Log it first. I assume you aren't just using the gauge. If you are get a map sensor.

Using the Zeitronix ZT-2 with the MAP sensor to do the readings. Pretty consistant from which was a log going from a 3 gear pull all the way to 5th. 21.8/21.9 was consistent max boost. Did a couple more readings and it's now 22.3max psi.

Link to Log

In general, the car does feel sluggish compared to when I first got it back. We are talking about a 60whp difference.

It probably wouldnt hurt to take your MBC apart and clean it and add a little bit of lube to the ball.

Looks like it turned out to be a good meet. I will try and make the next one. What's the deal with two one arm guys being there? Lol

Josh, it was nice meeting you at north park. Sorry I had to run and couldn't talk more. I wasn't feeling great snd needed water.

You guys missed a great auto-x. I had to represent the evo community by taking out the Z06.


Fwiw, I turn the boost up or down to keep it between 26-29 . I have never logged the car when doing this and it runs fine. Less logging more driving! Altho I use my nose to determine if I'm running rich and can turn it up more. It's seems to work for me. Lol

Patrick, Is the race car heading out Thursday night? If so I should be able to make it to lend a hand. I won't push you too hard that first time out.

I'm definitely down for a monthly meet. I pretty much never get out, so that would be a good release once a month.

FP Black and yes 93 octane. Did a couple more pulls around 10:30. Boost is up to 22.3 peak, so a little higher, but not much. Still about 4psi off when originally tuned.
