Hops Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 230 whp at 7 psi! Still working on fueling, now we're gonna pump up the boost. The responsiveness should feel like a naturally aspirated motor... I hope! Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBlueGT Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Waiting for 560 some odd days.................. Hurry up! Oh, and post some data logs from the drive home.

Hops Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 Yeah sorry phone died and we were limited by the shtupid wastegate spring. Only holds 16 psi. Raffi is shipping me the stronger spring tomorrow. Still, car runs amazingly. So f ucking responsive! We hit just over 300 whp, but with 24 psi we should get close to 400. Wastegate duty is at 95% at the moment. I'll post graphs when I get to my computer. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hops Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 Now I keep throwing P0852. Neutral switch input high circuit. Did some research and nobody really knows how to cure it other than disabling it. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I have encountered this on AT cars after tuning. Normal routine is to verify and then disable the CEL. Yet to have it happen on an MT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 Disabled the code. Had a nice drive up to Alta. Finally get it registered on Saturday. Final numbers (for now) are about 315 whp and 280 torque. Apparently this turbo will have higher horsepower output than torque. The graphs are .xps files that I can't open on my Mac so I'll have to jump on the gf's PC and upload them later. Next on the list: Wastegate spring and an AEM map sensor. Should be looking at 380 whp easy. Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hops Posted June 1, 2012 Author Share Posted June 1, 2012 Alright, who the hell knows how to host a .xps file so I can post the graph? Can Photobucket do it? Buy my cars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jduani Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Open up excel, Take a screen shot, Crop with Paint, Save and upload seems like the least headache. Awesome Numbers so Far! Sounds Fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hops Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 Littleblue is going to attempt to host the graph for me. I finally got around to checking it out and we ended at 277 whp and 307 torque. After being in 350 whp LGTs locally, it feels better... given the responsiveness. New wastegate actuator is already on the way! I'm hoping I can install it without removing the turbo . Buy my cars!

monkiboym Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 chad, so you made 227whp/307wtq at 16psi, correct? at about 18 tapering to 15psi i made ~340whp on a dynojet that reads a stock GR at 210whp so i think your figures sound about right and i'm definitely eager for your 24psi run on e85. how much longer after actuator arrival is the tune? and i had to thread the actuator rod after a couple runs on the dyno to adjust it and while not easy, it is possible to remove and install without removing the turbo. we used a flexible shaft mechanical finger to get those two smaller nuts out without dropping - it made the job much easier. this guy: http://www.tptools.com/eccStoreImages/product_images/Images/ct-9435-fingers_L.jpg i look forward to your dyno plot being posted from this run so i can compare and i hope you have your final results before mine. good luck - sir!

Balrock Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 2 MOAR weeks, you killing us! If my engine ever blew I don't think I would have the patience for all that you have done. I guess that is what pioneering is all about. Work out all the bugs and get a kit together for the rest of us to make it easy! That would be great:wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian. Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Chad, I converted the .xps to a .pdf file and I will attach it here. Unfortunately we just changed our ftp management process so I cannot get this hosted yet. Everyone should be able to see the attached file...not bad power for 13.5psi by redline. Take care, Christian.Baseline 20-13psi.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSFW Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 you giving this board bad reputation with comment like that ...says guy who drop spam in middle of other guy's build thread [...] Raffi is shipping me the stronger spring tomorrow. Still, car runs amazingly. So f ucking responsive! We hit just over 300 whp, but with 24 psi we should get close to 400. What fuel are you using? Pump gas or E85? I know the original plan was for E85 but that was, well, quite a while ago. And are you using water/meth injection? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
