Panic can add the story.

I reckon boost control is the problem and rectifying that will increase the bhp and midrange torque aswell

Ross

cheers mate. That was my initial thoughs. Torque seems to come in hard at 3,200rpm but drops off after 5,000 while power seem nice and smooth but peeks at 260bhp. any advice welcome of things to adjust on boost controller to help matters. I run an HKS EVC5 controller.

What boost control u using?

Ross

edited above.

Well if your running a boost controller its the gain that needs increased.

Ross

I assume a "better" turbo and 3 inch downpipe would help too??

(makes sure Panic's missus can hear) Oh definately.

Best to get your setup just now sorted. Your talking about holding the boost longer, then getting a rolling road to check the difference.

Then u can get a new turbo and exhaust and see the difference.

Ross

so I need to try to keep boost more linear for longer so time to up the boost and I believe "gain" is how quickly the boost comes in??

Well. The boost needs to remain the same, but it needs to held longer.

This is my boost controller in .pdf form..

I'll have a quick look.

Ross

I run a evc v also, mine is set to 62% for 1,5 bar boost with the 2871rs, the boost doesnt drop at all

cheers for that. Am gonna play around with my "B" settings and leave "A" as they are coz it still feels quick. Will try those settings first.

i have a at 20% i believe...Gives me 1.1 boost and very slow spool i think..

can you give me your settings 1-5 sometime. as i say ai think I peak to soon.

the only setup is 1.55 limit on the monitor setup, then 20% for A and 62% for B...i dont recall u got to set anything else

panic could you please list your mods? I need to check which chip you are using. It seems that many mates are getting that torque drop from 3700-5000rpm. Im wondering why though!

no problem.....
