust, and turn it up. I was planning on doing a full 3" back exhaust first, but I don't see the real reason at this point, if I'm already at 230 whp with good spool.
