Mick_o Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 OK OK lol........ Well ill start talking bout the boring stuff first like how it drives off boost haha! Im actually very surprised at how torquey it feels off boost it almost feels as pokey as my FG falcon ute and oddly enough doesnt seem my fuel economy has really changed from 200kw-288kw in fact so far it seems slightly better now with an hour or so on the dyno and bit of cruising and giving it a squirt here and there i done a smidge over 200km on half a tank . Now to the fun part BOOST! Ok so 1st gear doesnt really exist as you probably cover 20m before you are looking for 2nd lol in second gear it really starts to haul ass at bout 3800 now and is breaking traction at bout 4200 with my kaaz 2way and 255s and it doesnt stop pulling all the way to the limiter and if i stay on it into 3rd gear she chirps and spins for a second then hooks up and away she goes and my evc 6 is registering 22psi at around the 3500 mark! I havent given her a good run in 3rd as you can imagine you are in the bye bye license zone with some spirited driving in the 1st few gears with a few revs in 3rd there arent many numbers left for the needle to go on the 180km/h speedo. Id like to organise a cruise 1 weekend soon so if there are any sydney people reading this get at me and lets talk bout a nice drive to a nice destination.......... Now mr GTScotT im thinking you should have a tinker with my boost controller when we both got some free time cos i think there is probably a little bit of tweaking to be done with that controller lol stop talking about the bloody HTTP and talk about the bloody car!

Mick_o Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 Curious to know why responses are mixed as to whether the adjustable exhaust cam helps boost on earlier because im trying to do everything possible to reduce lag in my car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/375232-garrett-gtx3071r/page/19/#findComment-6181809 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRob Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Probably more chance of gaining everywhere from playing with the inlet. And a MAC valve connected to the G4 would be a cheaper and easier way of controlling boost.
