Hey guys, not sure if this is a repeated topic again. I feel that my 34 is underpowered. Just want to check with anyone out there with a 34 having a turbo back, pod, 8PSI, stock turbo.

My question is, 2nd gear, at 4000RPM, what speed are you doing? As for my car, i'm doing 60km/h. Might be me being paranoid but how fast do u guys go at that gear on that amount of revs?

Cheers

PS: I know i can change the turbo or up the boost if i want to go faster

Do'snt matter what Turbo or Boost you run...,!

If in 2nd gear at the moment you are doing 60kmh at 4000rpm, you will still be doing 60 kmh at 4000rpm in 2nd with 30psi of boost and a T88 Turbo........You will just get there quicker.

What you are describing is gearing which 'does not' change according to power levels.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
