Just curious what people are seeing as a boost number on their JB4. I consistently am seeing 24 pounds on E30 Map 4. Excessive? I don't know so I gotta ask.
I don't like for my car to really be above 22 psi. I think the fastest Stingers/G70s are 19-21 psi iirc.Just curious what people are seeing as a boost number on their JB4. I consistently am seeing 24 pounds on E30 Map 4. Excessive? I don't know so I gotta ask.
I have the same experience. My is fastest With peak 20 and 18@6000.I don't like for my car to really be above 22 psi. I think the fastest Stingers/G70s are 19-21 psi iirc.
Agreed. To piggyback on this, what's also just as important is HOW that boost is delivered. Smoother, more linear delivery will usually run faster.I have the same experience. My is fastest With peak 20 and 18@6000.
To small turbos = backpressure and also lower timing make it slower.
It isnt just about boost. Less boost, more timing = cooler exhaust, less backpressure
Yes, peaks gives also heat and I can feel that shifts be faster not to have peaks around.Agreed. To piggyback on this, what's also just as important is HOW that boost is delivered. Smoother, more linear delivery will usually run faster.
To go down in boost you change FF from 50 like to 40 and test. You find it at Map6 a bit down. It affects boost in every MapJust curious what people are seeing as a boost number on their JB4. I consistently am seeing 24 pounds on E30 Map 4. Excessive? I don't know so I gotta ask.
