10psi according to the previous owner and the boost guage 0.7bar

Haven't had it long enough to get ot on a dyno

But the SAFC is tuned ATM right? I'm not overly confident tuning it further without having some idea of what the fuel curve is like at the moment...

You may be best to just keep the boost at 10psi once the dump is done...

Yeah it is tuned atm and seems pretty good.

Do you know if the boost will rise as a result of the dump pipe?

Having said the tune seems pretty good, I wouldn't know the sound of pinging if it bit me on the ass :blah:

Depends on how good your boost control is... If your using a good EBC, it should be able to keep the boost at what ever level you choose... A bleeder on the other hand is more likely to allow more boost to be produced... Should be able to get rid of any extra boost though depending on the bleed...

Pinging sounds like a rattle in your engine bay... Best way I can describe it... I was chasing down an engine bay rattle for 3 years on a Turbo Laser with no intercooler, blow through carby and 22psi before I worked out what pinging was... :D Oh to be young again!

All posts are guaranteed... Guarantee is not a guarantee... :rofl:

Nice, but are you watching it with a good home theatre system, if not, it just is not the same, need at least a billion watts of speakers pointed at you all going full blast to get the best experiance out of the matrix series :rofl:

It's a Hybrid EBC...seems to hold pretty steady, doesn't spike over0.7 bar

I had a Cordia turbo that was apparently pinging its tits off....didn't realise until a friend who was a marine engineer brought it to my attention....had been thrashing it in that state for over a year so promptly sold it to an unsuspecting Lebanese gentleman (I use that term advisedly)

Nice disclaimer :D

So you need a boost constoller to run the bleed valve

I was under the impression you just split the line, pop the above bleed valve and loosen it for more boost?

like i said before ... a bleed valve is a boost controller. put that in you line between your actuator and comp cover or inlet pipe depending how its setup .... if your still having troubles i suggest you pay someone or get someone who knows about it there when you do it, that way there's no risk of something going wrong ..... bet you really don;t want to fork out for new pistons hey ...

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
