odd boost needle?
I'm wondering if my car is tryin to boost more than should. For instance when I take off from 1st 2nd it seems to jump to to high between shifts. I'm shifting at 25k.
|
Holy hell what kinda valve springs you runnin?
|
25k rpm holy crap!

Very, true. I think mine is clogged or it is my fuel filter.

Could my valve on the sc be the issue? A friend once before was tryin to adjust it
|
Im confused
Why is there any boost if your doing a 1-2 shift at 2.5k? Wot short shift? I dont know too much about lsj and how bypass and the tune works and such but if I am putting along granny shifting at 2.5k there's no boost. Hell if your shifting it that low you could be causing it to bog down |
I thought shifting at 3k was high but maybe I should try it. It just seems like my needle jumps into boost to soon like around 3-5psi

I'm boosting over that its just seem its boosting to soon. I think the my buddy adjusted my valve on the sc and its allowing it to boost when it shouldn't
I try to keep it out of boost riding around town but its hard with it trying to hit into boost I try to keep it out of boost riding around town but its hard with it trying to hit into boost |
Is it making any boost at idle
|
No just when I take off threw the gears it seems the needle reaches boost to easily like around5-7 psi. Its almost impossible to stay out of boost just daily driving it. My friend says it could be the bv on the sc was somehow adjusted and throwing my boost levels off.
|
That sounds about normal
There is a tune option that ZZP offers that I have where it reduces boost by 50% in 1st gear. |
Just drive the damn thing. Yew haz tinee pew lee noa. It makes boost easy. So?
|
Ok thanks guys and Insylem I'll check on that
