Am I overboosting?

Mayuri Krab · 05-04-2016, 11:35 PM

My parents live in a semi rural area here in WA, so I do my loggings when I visit them.

Once I drive about 15 minutes from their house after 10pm and pull off onto a side street, I usually don't see another car again...

Pretty sure logging in neutral doesn't work either

Idk didn't realise how far off WOT I was til I checked my attempted logs. I was only at 50-60% in 3rd!

FYI in terms of an update, I'm asking WedgePerformance directly for his opinion on whether I'm hitting boost levels higher than I'm meant to be

You don't really need a tuner to tell you that. As long as you have a good log we can give some input.

Yeah I understand, but I wanted to confirm with him what peak boost should be.

His reply was this: "switch to the v6 maps. they are much more stable. 6.1 is current and 6.2 will be out soon."

Digitalism · 05-06-2016, 04:05 AM

Fair enough.

FWIW, I am on v6.1 and found boost is quite stable and that it is a lot smoother than v5.

Ah sweet! Might have to switch over really shortly

Fuji · 05-27-2016, 02:40 AM

Sorry for taking so long to get back on this!

Switched over to MHD V6.1 Stage 1 + FMIC with linear throttle activated.

Here is a 2nd gear pull:

I noted on some other logs I've done that the peak boost increases to 18-20 with throttle closures.

Should I be concerned about this?

TIA!

FUJI. You need to do a proper log mate, theres no shortcuts!
3rd gear manual mode, traction control off, start from 2000rpm, foot all the way to the kickdown switch so that you get 100% pedal, rev her out to at least 6500rpm then change into 4th, after 1 or 2 seconds you can back off and them the log is complete.
You need to do it this way to give correct boost & load readings etc...
Stop being a fairy pants and just do it!
