I didn't see a bored throttle body in your list of parts; are you doing this with the stock TB?

Hey Chris not trying to be an ass or anything but one pass @ 26 psi would be nice to see on a time slip. That way when Wisconsin s2k goes trolling, your car will be the reference of many of arguments.

Why 26 psi?? As I said it's just a matter of putting race fuel in it and doing it. That and hoping that I don't shread up the drivetrain...

How do you control the boost limit? Do you have some sort of adjustable pressure regulator?

Sounds like you are now wicked fast! I guess it's time to look for a transmission/drive from another car/company. Or you could just get some old bias ply tires that spin all of the time

Congratulations on a killer engine build!

Boost pressure is adjusted by the wastegate. It's pretty accurate, but with the EMS you can monitor the boost pressure (called "Engine Load") in real time which is really cool.

Basically the exhaust manifold is pressurized, and when X amount of pressure is built up, it bleeds off pressure to maintain a specified boost level.

Where no man has gone before.........wow......WOW.......words fail me.........
Congratulations cjb80! The new cornerstone for F20C development. A very impressive accomplishment! I dare say that MR. Mike Simon is about to become even more popular and sought after for his expertise with motor voodoo. He most certainly deserves accolades for his skill and proficiency in the development of this work of art.
Well done!!!!!!!!
