Hey guys,

this is a question out of curiosity not whinging....anyway..

had my car tuned recently and seeing how it responds to holding a constant throttle of 3000rpm+ where my stock turbo has the potential to be @ full boost and then rolling onto throttle vs instant WOT.

I found rolling onto throttle pulled much harder intially compared to WOT which i was expecting.

However i expected using instant WOT to then after hesitating, start pulling just as hard as rolling onto boost but it seemed to pull the same all the way to redline.

So im curious whether thats just the case for turbo cars or its due to my "inferieor, peice of shit, why dont you get a real ecu, SAFC II tune"

Cheers

Pic for all the safc haters :)

It just feels like it is being more responsive when you roll on... I'm sure of you grabbed a stop watch you'd be surprised.

Could be but its quite a noticable difference between being thrown back or not.

Just had car tuned.

Still hesitates...

And you're happy with the tune?

Hesistates may be a poor choice of words.

Cruising above 3k rpm if i then go straight to WOT it will still pull, but incomparison to cruising at the same rpm then rolling onto the throttle to reach WOT, it doesnt pull as hard.

Id expecting rolling onto throttle to reach WOT as opposed to instant WOT to respond better initially but it seems going from cruising to instant WOT makes it pull less all the way to redline not just initially "hesitate" to pull as hard.

I think you're just feeling the sudden rush from the boost build up when you mash the pedal.

Like Joeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy mentioned, just use a stop watch

    • And this is the the thing with a high powered, AWD, heavy car. The engine is easy, the driveline costs just as much as the engine. 🤷‍♂️ Welcome to GTRland. Whatever you think your budget is, double it. Whatever you think your timeline is, triple it.
    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
