Going Big Turbo Today

[voypa]

Just thought I would post the install of my turbo kit today. I'll let everyone know how it goes and what my first impressions of it are when its done. The kit I'm throwing in is: the Gt71r with the ATP Swaintech Exhaust Mani, a custom FMIC, Neuspeed TIP, Genesis 430 cc, Evoms DV, and Eurocode Test Pipe.

[Groove1797]

software?

[Condo]

Congrats on the new setup but why are you going with a custom MAF that is smaller than stock?

[mtbrider]

Good luck!!

[voypa]

thanks josh. what software were you running? i think im going Revo

[dougyfresh]

software?

x2

Inquiring minds want to know.

[mtbrider]

I had the standard Revo BT software

[voypa]

yeah im thinking thats what im going to go with. my friend told me I dont need to run software with it but i know the timing will be a mess if i dont.

[apexslider]

you need to run software. your friend must have never seen the difference between a k03 and GT71R....

[B6Lovin]

sounds like your friend does drugs.

lots of them

[SinisterA4]

sounds like your friend does drugs.

lots of them

Did someone say Meth?


(and yes I mean for the car)

[voypa]

hahah, yes indeed. im going to get it flashed monday. until then im just going to keep it out of boost

[Sleepy 1]

Are you stock K03 rite now? I can't wait to hear your impression of it.

[Papachristou]

yeah im thinking thats what im going to go with. my friend told me I dont need to run software with it but i know the timing will be a mess if i dont.

your friend = one stupid mofo: you should never listen to anything he ever tells you...

hmmm hairdryer vs gt71r
boost levels and powerband are ever so slightly different
injector sizes are obviously a hair off...

the list goes on.. this isnt a chevy, our computer monitors more parameters than i have hairs on my head (which is getting lower by the day)

[voypa]

hahahah, i absolutely agree. and yeah im at stock k03 right now so i will be sure to let you know what i think once its completed. should be done around monday.

[AudiA4_20T]

hahahah, i absolutely agree. and yeah im at stock k03 right now so i will be sure to let you know what i think once its completed. should be done around monday.

Whered you pull that $600 out of?

[dirtybrd]

hahahah, i absolutely agree. and yeah im at stock k03 right now so i will be sure to let you know what i think once its completed. should be done around monday.

You have no programming at all yet, not even chipped for the k03?

[voypa]

nah, I'm not chipped. I have my test pipe, DV, exhaust, and boost gauge in right now. So its going to be a pretty big transition. And Clint, I have $650 that i was gonna use for the install but I'm just using that for the software and I'll owe my parents the rest. I'm working so it shouldn't take too long.

[dirtybrd]

Getting into boost won't hurt anything, you're not moving enough air to cause any damage, but still get the flash ASAP and give it a few hours of driving before you really go out and pound on it. It needs some time to adapt.

[voypa]

Okay cool. I know I should get the software, but exactly how urgent is it?

[dirtybrd]

I seriously doubt you will hurt anything. I drove around for months on a GT30 hybrid and Giac FX file without issue. People told me not to, but I did and even took it to the track once. Just get it ASAP don't try to run just a boost controller on it or you WILL BLOW THE MOTOR.

[F16HTON]

You will be fine if it is connected to the N75 properly. Hopefullly you have a boost gauge, keep it under 15 psi.

[dougyfresh]

Are you stock K03 rite now? I can't wait to hear your impression of it.

It is night and day. Bascially, the car will drive and feel like it should have from the factory (in my opinion).

[mtbrider]

^^^I agree, the car will feel alot better. Colin your going to like it alot.

[voypa]

yeah man, I'm really pumped. what do you think I'm gonna be running (chp)?

[F16HTON]

yeah man, I'm really pumped. what do you think I'm gonna be running (chp)?

I have no issues making well over 400CHP with the 71R

[apexslider]

I have no issues making well over 400CHP with the 71R

race gas and meth?

[voypa]

yeah that number seems high for my setup. what else are you running?

[F16HTON]

yeah that number seems high for my setup. what else are you running?

100% off the shelf Eurocode/ATP 71R Eliminaor on a stock block.

REVO Programming
Bosch 440CC
Bosch FR5-DTC spark plugs
Neuspeed TIP
Turbosmart eBoost EBC
K&N in the stock airbox
ATP manifold
Eurocode test pipe

The only real tweaks to the setup are that I gasket matched the head/exhaust manifold/turbo, cleaned up the inside of the exhaust manifold (casting spurs) and have the injectors flow matched/balanced. I run it at 22psi

Been on this setup for well over 2 years and have never had an issue, runs high 12s regularly

[dirtybrd]

No Lemmi tweaks?

[F16HTON]

No Lemmi tweaks?

Nope, not a one. On a day to day basis I run T5 on pump gas, once it get to around 90-100 degress Tracee drops it to T4.

If I run race gas then i switch it to T9 and call it a day (could prabably add a few degrees with lemmiwinks but I am happy with the performance as it is. Have not used lemmi on the timing since I ran the full kit. The file that I have is a little more agressive than my old full GT28RS file and needs no lemmi advances to the timing

[voypa]

should i pick up a boost controller with this setup?

[dirtybrd]

An EBC would be best, they're more accurate.

[voypa]

is it necessary though?

[mtbrider]

While your car can run without it, it is highly recommended

[dirtybrd]

is it necessary though?

I have a Joe P MBC and it's a great unit. But sometimes it'll let the boost flucuate by as much as 5 psi. I think it might be where I have it mounted. It sits right next to the turbo bolted to the valve cover. I believe that once the spring inside it heats up it softens a bit.

[voypa]

josh, which ebc should i get then?

[dirtybrd]

Greg and Shawn both run E-boost, I think that's what it's called. It's a gauge and EBC in one.

[AudiA4_20T]

Colin, an EBC is $300+ and I know your broke. A MBC will be fine and will save you tons of money

[F16HTON]

If you want the best boost controller *PERIOD* buy a World Electronics TBC-1 or a PBC-1 http://www.world-motorsports.com/wms...=index&cPath=1

I run the Turbosmart eBoost and it is the most user friendly (instructions in Queen's English), has a extremely accurate digital boost gauge and matches the Audi interior nicely. You can mount it in the Podi too.
