More boost = more HP ???

Hi Valmes,
As has been said earlier dont stop the up dates. Have been reading your thread as soon as I laid eyes on it.
VERY VERY VERY INTERESTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Especially as I am getting ready a bigger turbo to go on my car. Have got most of all the other necessary bits to go with it also.
So, as I have said above ( as others ) Please do put any updates on here to keep all informed.

I think I am done with updates this year. I've got my silencer in my exhaust pipe (I am talking about Legnum here... ) and we get some snow now and then with temperatures around 0+2 C during the day and -5-8 C at night.

I've got an exhaust leak somewhere, if I can find it until tomorrow, will try to get rid of that and install LM-1 for the last time to check my AFRs... I might try to get my Target AFR map tuned too... will see.

In the mean time, I don't recon if I've posted this before, but here you go - eMU Launch Control works!

second fuel pump wasted in a couple of months!!!
Only got one try (AFRs at 10.5-11.3) - 110mph... but ET is slower.

Apparently Walbros don't like to be starved for fuel and get damaged fast if you boost your car with not a lot of fuel in the tank.

Who ever got the idea that our stock ECU cuts fuel at 7400 rpm?
As much as I want to belive that, from the EMU logs it seems like stock ECU cuts fuel at 7200 RPM, same as on 3000GT VR-4/GTO... if it wasn't boost related fuel cut.

I imagine there wouldn't be much difference in quarter mile time with only another 200rpm in each gear, and the reduced reliability from running the engine that fast probably makes it not worthwhile at all.

You could install an aftermarket ecu of course

Nice run Valmes !

I do have an e-manage Ultimate and can move rev limit...
I will set it to 8200-8500 rpm and will see if it will have any effect on ET and traps.

I don't know if you are brave or mad, but you are certainly a pioneer! Let us know what happens!!

[bradc]

He is a brave and mad pioneer Lets hope nothing explodes

opps! posted twice

Are you just looking for something to rebuild over the winter???, that needle moves pretty fast up round there, tricky doing your gear changes spot on without over revving (even more!), good Luck
