Cool - my loads are mostly around 2 so that's OK. Also, I haven't seen BATs above 50*C yet :thumbs:

Well it's not like I run WOT all the time :D 90% of my many, many miles are on the motorway at 70-80mph so once I've got peak performance sorted I'm going to really concentrate on efficiencies at part throttle cruising. As for WOT stresses, it's a performance engine, right? And there are tonnes of 3...

Thanks Steve. AFR is fine, what's acceptable BAT? :) And am I on the right track now with sorting this 'ere boost spike and whatnot? :mrgreen: Also- more generic question. What is the downside to increasing target load? i.e. what could go wrong? My car seems perfectly happy to give me 2 load but wha...

BTW - is <= 0.7* KR something I want to try to dial out and if so, how might I go about doing it? Is it as simple as pulling the timing a tad at the most common knocking points or would colder plugs be a better solution? Or am just getting ahead of myself at this point

Cheers STC - starting to get a grip of the basics now

Ok. I've finally dialed out the boost spike by reducing the BCS DC siginificantly. I'm still in 2 port mode since I can't find ANYWHERE in the entire Universe that even knows what a 6mm blanking cap is, let alone sells one, so I can't yet convert to 3 port mode. However, I've reduced my DC to much l...

Really? Not 4th gear? Your wish is my command, sir. I'll got do some logs

Not sure what that means Although since I'm trying to iron out overboosting then maybe it'll work. Gonna just reduce the BCS DC a bunch more tomorrow to see what effect it has

Right, I've finally got chance to run the car again for logging and tweaking. For the record, I haven't yet moved to 3 port mode because I haven't got the bits :D I've reduced the BCS DC somewhat at low rpm and raised my target loads a little - the idea being that I spool slower and the ECU doesn't ...

Excellent thanks

Just need to get the bots to convert my Grimmspeed to 3-port mode now. Apparently I need nipples
