HEATSOAKING? Please elaborate...

when air gets compressed, it gets hot, the intercooler only has the ability to remove so much heat from the system, and hence you heat soak when the thermal exchange abilities have been surpassed. hot air is less dense, but also can cause preignition where the fuel lights off before the spark plug fires, this is known as "knock". The car will be slow to accelerate because of this as it pulls timing out to keep from damaging to the motor, think of each preignition event as hitting your piston with a diamond icepick, pulling timing keeps the exhaust valves open longer relative to the intake valves, allowing the piston to complete its compression stroke before the fuel is ignited.

If you would like to truly test if there is anything wrong with your turbos, put yourself in 3rd gear at 1400rpm and roll onto the throttle. there should be about .2-.5 seconds of "lag" before youre pushed back into your seat by the tq (you want to do this at this specific rpm because it is where your car generates the most torque).

If it passes this test, you then want to get on it at 4000rpm in a higher load gear (4-5-6) and see how long before you experience significant acceleration, there should be no delay here.

If the car fails either of these, and is still slow to spool/ accelerate, we can take a look at other options (bypass valve diaphragms stand out to me)

Definitely charge pipe with meth bung, your gonna blow the stock pipe off sooner or later. Are you going to run meth with the Cobb or you switching to procede?

Thanks for that, so would this condition throw a Code/Engine light? It was never above 250 on the oil gauge and its was 55 degrees out, not exactly warm.

That said, they seem to operate fine in cold and all rpms, even when the Ck Engine light came on, the power decrease was minimal though noticeable.

Could a vacuum hose or valve sensor be faulty? I guess they will see tmr when they read the the codes and diagnosis is more detailed. But I am feeling better about the fact the turbos work, just not functioning properly in certain conditions.

Cheers!

AnyOne know a decent storage place round Addison area. Just gotta hold a couple things. Thinking a 5x5 room will do it

Whats a high quality charge pipe?

Going to run it with cobb.

Jeff say:

"there won't be any stored codes, and blown turbos make dying pig sounds and no boost

Boost leak not likely
Probably blown diverter diaphragm

Boost leak would not affect overall performance as the turbos would spool more to hit target load
Unless it was a huge leak
In which case an ses/cel would remain lit

Oil temp does not have to be high for boost air temps to rise
Ie
Oil can be 180-190

And bats can be 190+F which would cause the car to switch to a reduced timing/load map
To prevent knock

Esp if sitting in traffic heatsoaking"

I've still never understood why NYC ever mandated yellow cabs...are they too stupid to tell whether or not it's a cab? Did someone with political connections have a bunch of left over yellow paint?

Can't go wrong with ER

How about Stett?

Shot an 89 at desert pines today, 3 birdies and a 50 ft par putt save. hellz yes.

seff...


y u on forum from vegas?

[Mr. Nice]

Stett seems pretty good, uses a silicone coupler whereas ER uses the factory c clip, Cpe looks decent too

Cuz he's not enjoying hookers and blow like a real man

Why not the vishnu chargepipe, it was designed specifically for the aquamist PMV kit?
