topspeed tune this afternoon

I'm about to head up to TS in a bit for a protune on the fozzy. If anyones in the area, feel free to stop by!

 

Awesome man! Wish I was off work

 

so pretty disappointing day with scott.
1st pull was promising with 21X/235 picking up almost 20 in hp/torque. unfortunately that would be about the best of the day

every subsequent pull afterwards, went downwards. boost wouldn't peak past around 16.5 and taper down to 7 and/or 8.

scott pulled off the wastegate vacuum to see what would happen...16 lbs peak 7/8 taper. that should have resulted in infinite boost but nothing different happened. so that made scott wonder about the wastegate itself. scott adjusted the wastegate arm a full 3 turns...talk about a soft spring! it helped alittle but not much.



soooooooooooooooooooooooooo a vf39 swap, walbro and retune is scheduled for next wednesday morning

 

That is bad news. Hope you get it figured out.

 

Bad in which way? Unfortunate or crappy luck

 

Bad news that the car is not making the power. I am sure a new actuator will fix it.

 

once again, if anyone is in the area this coming wednesday, i'll be at TS from 8:30 till whenever we finish. so stop by

 

did you look at the old turbo yet? Was it cracked or something???

 

Its coming off wednesday when we swap in the 39. Its a bad wastegate and actuator

 

Man, your luck sounds about as bad as mine. I hope you have better luck this time around.

 

235/7-ish and mid 260's in torque. i can deal with it, especcialy with the slushbox
