through the tune we were pretty conservitive with timing. AFR in boost is pretty flat at 11.3-11.8

the stk trubo showed 15 lbs at the compresser outlet pipe and 13 at the intake manifold

i can post logs and tune info if i could figure that out...

some video fun :)

Looking good!

In the video of the boost gauge what is that moving around at the front end of the valve cover?

Just a piece of wire loom, it looks like.


I'm impressed at how well that turbo held 15psi all the way up. :)

Correct ! its actually electrical tape.. hahah

the boost gauge was right off the steel pipe off the stk turbo and yeah held 15 psi but at the intake we were only getting 13 lbs due to the drop over the large intercooler. the turbo was at peak/ lost efficency at that level anyways..

I didn't realize your just over in MI. You ever go to Gingerman Raceway in South Haven? The lovfab guys are awesome btw!

I haven't been down there with the MSM but maybe next year ... I've Ben friends with Cody from Lovefab since 04
