macka Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 crank the boost up? Or you worried on the street it will go even higher... your cars good for 20+++ PSI why are you limiting to 17?

Guest KILLER-T Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 I was playing around with the timing last wednesday night at the plex i dont want to play around with too many things at once knowing my luck if i gave the timing a few more deg advance and then cranked the boost up my engine would blow up half way down the strip my G/F would kill me she is still going off at me over the last rebuild:argue: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/8519-plex-15th/page/13/#findComment-138144 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 Osc@r, I think Macka was having a go at me and rev, with our stock snails, we haven't yet put our snails on steroids, yet. Macka, what was the best time you ran before you changed your turbo? I didn't think we would have been able to push so deep into the 13's with the stock turbo, but it looks like the 'plex is providing some good times.

osc@r Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Paul.. i thought so but he quoted me when he was having a go at you guys, so i just threw in my 2c's anyway.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Osc@r, with all these 2c we throw in do we get to make a wish? When you and Macka bought your t3/t4 turbos what boost did they say that it could handle?

osc@r Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 OUR T3/T4 turbo's...??? only Mack has one. I have only a pissy little T28/T25G, but he said to me it could run 17psi all day every day, so we'll find out if he was telling the truth soon enough. but after my EBC is sorted out, I'll be chasing a bigger Turb...maybe a HKS GT2535.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 Sorry I thought you both had them, then Macka really should be doing much better than you? 17psi? What boost do you currently run it at, or is it hard to tell with your bleeder/spike valve? When is your EBC getting here, can't wait to see you beat Macka, then he'll have to wind his boost up.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 Works, Good luck, let me know when your going down to the plex, I'll come to see if you improve your times. Macka, I'm not batting for the other side, just promoting some friendly rivalry, you know I love you the most.

rev210 Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 I've had a play with the s-afc II and it seems pretty easy to tune. Without a dyno I have already tuned in some fat-ass power across the rev range, used up a bit of fuel tho'. Richen the bottom end and lean the top end and bingo! The mid range is a little tricky I am quite amazed at the amount of sting the s-afc gets out of the stock motor. I think I'll aim for another 0.4 sec improvement, without toluene, on the good ol' 205's and 10psi.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 rev, let us know when the car will debut with the S-AFCII, I'm sure a 13 flat would be impressive on the stock turbo. How can you monitor the A/F ratio of you car for tuning? or do you adjust the fuel and see if you increase the power? Good luck for the 0.4sec improvement.

rev210 Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 I do it by the old 'drive-feel' way using the knock readout. It's rough but after a while I expect the dyno tune will only get me another 5-10rwhp using the a/f meter,and if it gets me more well I'll be very happy anyway.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 rev, Has the knock readout given you any benefits over the old S-AFC? Does it hook in to the factory knock sensor?

osc@r Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 hahaha oh you cut me deep Mack, you cut me deep. Paul, it spikes at 17 but drops to 14.2 psi . Just can't hold boost at all above 15 psi. poxy bleeder. Should be getting the EBC in about a week. Fingers crossed.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 Osc@r, You sound like you've had your fingers crossed for a while now. The EBC's make a huge difference, holding boost rock solid, will definately make a big improvement to your power output.
