sweet, ive been reading about tuning stuff toojaydece wrote:<GB> wrote:any updates justin?
Hey GB? Ummmm not really.....
Been playing with learning view, rom raider and logging and also learning more about tuning....especially in relation to cold starts values & protocols....e85 can be a bitch to crank and start on really cold days.....learning heaps atm though...all good fun![]()
Car is going in for a fine tuning session on the 21st of May for e85 and prem 100 and all round look over the car....Danny wants the car over a couple of days..
Also, currently investigating and reseaching what external wastegate setup I'm going to do via size, increase rear housing, external gate at rear housing or up pipe, wastegate brands, pre load spring etc etc...
Thats pretty much it....I'm being egged on to start on suspension and cosmetic mods....but its not really on my priority list atm....
I really want to finsh up the engine mods 1st then see if I want to move on to the rest of the car?
But so far soo good....no problems....really enjoying the car

What rpm are you at when it kicks you in the back?

nope dont see myself going twistmount...if I was going to do it...i would do it on another car or If I blow this one....the car is setup enough it's not worth changing now...
my turbo is: ATP Garrett GTX3071r A/R 0.72-0.78 cant exactly remember now
my turbo is internal as well and with the amount of boost running, looking at my graphs and comparing internal Vs external.....you basically want to go external....some cars good gains are made...some hardly...but helps maintain boost, prevents spiking/creeping and better flow...
bigger turbo? what are you trying to achieve....bigger is not always better GB....as you would know....pick a target? say 350kw? and stick to it....find a turbo that has the efficiency for that power output...
is the car for daily? track? drag? all these factors will play a part....you might want to keep your current turbo and just upgrade the rear housing? many options....I'm sure you'll find it and work it out...good luck mate!![]()
