Custon 93 Oct Tune Wedge :)
Hi guys,
should probably start my own thread about Ken@ Wedge and his custom 93 Oct tune with MHD. He's been great so far and the car pulls really hard, On my second flash from him and got a log this morning, below is the latest flash. Car is completely stock 59k miles, EX drop in filter and CP. I just bought a BMS intake and will be getting a VRSF incooler installed in a week or so. After that no other mods, ex some type of gauges. Any thoughts on gauges? I was looking at the P3Cars gauges? Thank you http://www.datazap.me/u/anmvq/log-14...&data=3-6-7-11 Last edited by ANMVQ; 02-23-2017 at 08:25 AM.. |

Thanx man, is the throttle closure something the car normally does? I have read about it but not really sure why it happens? IS that also why I saw timing corrections at the same RPM? |

If you have an automatic transmission it's probably being induced by a torque limit. We ran into that a couple of times on mine, xDrives have it worst as the Alpina flash doesn't increase the TCU torque limits like it does on the RWD cars for some reason. Ken will sort it out |

Are you saying you don't even have a chargepipe on it? I specifically bought a CP because of how high he gets that boost. Your stock pipe is holding 20-22PSI??!?!

Yea I have a Xdrive Alpina Auto, so I guess it's doing that with the TQ limits. I'm sure Ken will iron that out |

http://www.datazap.me/u/gripandrip/g...ta=2-4-5-13-16 This log makes me sad. Look at the throttle closure in response to the long overboost. Blowing my mind that your chargepipes didn't crack or break. Don't make me regret buying the VRSF CP haha.

Dear lord. I've been stalling on my custom 93 oct tune with Ken so I can get my boost leak sorted at my local shop...think that just jumped to the top of my to-do list...

Is running that high of a boost bad for the stock turbos? Just wondering because the OTS maps only target 14.5 and this is targeting like 22. Looks awesome though! I was about to pay the $300 for Ken's tune myself!

I don't have 93oct here, but I'm hoping Ken can make a Kill map for me using e30 and then maybe a DD map for 91. I wonder how much power he can make on 91.

I'm no pro, so someone else wanna confirm the max PSI for our turbos without causing failure? Also how do you define bad? Immediate failure, or decreased life?

This, most turbo failures are caused by overheating of the turbo bearings/seals. As WGDC increases so do exhaust gas temps. Having a catless downpipe will help reduce exhaust gas temps as well which will add some more safety margins in. The N55 turbos are made by Borg Warner and are not Mitsubishi turbos like the N54's. The N55 turbo is much more robust and reliable than the Mitsubishi N54's.

I've been emailing with Ken and about to buy the custom tune but I don't want to run into issues due to running too much boost on the stock n55 turbo. |

Just tell him the PSI you feel comfortable with. Don't like 22, have him make you a lower PSI map. It's your map, it's custom. Tell him your goals and fears and everything you want the map to be.
