32 Pounds with Ruby


This was on the 140 setting, REALLY pushing it...and with crappy tuning. That's about to change though

Hey Mike, I do have an IC, and like an idiot, I drilled/tapped the side coming out of the turbo. Not sure which side that is, but it's on the right feed. Make sense?

Seems like it could be a little higher (35ish)being on the hot. It just could be your tuning or you could a small boost leak. Have you ever done a boost leak test on it ?

The hot side will read higher than the cold side, mines on the stock location.

Stock location meaning MAP sensor tap?

I haven't done a leak test. I probably should. My tuning is terrible so I am going to get that done this month hopefully. I just have canned tunes for stock injectors, which I had before doing he Stage 1 Rosewoods. My Uppies are 1.5 years old, plenums look good upon visual and there are no soot marks around the manifolds. The MAP line is also 6 months old. I could have a leak though, just not sure. All of my IC boots are good as well. I am not unhappy with 32. I figured that was good for what I have. 28 is reached easily. The run today was REALLY pushing it.

If you never resealed the plenum then they most likely are leaking a little. Also moving the map to the hot side may help get rid of some lag

Mike, I have a correction. My boost line is tapped into the "Y" feeding the plenums. I'll try ot get a picture, so it is on the cold side, right?

Do tell! Who's Andrew? I need something better than this canned crap and I don't want GH or Wildman.

Yeah Adam, I am wondering how much better it's gonna be. We shall see.

By the way fellas, we can thank Jarrett for getting my butt in gear to shoot a video after he sent me one of his this morning. I also have him to thank for me being able to send a chip in while not having to be without my current one. Tried to rep, but yeah.....
