The forums will be offline for maintenance on Friday 15th November at 10pm for up to an hour. Thank you for your patience.
Thanks mate, few bits and pieces left to do then its saving time once againt to do some head work on the car, so im on the lookout for a large port head now.
Dyno time soon as well.
Im not really chasing a figure, more a case of making sure its running ok and safely. But if i was to hazard a guess on a figure it would be in the range of 350-400 and i would be very happy.
Im running 1.5bar and no timing advance (taken a couple of degrees out for safety at the moment as well).
Laggy Lag Lag and no scream!.... N/A all the way fella
Update on my trackday bookings fella, I wanted to do one this week or next but they all at Oulton Park or Cadwell and with at least a 3 & half to 4 hour drive with the trackday starting at 9am stuff getting up that early! Will be a mess half way through the day! lol.
Found that BHP Trackdays are doing an event at Castle Combe the 27th of this month £195 I think! Up for that? They did have afternoon seesions but they booked up.... nothing mention about morning sessions tho???

Quick log in 4th whilst trying to set up my EBC.

His was 1.9 tho, which would help. Ive not seen any logs from it or any other 3071.
Any thoughts on what it could be?
EBC so a little irrelevant. That's surely the ebc that's doing that.....? No way it should be spooling that late....
Any thoughts what I can do or check? I could run it straight off the wastegate to see if that spools just as bad.
I'm gonna try it off the n75 and using a mbc after I do a run on base pressure.
I need to make sure my hoses to the external gate are correct.
Ive got a hose direct from pressure source to the bottom of the gate and a hose from the ebc solenoid to the top connection on the gate.
Boost leak maybe?
Don't think it's an exhaust side leak as my AFR seems right, wouldn't an exhaust leak read lean on the gauge as it pulls in air like a Venturi?

thats spools more like my gt35, but slightly slower than that too.
its a 0.63 hotside yea?
whats afr doing during spool... if too rich it will slow its spool badly.
my external gate is plumbed single port.. into top port. lag could be gate slightly open perhaps.
what pressure is actuator only?

I'm not 100% sure, only marking I can see on the inlet side is 0.60a/r.
Afr on spool is around 13 I'm sure.
I run the bottom port direct to pressure source as per tial instructions. Worth trying without?
Around 13psi, so I'm sure it's 0.9bar.
Thanks for the help again bill.
I would run single port to prove it myself..
hotside should have the a/r cast into it somewhere

Ok. I'll try that. I'll get out one night and log more and have a play with things.
I can see some marking on the casting but none that resemble a/r just above the garret logo. Unless it's round the back hidden. I'm pretty sure it's 0.63 tho bill, need to check hoochs thread again I think.

Ok tried some things out briefly with limited road and time.
EBC connected to just the top port as you said Bill. Made no difference to spool or boost control.
Then turned the EBC off, connected to the top port. 30+psi. Still laggy.
EBC off, connected to the bottom port. 30+psi. Still laggy.
When i got home i took a video of the idle AFR, which is bouncing between 14.2 and 15.3 ish. The boost gauge ad EBC doesnt seem to be as low as my old setup which might indicate a leak somewhere which will probably hurt spool.
Im going to do a pressure test on the weekend to see if i got any leaks.
Had a look at my fuel trims and theyre 1.9% and 19.7%. No fault codes whatsoever. Not done a TB alignment and i need to regap my plugs.
