My 1st boost logs.....time to up the boost!

Ran these in 3rd gear this morning on the way to the office .

Looks a little sporatic compared to some of the others that I've seen, maybe due to the larger intercooler I have??? Might have to recheck the fittings to make sure i dont have any boost leaks as the boost is quite "low" compared to where it should be.

Shiv - what do you think? This seems low for stock V2.0.2 settings right? I'm barely breaking 10psi except for an initial period of higher boost up to around 11.5, then its tapering down to under 10psi. As always on the release of throttle its spiking up more but I expect that.

I'm going to up the settings to 92% across the whole rpm band and see what numbers I get later today after a few appointments.

You have the 6AT, right? You may want to hold off as Shiv will be making some changes to this v2.0.2 6AT map, since a few of us have already gone into limp mode with this map. Shiv said it should be an easy fix for him, and he'll post it later tonight.

Temp is in the high 30's....altitude is around 290 ft above sea level, very humid out.

I upped the settings to 92% and just did a 40 mile round trip at relatively high speeds, car felt GREAT.

Once the roads dry out I'll do some more 3rd gear pulls....no sense in going 110mph in 30-40 degree weather w/ wet roads on summer tires.

Thanks

It's been so crappy here... I haven't reinstalled my Procede from when I had my service. I have V2 and it's just sitting there. Supposed to get 1" of ice today. My garage isn't heated. Installing the Procede V2 in 20 degree temps isn't my idea of fun. Especially when the roads are all ice covered. :sad0147:

Diehard attitude, I like it. I bought one of those Propane Jet style heaters for my garage. Only problem is, if he installs it and takes it out in the weather he has....he WILL crash. He's probably better of waiting until the weather changes some.

I'm breaking my tires loose in 3rd gear as it stands right now, through some snow or ice into the equation and my car stays in the garage and my Z71 comes out to play. Nothing like doing controlled powerslides around a traffic circle in an extended cab off-road equipped pickup.......my neighbors look like this

Go over all your IC connections and make sure there very tight, use a socket on all your worm clamps not just a screwdriver.

Also I would expect the Intercooler itself to lower boost slightly.

are you using V1.0X monitoring software to monitor a 2.0X version.

I think there is a V2.0 monitoring software ...not sure if that makes a difference?

I used a socket as best I could, its very tight where some of the fittings are located. I was using a "snake" adapter on the socket w/ a power screwdriver to tighten the worm clamps. I don't think its leaking, but I'll have to get back under there to check it out.

the larger IC core might just require a higher setting from Shiv's software, or its the weather. I'll have to wait and see.

Regardless the car is running great.

Pretty sure i'm on V2 software...I'll check. I don't think I could have uploaded V2 without it?
