I've increased the boost on the na+t territory and it makes a bit over 300awkw and 600nm on 15psi. As a result the trans needed an update to the tune, which I did this morning. Once again the shifts are quick and crisp and you wouldn't know it's an na trans in there. I think this is where I'll stop the increase in power, it is a na engine after all. When the time is right I'll do some minor engine work to it so it can handle all the boost, but for now it will do.

The lad has his 12th birthday today and he wants steak. Haha I taught him well

@k31th I filled out a bunch of information on a webpage pdf and the farker didn't save to pdf which lost me all the work. Is there anyway of recovering that data?

I would send noods but I don't think there is enough data on the internet to support the file size required for my magnum dong

Inb4 fluff posts an update pic and keef asks for noods

That's gotta be a low ten if you can get it to leave good

Just a break man, there is more to do and fine tuning to be had.

When I worked at a workshop, we would install a boost reference nipple into the front part of the exhaust to diagnose back pressure issues. If a car is making lots of boost and not much power, this is one of the first things to check.

Makes sense to turbo an na car. You can spend under 5k on parts if you shop second hand and if you can fit and tune it yourself, you can have a ripper car for around 10k. Plenty of decent FG na cars out there for cheap and results show that you can make over 400rwkw on the skinny rod engines with E85 or mid 300s on 98. I was thinking I might do that for a daily that is better on fuel than the 2 tonne brick I currently drive.

I have a couple of sets of turbo rods I can use, also a bunch of turbo pistons etc. I could just slap my spool I beam rods in it and a set of turbo pistons, that will keep it safe to make all the power that turbo can throw at it. So far the trans is fine, I've given it a pretty decent tune up and it's behaving itself for now. Obviously that will change if I throw much more power at it but again, I have some bits I can chuck in it to make it stronger without costing anything. It would be better to have a spare engine so I can do the work on one, then swap it over in a day so there isn't much down time. @Typhoon you're selling an engine ain't ya?

Eh she'll be right, as long as I don't do anything too silly with it, it will be fine. I was thinking I'll get another engine as a backup, that's on the cards eventually.

As always a quick check with virtual dyno, now it makes 291awkw at 13.7psi vs the 276awkw it was making at 13.4psi previously. It's also only making 203awkw at 3500rpm vs the 300awkw it did on a cold night a few nights ago. That's what's gonna keep the rods in it lol.
