damn those pilgrims !!

i experienced very minor fuel cut yesterday, not enough to release the pedal during accelleration... but this is with the bypass plug in and the chip sitting beside me in the car not hooked up... another thing that was quite weird is that the boost is spiking at 23 and holding at 18 psi, again with the bypass plug in and not the chip, is this normal? i thought its supposed to be 15psi stock?

If you have an intake downpipe exhaust no cats the car will spool alot fatser and spike the boost badly.

my car doesnt even hold 18 and my boost is raised lol. Thats odd.

Laloosh I noticed you were shifting @ redline in your videos.
Most people were saying that our powerband drops off past 6k rpm and the turbo runs out of steam(and dynos seem to support this). Is it the Standback that's allowing you to utilize the entire rpm band due to being able to modify the stock fuel map or what?

Thanks in Advance.

yea the standback holds boost till about 6400, i shift around 6200-6300 at the track

yea my car trips me out... i have a cat though, i think when the chip was originally installed it messed around with the computer and stayed like that, i dont know if its the exhaust but there are times i can smell raw gas and sometimes it comes out of the vents... i haven't done the reflash yet so this will probably be solved with it

Hey laloosh, tell me again what are you running as far as your BPV. The forge or stock? I went to atmosphere with my HKS but have been noticing some popping more than usuall. And it also seems like the engine is a little stressed. Thinking of going back to the stock for a little bit.

Sorry not to thread jack but just really curious.

 

[laloosh]

forge

 

[knowledge007]

I going back to stock for alittle bit see if it helps. It if does I will sell the HKS and get the forge.

forge bpv

I have experienced boost cut too.
I was thinking it was fuel cut but after talking to a friend I am sure it is boost cut.
I have experienced it twice.
1.) Racing an IS08 from a stop light.
Shifting hard either in 2nd or 3rd BAM! Slammed me forward then I slammed it into the next gear and hit the throttle again and then was off again.
I still pulled ahead but then backed off at 90mph then he flew by thinking he just took me.

Mods: Stock intercooler, Forge BPV, COBB SRI

2.) I was turning right from a red light, there was on coming traffic so I got up on it, this time I was in 1st about to go to 2nd then Bam! slamming me forward.
I was like holy Sh!%! what the crap!

Mods: ETS 3.5 TMIC, Forge BPV, COBB SRI, SU Boost Tubes

This never happened to me when I had the stock BPV installed.
I thought, I'll change the spring from blue to yellow.
The car was too lag so I put the blue spring back in.

I would like to know what BPV/BOV other people are using at the time of their Boost Cut experiences.
