The Official Overboosted Overlords Club
Alright, Kane, add me up!
Chickenwafer- 2005 RX-8 6-speed, GT3071R, Snow water/meth injection. Custom intercooler, CAI, lots of other shyt. Not sure what else is mentionable? It's fast??
My "thread" is linked to my sig pic
kthxbye

yeah, I do. I have one on the Arizona Mazda Club website but never posted one here- didn't feel like updating two websites all the time since I was busy during the install, and everybody and their mother has a build thread...so yeah
EDIT: Forgot to mention, I will have a dyno on Feb 28th if I don't blow my shyt up.

ROLF, I'll let Dave slide since he never wins anywayz.....I mean come on he's Auto and still has a Santa hat in his avatar, weak sos.
Plus he knows I'm bigger than him!
Oh yeah Kane, my dyno will be at least one pull on my normal 9.5psi setting, another on "hi boost" of 12psi, and potentially one at 14-16psi with a few gallons of Q16 for extra insurance just in case.

Here are my electronic boost controller duty cycle settings
2000 68
2500 68
3000 68
3500 68
4000 74
4500 74
5000 76
5500 80
6000 81
6500 87
7000 90
7500 85
8000 85
8500 85
9000 85
This gives me as steadyish 9.1 - 9.6psi to the redline with the Greddy UG turbo,the aux port closed and the WG spring pressure adjusted to 5.5psi.
A couple of things I've realised from this .
*contrary to popular belief the Greddy WG spring will support up to 10 psi boost to redline without any modification . The problem is that as rpms increase the exhaust pressure acts on the wastegate to an extent that you cannot use one duty cycle setting to get a constant psi . This is where a rpm based boost controller has come in handy for me .
*If you do not have a rpm based boost controller you can counteract this flaw to some extent by adjusting the wg spring to its maximum . It will hold a little over 7 psi a that point and give a better result on one boost controller setting.
*You can get into a lot of trouble when you mess with the boost controller like this and don't realise the implications of what you are doing - expensive trouble
Brettus - move your crap over here.
As I was saying Displacement is Displacement - trying to restrict displacement by closing the intake tract down is not going to work at the flow levels we are talking about here; just shift earlier.
