Can the first stage boost be eliminated, so that a constant amount of boost is achieved throughout the whole rev range?

I only ask this because common sense tell me that as long as you running safe levels of boost, why not run it at a constant rate?

the car has been set up not to really fish tail down the road. Ie see some of the Sapphire Cossie boys for details.

Two stage boost is to assist with the driveability of the car.

I am sure you can get around it. in a 180 degree kind of a way

 

[Lanky]

aha I see! hmmm, would installing a boost controllers effect the 2 stage boost?

 

[Jock Alert]

Whats the deal with this 2 stage boost carry on?

Is it standard on all recent liners, ie R32, 33 and 34?

My R32 certainly doesn't have it.

nor does mine, 1.1bar all the way

 

[Lanky]

1.1bar mine peaks at 0.64 which is nearly half. Are you pulling my plonker or is that for real?

Maybe he has had a little work done on it eh ?

GTS-T's run a 2 stage boost, low boost is .4 and high boost is .6 and is controlled via the ECU through a boost solenoid.

You can bypass this by simply tracing back the pipe from the actuator and joining it straight into the vavuum line fron the pipe on the feed to the intercooler.

This will allow the actuator to go straight to the factory set target boost level i.e. .6 bar.

you will have to loop a pipe on the solenoid though otherwise the ECU will detect an air leek and drop back the settings on the car.

Hope this helps.....

Mine peaks at .58 if its real cold outside...

I am going to wait for a boost controller before I fire .85 at it constantly...

Interesting idea kngp, might be worth a go, thats basically just running it on whatever the actuator is set at from Nissan, cool...

 

[b]

Have you got a seperate boost gauge to get such an accurate figure then Lanky / Skip

 

[Skip]

Lanky has the same as me, a Blitz DCII turbo timer with a built in boost gauge....

Standard one is just...

 

[b]

Ah all is explained. I never have the time to look at the standard one when it should be reading full whack, it might not work for all I know

 

[RoboPope]

1.1 bar @ 3000rpm, I must admit mine is not quite as standard as maybe some are...

I saw the graph from the dyno run for your car at Abbeys the other day. Does spool up a bit rapid dont it.

 

[RoboPope]

Its fruity...

 

[Guest]

What have you had done to get it like that then?

 

[Guest]

hg/mm?
bar ?
psi ?
kg/cm?
what one ?
it seems every one is talking different measurements

 

[Isaac Hunt]

Buster is the man to ask about pressures.

 

[Jock Alert]

Hmm...


Is 1 bar not 15 PSI or 1KG/cm2?

I sold my soul to the devil...

I then gave the money to....

and a few others (but not necessarily in that order)
