Bumping my own thread to ask a different, yet relevant question:
Once these modifications have been done, is there any reason I will need to treat the car differently on cold start?
Right now it lives outside (fk my life gotta move out lol) so the engine itself is as cold as it's going to get each morning. I start it, allow it to run for 10 seconds, roll down my driveway (no throttle needed) then off down the road. The engine will be idling for roughly 90 seconds before it sees any throttle or load, at which point I take it down the street, not going above -0.5 bar vacuum, until I've driven roughly 1km, at which stage I come to the hill up the highway. At this point I will try to keep it out of positive manifold pressure until water temp is 65+
I use boost to determine how much throttle it's getting and therefore load, and I won't take it above 2500rpm until I go up the highway, at which stage it won't go above 4000rpm.
Should I just treat it exactly the same with new turbo etc, or different? Hell, am I even doing it right as I am now?
Thanks
