Okay, so I have read up on a lot of things and understand that what we are trying to achieve during tuning is a great curve and nice AFR to prevent catastrophic failure and reach optimal ignition firing. Now, I have 850cc injectors which I understand the scaling with etc. But I have really yet to find an explanation of what you do when you want to run a car on higher boost and I am just trying to learn how all of this works. Most all of the tutorials are for stock boost....

So question is.... When you have a turbo and buy a waste gate set to 25lbs say for example an FP green and simply want maybe 475hp even though I am tuning wouldn't the 25lbs trigger boost cut from the ecu? I know the loads will HAVE to be higher. I know how yo BEGIN tuning thanks to nj1266 thread and Merlin guides which I am re-reading. But what actions or formulas do you incorporate to make more power / incorporate higher boost?

I hope someone can point me in the right direction or explain easily. Thanks in advance

 

I figured this one out. You change the load for the "Boost Limit" setting inside EcuFlash to barely exceed your loads at your current boost levels. So raise them, run logs to check your loads with proper boost, then set the load limits a touch higher than the actual load limits you are reaching just incase you DO over-boost. Doing it in such a way will prevent the safety precautions pre-programmed into the ECU from not functioning. AKA: It was programmed in, utilize it.

Answered my own question to possibly help someone in the future.

Edit: "Boost control load offset" is added directly to "Boost Limit" loads so you will also need to base your loads off these two figures combined.

Yes, I realize this stuff is already covered but maybe if someone searches for this in the future they will find this and say... "Oh!"
