keep ur head up sh#t happens i no u will get handle
The first mini pass we made on WG spring pressure was in the 650s. However at the end of that pass is when we started to see symptoms of the mechanical issues (sparks from the timing area).
The next pass was a full pass to check a few minor adjustments and get a rough tune on it at gate pressure (3psi). However this time it made a little less (630) while it was milling itself a new cam pulley design... It got so hot the timing belt actually fused to the cam pulley!
I saved the log... Fuel looked pretty damn good just needed to be smoothed out to follow the natural VE a little better, and the timing was still pretty conservative. The logs showed 2.54psi... hence Jim calling it "N/A". Overall the numbers actually looked pretty damn good and close to what we expected out of it. It doesn't take rocket science to extrapolate out what the thing would do, even with the conservative tune, once the boost comes up and the turbo wakes up from the 3psi coma it is in.
