are we there yet?

 

6 days to go

 

I've got a list of stuff to do to the car tomorrow but that should have me completely ready for this meet.

anyone else wrenching tomorrow?

 

I will be tomorrow. but I guess you already knew that since it'll be on your car. lol

 

well, that turbo isn't gonna install itself!
oh ****, did I just say that out loud?!

oops...
maybe no one will see that.

 

 

 

quoted twice for truth... lol. cat's out of the bag.

 

haha another turbo install? jedi?!

 

on our first big dyno day, one of the guys had a turbo-nator in his car.
and jedi has been dying to get one ever since.... lol

 

turbo install 5 days before dyno day? thats intense x_X

 

I'm helping Jedi, what could possibly go wrong??

 

I'll tell you what could go wrong . You could do such a good job that he pwns you on dyno day ......

 

classic.

 

My boost gauge went out Spent the last couple of hours checking everything with Aipex8 and we can not figure it out. All connections are zip tied and not leaking. Reseated all the electrical connections. I do not need it for tuning so it is not a show stopper I will be leaving really early tomorrow morning.

Also did a few datalogs and the tune is not lean now. I may have the fastest tune of day. Get strapped down. Jeff does a run and says WTF?! I just tuned this hooptie 2 months ago and everything looks the same

This is not my video but this is what the boost gauge is doing with the engine running and turned off.

are your other prosport gauges wired in series with it? and are they fine?

acting like that with engine turned off, i'd say the boost sensor has gone bad. there must be voltage fluctuating in the output signal that is causing it to move around.

 

It was working fine until this morning. Turned the car on and noticed it jumping around. The other gauges are working just fine and are daisy chained.

 

i would try unplugging the boost sensor and then reconnecting to see if it just needs a reset. otherwise, looks to be a faulty sensor.

 

I will give that a try. Maybe the gauge can not zero out for some reason?

oh hell ya!
that's awesome Brettus. Let the gambling...errr...."guessing" begin!

 

Though I must recuse myself from the gambling on guessing of potential outcomes, I might suggest that the spreadsheet be made available in a format other than JPEG so that it can be marked up for some side bets additional datapoints.

 

Jeff: thanks for volunteering to put that in Excel format for us, your'e awesome!

 

Well, obviously, Brett has already done that.
However, he chose to post it as a JPEG.
I demand that he answer for these crimes and be held accountable!
