EVERYONE has at least 91 octane gas. There was absolutely no reason to put 89 octane in it

Also the turbo flows 600-650cfm which comes out to 500ish chp most which is out of its effiency. So please explain to me how this turbo isn't efficient to make 400s rod? Also my adapter I'm using isn't Hahns.

What does 89/91 make 1:1? 90 octane. And I'm sorry to tell you, your incorrect because I've driven across te country many times and they don't have 91 everywhere.

Small town, Minnesota, USA doesnt have 91.

I would think any major populated area would however.

Now why would I do the mix. Because not everyone has the 91 or more. And the gas station didn't have 92 only 91 89 and 87 so I went with a more baseline of what numbers can be hit. I even explained myself on why I did it in the thread. My car is actually quicker now then it was then and I'm on 93 octane 14* mid and 17.5 topend (because I'm not getting kr) but also because I keep my 26 til 5k which i have it go to 24lbs then at 6k I raise it to 26 BECAUSE SOME SURGE!

THANK YOU, SERIOUSLY...

Do you not think that at 16* mid it would be safe(i know every car is different)? thats what i'm on with the stock turbo and 93 gas.
im taking all of my zzp stuff out, and doing a full hahn setup other than the zzp intercooler/downpipe...

so you went to the gas station that had 87, 89 and 92 and mixed 89 and 91? cool story bro. and why do you have your boost go from 26 to 24 to 26 again? doesn't make sense at all. but hey what do i know right?

Your right what do you know ecspecially on the s20g setup on lnfs. I dis themix to make 90 octane, this a problem?

Now about why i change it from 26 to 24 to 26. Because surge is horrible no matter the boost in those rpms. I've changed a few things and it's way better but still surges.

Aaron, more timing midrange means more aggressive because when it spools full it'll have that much timing thrown at it.

Compressor surge! Not boost spike. Lowering boost there helped it a lot but still has a tad bit. Issue I think is the adapter but also the compressor wheel along with housing.

So, it really sounds like this turbo needs a conservative tune no matter what...so many flippin variables to figure out when changing the damn turbo, i hate it...
all i know is, i wanna have a stonger power band than the stock turbo, and i wanna be at least 400whp/400wtq and spend less than 2k for everything

With the higher boost 26lbs no matter what, if i change anything it still does it. With the larger wheels it didnt do it which is why im going to do a 60-1 mitsu td06/td05

Please enlighten mr guru of lnf balts with the 20g! Because lowering it helps a **** ton. those two pounds removed quite a bit of the surging...

The best fix for this turbo is to call BNR.
