Are You Suppose To Get Boost On Idle?

[im late]

Hey Guys, Just wondering if your suppose to hit boost just by reving it I just know a few ppl's r33's that do and mine and a few other blokes dont?

Is there a Problem if it dosn't?

Cheers Guys

There is no problem if your car does not.

That is because most likely the r33's you witnessed probably have launch control. This feature is usually avaliable on some HI end ECUs (e.g. Haltech e11V2, HKS F-Con Pro V).

Launch control enables you to build boost (usually 50$ - 70% of you max boost capacity) before you move.

This is so much fun to have..............

Does your car have a stock ECU?

how bout spooling can u guys make your car spool on idle pretty loud?

if you have severly retarded ignition timing, you can make it "spool" at idle, thats how most of the aftermarket ecu's antilag systems work. When the clutch is pressed in it runs stupidly retarded timing and you can get boost.

In a normal setup, you wont get boost at idle. As mentioned you may get a psi or 2 when you hold your foot flat in neutral but thats about it. Boost is a result of load

nup dosnt have an aftermarket one! Wish it did but like I said before I was playing around with my bleed valve and some how it made 10pound just by reving it on idle! Does that mean it was running heaps more boost that 10 if I was driving it?

Any ideas on air blowing OUT of a leaking bov at idle? my thoughts were it should be a vacuum leak and as such sucking air IN at idle..

Maybe the RB30 is that efficent that it's flowing enough exhaust gas at idle, and the stock turbo is small enough that said amount of exhaust flow will spin the turbo fast enough to displace a positive amount of air?
