when you guys with hpt play with this, you guys are limiting boost in first and giving full boost in all other gears when the gas is mashed?
how does this work and what is the ideal boost to limit to in first gear?
i searched but found nothing too concrete.

 

I start off with 50% boost in 1st up to 4500 then increase % to 6000 where I have it at 100%. 2nd gear is full 100% all the way.

 

so in stock form is that the reason why we smash the gas and it peaks at a certain boost level then gradually builds as you get through the gears and continue to accelrate?

so yours kicks in at 4500 rpm at 100 percent and the rest of the gears are at 100 percent aswell with yer tune, and first gear is set at 50 percent before 4500, interesting...
pretty sick, i want this done when i get my tune.

 

Yeah 06blackg85ss. I would love that kind of tune when we have the CA tune day. Can't wait.

 

yeah I got it set up both ways at c/a for those of you with a very twitchy right foot .... but I like to just stomp it down and hold on.... but now the way I have it set it doesn't spin em at the top of first anymore... I guess the better traction in the beginning helps... I'm gonna try the 100% in first just to see how t would work on my combo...

 

let us know man!
also when goin to 100 percent in all gears, does boost still build or is boost maxed right away as soon s you plant yer foot?

 

Cool thanks bro.

 

It will still build... it comes in depending on what rpm your at when you shift... for me I'm at @17+ psi when I hit each gear and peak at 20.9 (down from 21.9 from exhaust) at 7200 rpm.

 

when is the CA test and tune day??? Sept, Oct, Nov?????

 

ahh ok, thats like me, just dont peak as high as you lol
i can smash it in second and get about 15psi, as i accelerate through its about 17 psi( 2.85)

 

jlewis--- still not a solid date yet... I"m not botherin them til after the show is over this weekend... they had to do a lot of thrashing this week to get ready.

 

WOW bro almost 21psi. That's off the hook boost! That Balt must be quick. I must fondle it when I see you. You don't mind sharing right??

 

I"ll take you for a spin.... no one touches the car but me... that why when something breaks I don't have to kill anyone... lol

 

Yeah I hear that 100%. Nobody has ever and nobody will ever drive my car. Minus a tech guy or two. Sweet, i'll go for a ride. I need this tune bad.

 

tuning is key, i cant wait for mine...

 

so is it just first and second that have torque management equipped on a stock or stage tune?

 

both do.... yeah only 1st and 2nd

 

good info, thanks man...

 

max tq on my first gear is 70%. with my LSD i dont chirp or squeel my tires. thus allowing u to use up 100% of first gear and giving u an incredible launch.

 

wats the max torque set at stock in first gear?

 

i think its higher, i cant remember though lol. i do know that i take my friends si by about another 2 car lenghths thanks to limited tq in first gear. im not MAP based, i have the "desired tq/ss" options.

 

does that kick in at a certain rpm or just set straight through?
