Damn. damn damn.
I will datalog my car for sure, but I think the twins can't get to 14psi til after 4000. They make like 5psi really low but then sorta stay there until the revs climb.
Anyone want a TT setup? Maybe Mark will buy one of the 1548's. Partial trade for a VVT head?
I'll use the stainless absurdflow manifold that I'm making and the 2560 off my subaru. I bet artie is getting anxious.

I performed some mild headwork and I gained a touch better spool.....this was with a 2.25" borla exhaust.
this is no headwork with a MBC compared to headwork with an open wastegate line.... what can clearly tell is the headwork helped spool the turbo a touch earlier....you can also see my boost creep started to appear
upgraded to a 3" magnaflow....the difference is clear:

2700 3psi
3000 5psi
3300 7psi
3600 10psi
3767 11.6psi
3788 12.9psi
3861 14.0psi

3rd gear, 70*F morning
in fourth, log shows spool is about 150rpm faster.
can you redo with those numberz please.
