Hey guys, today i installed the forged diverters....fitment was a bit tight, but succesful. The MSDS CAI and brake reservoir didnt leave much room for the silicone hose. Anyway i had to set my torque values back to 90% from 94% because my boost was jumping way above 15psi. Here is my datalog for 1st to 4th gear.

My mods are as followed...v2 @ 90%, ur catted dps, AA exhaust, spearco ic, msds cai, and forged diverters on 93 shell.

Hey shiv how about a custom map to keep my boost up to redline like Mr.5
Also how is my engine load in and out....i noticed its gone above the range it can read.

Am I the only one who scales the boost graph so that it starts at 10 in order to actually see some detail?

I dont know are you?

[Mr. 5]

Very cool to hear.
Are you using the green spring or the yellow?

[Supramano]

yellow as advised by o-cha..

[sambonator]

Hmmm I wonder if the boost would change if you go green...

[cn555ic]

Wow those diverters definately do the trick as far as holding boost i see...Supramano, can you show a comparison of the boost logs you had before the diverters?

This is a great question.
It would be nice to see the deltas.

Would definitely love to see the difference as well. I should have my Forged DV's in the next day or so. WOuld be a nice comparison.
Other wise looks great. Had a question as well if you have a chance. I find that if i do a 3rd gear pull while logging it, the boost takes a dip but if i do a run 2nd, 3rd, 4th, the boost looks like yours with my stock dv's. Just curious if your car does the same. Once I get my dv's i'll data log as well.

I actually did have them, but when you start a new datalog and end the run it saves over the previous ones. I dont know why it does this, but my data file 1,2,3 with the stock dvs got erased by the new ones i did today. I do remmeber them dropping to as low as 10 psi though. The differences in boost drop were very minimal, but the forged dvs created a much smother boost curve than the stock dvs.

The major difference is that my previous datalogs were done at 94% reaching a mximum of 14.4-14.6. Since ive installed the v2 my torque setting have been at 94%. When i did a test drive with the forged ones my boost was creaping over 15 and almost to 16psi. i had to drop the settings to 90% to get it under 15psi. Now my max boost is at 14.8. Dont know why this happened, unless my stock dvs were leaking.

I'm going to look at this as well. I've had V2 and if I try to raise the torque value up, it doesn't really increase boost values on my car. I can run it at 90% and the car is just slow. No data logs but it doesn't feel too different from the stock. A bit better. Raised it back to 94% and datalogged. 13.8 - 14psi. Raise it to 96% and again, 13.9- 14.1. Car feels smooth and fast but it just doesn't seem right. Am running 93 Octane. It could be due to the colder temps here. Currently just running stock. Once DV's show up, will run the DV's on stock setup and then install V2 back in and see how it logs starting at 90%. Wondering if my stock DV's are leaking possibly.

What I did notice was, stock the gas mileage goes way up. With V2 at 96%, was getting 170 to 220 kms to half tank mark. Stock, sitting at just above half tank and already 253km's and i drive about the same as in, i beat on the throttle.

Now I'm starting to think higher boost at higher RPM's NEED Forged Diverter Valves! (or better explanation may be, stock diverter valves end up venting a lot of boost due to the pressure deltas during high-flow, high-pressure, for which they weren't designed).

[Orb]

I would love to see data of a poorly operating stock valve. I have seen one suspect valve on Eugene car but he did not log engine load so I have to dismiss it but it had they typical signs of seating problems…aka leaking valve.

Please do post I know what to look for…thanks.

Hey Orb,

What info do you think I need to log? I should log engine load, boost, RPM. Anything else?

Cheers

do you have to remove the diverters to install new springs or lube the pison o-ring? How about some pictures?

To change the srings you simply twist the top of the diverter off and replace with the new spring. I did this before i installed them and it took about 1 minute. They are already lubed so the twiste very easily.

[tomtom]

i am about to install mine...but can't twist one off by hand...must be dried out.
how much grease do you put?

Can we have the instructions, just one more time?

funny, was advised to use green my both Forge and NAMOTORSPORTS.

It would be nice if had a CLEAR definition of both.

you can save all the ones you want, just modify the file name when the "save to" window pops up after hitting end datalog. I usually just add one digit on the end, so instead of it being data1 its data 11. Stopped do that though when I started to clean out the folder for logs, and seperate them in folders categorized by maps for reference.

Just change the file-name in advance you save the log.
