But when the iat's are 25 or below it makes 12psi at an absolute stretch, seeing 8psi commonly on cold nights and 16psi on hot days. Colder temps means more dense air, means more boost.... Right? 🤣 Edited 21/02/21 05:39 AM by biddie_fiddler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an ok way of doing it but more effort is required from your tuner for consistency once modified 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what strategy Rob uses in his tunes, all I know is he uses PCMTEC and that the dyno sheet says its tuned to 16psi, so seeing it run at 8psi had me quite confused. Checked all the IC piping cause I thought I had a boost leak 😂 Secondly, does that mean that with the lower boost on colder nights that its still making the same/similar power compared to what it was tuned to? It doesn't make sense in my head as to why that would be true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or call the tuner to see if it was happening on the dyno or some other random weirdness. Is it a proper boost gauge or obd2 thing. 8psi even in closed loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
