Oh, that’s good if true. I’ve confirmed with XDI that the pump itself can handle 8000.
I have not seen one yet, but this is a very specific turbo meant for our cars, so I dont really think there is a need for one.
It’s still useful to have in order to properly tune the turbo ratio limit tables.
Thanks man. It’s just that the Mitsubishi upgrade says that’s unlike other turbo upgrades that theirs has it. I’m still new to this so I’m not sure if this is detrimental. I thought since it was a drop in that it would all be there
Would this make the prl turbo harder to tune?
True, I guess im not sure why PRL didnt release any. My thought process behind is is that common turbos that can be used across platforms probably have them so people can figure out what the thresholds are for proper sizing, whereas this turbo is specific enough for our platform that it might not be worthwhile, but I could be wrong.
This is the first time ive heard mention of any tuner referencing a compressor map to tune a vehicle, but the reasoning likely goes over my head.
Not necessarily, the maps don’t give you the exact numbers to use and we didn’t have the map for the stock turbo either. It just gives you a better guess ahead of time, and once you’ve figured it out for one you’ve figured it out for them all.
The maps essentially describe where the turbo is most efficient. Using that, it gives me a better idea of where I should limit the compression ratio so it doesn’t start putting out hot air and reducing power. Enough trial and error can tell you the same thing.
So pretty much this means when the the turbo comes out, just wait for a few cars to get tuned before I tune mine? Lol
I mean, if you’ve got a good, dedicated tuner who doesn’t cut corners they’ll get your car running right either way. Just a matter of how fast they can do it.
gotcha, that makes sense.
The nice thing is, there was a good amount of R&D on this turbo that @kefi or anyone else should have a decent understanding of where the turbo is most efficient.
