[ford number 1]

Ok untill we can remove the turbo and port the waste gate more the minimum we can get away with ATM is 398RWKW @ 15 - 16 psi slightly climbing as rpm increases. Might add a little boost at the start and round it up to a whole 400 just for the number crunchers.

Gee mate I really feel sorry for you with the minimum power you can get away with ..

Seriously though that is an awsum result and the writeup/pictures are very informative

Wow, that's awesome power!! Well done

[jetute]

any further news???

when are we going to the track to run some numbers???????????

Great to see you got the wheel in motion James.

Does this mean you will be at Willowbank for test n tune this wednesday night!

Cheers Paul

Inital runs were in the high 300 low 400 RWKW but boost was rising with zero waste gate command !!

These Plasmaman kits flow a lot of air, I think a external waste gate is most likely the go. Tried split dump and single 4 inch dump both from Xforce but the turbine gas flow was still too high there-for the turbo made more boost at the top end even though the waste-gate was open 100%.

After tuning vonn was able to run a nice 380ish RWKW tune on 15-16psi with a little timing removed, as the fuel supply is still to be sorted (Read not fitted yet).

Will post graphs later

Well done, awesome result. Amazing how much progress has been made with all the R&D gone into the right places.

Looking forward to the final results. Will have some unbelievable power.

FANTASTIC!

I'd hate to have to put up with a lazy 400RWKW.

Nice work

To give you a bit of idea.. When I removed my wog cooler, and switched to the nizpro cooler / plenum setup, I could NOT get any less than 17psi boost with 0 duty, and that was after I modified my wastegate the first time..

To control the boost, I had to put a cat back into the exhaust.. Then boost was setup to 15psi, with approx 70% duty at 5000rpm (12psi actuator)

After I removed my turbo the second time, re-ported it MORE, and contoured the port towards the flange of the turbo, opened it right up, really only leaving about 1-2mm of seat left, then put it on the car.. I put it all back together, and I found it peaked LESS boost than before. I had to re-tune it to give it MORE duty cycle than before to bring it back to 15psi..

Then I removed the cat, and crossed my fingers (please no more 17psi with 0 duty)..

And presto, it spiked to 17psi as it come on boost, and the beauty of using closed loop boost control, it stablised back to 15psi boost..

I then retuned it by lowering the duty cycle all over, especially at approx 3500rpm where boost comes on so it doesnt spike past 15psi

Beautiful.. Perfect 15psi boost control

EDIT: how much was it opened.. Like my original mistake? or right up leaving 1 to 2mm seat? with conturerd towards the flange... I have no regrets on how big I ported mine.. considering I already saw heat cracks with 3-4mm worth of seat, I though, its just gonna crack anyways at standard size..

WELL DONE MATE .

Imagine what it would put out with the xtra timing .

[EZ2CME]

Wow they are some impressive figures. Enjoy
