    ~1.5kg/cm2, right around 22-24 psi. Pump gas. I think the sodium ex. valves help keep it alive...there's more info on my silly cardomain page, and the vgarage page...
    '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
    '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

      Well, the dyno is booked for the entire next week. So, it'll be a while until I get more tuning done. On the bright side, I passed emissions today by just running closed-loop at 14.7. Passed with flying colors at the 25mph test and right at the CO% limit at the 15mph test.

          Just wanted to give you some well deserved congrats, since it looks like you picked up ROTM. That engine bay and setup is just disgustingly sick
          Well deserved win IMO. And good luck getting the car going the way you want it sounds like it should be a tire frying beast

                  More Dyno Tuning 02/28/2008

                  So, today I pretty much finalized the tuning of my car. Result: 343whp/318wtq at 22-23psi. I purposely made it build up the boost a little slower because the sudden rush of power was causing the clutch to slip just a little bit every now and then.

                  Here is the dyno sheet of a 4th gear pull:


                  And, here is a short video of two dyno pulls ~7mb (right-click, save as...):

                      Awesome results Ferdi. What did you change from your last run aside from the onset of boost?

                        Some timing, but mainly leaned out the AFR from low 11's to high 11's. And, my last dyno pull was done in 3rd gear, but I am not sure how much that really affects the dyno numbers, other than the turbo spooling later in 3rd versus 4th.

                          The engine is always loaded more in a higher gear ... which results in more power produced if everything can keep up.
