lol!!!!
Helllllooooooo!
Robin and I are running the same boost setting, but with slightly different timing and fuel figures.
I am running Boost - 6, Timing - 5, Fuel, 8.
I expected more than 245.3hp, but I'm not too fussed I guess! I had predicted around the low 250's. But who knows....maybe on a colder, less humid day I would have got 251! Curves look nice, I'll post a photo of them later. Hitting around 291ft/lb of torque which is ok.
To confirm: I do not have an intercooler. Merely Stg2 Revo, TBE APR and Carbonio.
Echoing what Steve said for a fair comparison all cars must run together under the same conditions/rollers for it to be fair, which is obviously much easier said than done!!!
Keith at JKM said that if I was to put a full intake system on there such as the Forge/Evoms, then I could expect a 7-8hp gain immediately! But then, I have to think about the fuelling issues from the stock fuel pump not being able to cope with the increased demand on fuel. Vicious circle isnt it!!!
As Robin has said, running Boost 6 is ensuring that the turbo is still running at around 70% headroom, which is good to know.
Keith said that originally he ran my car at Boost 7, and it felt a lot quicker than at boost 6, but then he saw that the fuel pressure was falling when the car was loaded, therefore potentially leading to fuel cuts/misfire - which isn't what I want!
I agree with Joe, in that the intercooler will probably make a small difference in overall hp.
Good to see you folks again, apologies that I had to shoot off, had quite a busy day.
