haha i do believe it - i can put on lipstick and eat a maccas breakky on the way to work - let me see u do that hahaha! ;)

apparently autos are quicker - i was going to drag gavin suburu heap of crap one day and between him and justin had this little convo "but hers is auto isnt it" "yeah well actually autos are quciker cos.." "oh yeah they are" <-- didnt end up knowing why the auto is quicker! but not the first time ive heard it.

Yeah Niz, unfortunately there are additional power losses within the auto trans that you don't have in a manual.

Because of the speed that autos change & the fact that they change without you having to lift off the go pedal this can sometimes give them an advantage - depends on the driver.

    • Admittedly in that screenshot its doing about 13psi but later on in the log theres definitely spikes to 16. What is missing though is the massive peak, then a big drop and then a recovery. While it does go a little higher than I would like on base pressure, I think it's reasonably safe to assume that boost control via the mac valve should be a lot easier to control from here on out. I wasn't game to hook up the mac valve today as it's very wet and it's on the verge of fighting traction as it is.
    • I think this is still wrong. There is something crappy with wastegate priority (or the f**king absence of it) if you can't get below nearly double the base spring pressure. But if you're happy with what you've got, upload skid vids now.
    • So a further update for this one. Turbosmart were very gracious and took one look at the wastegate and said this is our original version, we will just replace the entire thing and send it back to you. So I fitted the new wastegate with its new revisions and took it around the block on spring pressure (9 psi spring). Appears the minimum it will do is about 16psi. Keep in mind this is only 2nd and 3rd gear pulls. I think the issue is fixed compared to what it was doing before however I'm happy to provide more logs if anyone thinks theres more to the story to uncover
    • Surely, if you have the indicator in hand and a pair of verniers, you can measure it up and draw your own cut template? I mean, it's got to pretty clear what has to pass through the hole, what has to sit on the outside face of the hole, and what has to be able to pass through and perhaps clip into place on the back side.
    • Man, I hope this one gets finished  i just randomly remembered it the other day and thought I’d check in.
