Couple of questions

[dgibson2004]

Hi

I have just purchased a fantastic rev2 turbo with the following but have a couple of questions please?

The spec is as follows - car running in the region of 400bhp+

Forged CP Pistons
Eagle 'H' Beam Rods
Clevite 77 Tri-metal Bearings
Cometic Head Gasket
GT3071r Ball Bearing Turbo
GM Knock Sensor
Wolfkatz Fuel Rail
Sard 800cc injectors
Tial 38mm Wastegate
Walbro 255l/h
ST205 ChargeCooler and Pump
HUGE K&N Air Filter
Blitz Dump Valve
ARP Head Bolts
Helix Single Plate Clutch
Fidanza Flywheel & Bolts
Sard Fuel Pressure Regulator
Rogue Engine Bay Fans
Blueflame Twin Exit exhaust
HKS Valve Springs
HKS Cam Gears
HKS Timing Belt
264 Exhaust and Intake
Link G3 ECU
Re-conditioned Rev 3 Gearbox.

INTERIOR
180mph Speedo
Omori Boost Gauge 45mm in-dash
HKS Turbo Timer
Electronic Boost Controller greedy pro spec II.

My question is I believe the car is mapped at 1.8 bar can I use the boost controller to set the low setting to 1.1 bar and the high setting at 1.5 bar or would I need to get the ecu remapped to run lower boost?

Also looking at the spec of the engine what kind of boost is safe to run? (engine work/build carried out by Century motorSports)

I am also looking to get a couple of gauges in he car, after market boost gauge already fitted, but am also thinking oil temp/pressure gauge would you recommend any others?

Thanks in advance

i don't think you can lower the boost lower than what its mapped to, Air Fuel Mixture is a good one to have as well as fuel pressure gauges.

just lower the boost if you want......

all i can see happening is the car just running a tiny bit richer (which is a good thing) with lower boost....

there no reason why you cant even run on actuator/wastegate pressure which could be like 0.9bar on a turbo like that (guess).

Why don't you get in touch with Century- if they built the engine they will be able to advise on boost limits, etc

Thanks for the info.

Car is mapped unto 1.8 bar so is ok to lower boost on boost controller

Just need to work out how to use/set the controller now.

Thanks
