Skids4kids in the mid....not the bum like some Member 609 Member For: 10y 11m 24d Gender: Male Posted 26/09/13 12:34 PM Share Posted 26/09/13 12:34 PM Nah 25psi is fineThat much boost on a stock turbo is pointless and just creates excessive heat for no or less gain. Well out of its efficiency range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of trying a few things, pumping some psi into it, and see how it reacts. The tuner should have had all scenario's tried and tested, so when the customer came to pick the car up, he can explain and demonstrate why the car is set up the way it is. Eg customer asks why isn't it running 20psi? Won't the turbo and mods support that?Tuner response:Well I tried that, the car seemed to not make the expected power, here is a graph demonstrating relative afr, psi, and power output. But if you try a new cat (for example) I'd expect it to make more, or handle 20psi.When I pick my car up from my tuner, I know my tuner has my car running at its optimum, and has tried all avenues to get the most power out of it, safely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH8TOADS Silver Donating Members 3,618 Member For: 18y 9m 8d Gender: Male Location: OZ Posted 27/09/13 04:29 AM Share Posted 27/09/13 04:29 AM It's a stock bottom end....400kw is what some would call a safe limit. Just because there are a number of members running good numbers on a stock bottom end doesn't mean it can be safely flogged.This is not a place to discuss why a tuner hasn't turned up the wick....It's all speculation and no meaningful info. Time to talk to your tuner and report back. I mean this in the nicest possible way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice your concerns to him directly, there may be a reason to why he left it how it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
