CSB3: Rice Buys A Minivan

[Saabingti]

If you're going more than 28ish you need sensors.

I'm running 28/29 peak boost till redline with no sensors

Yes, but why? 4 bar is either 43 psig or 58 psia which is way more than 28.

You replied too fast for my edit to hold: Or is it kinda like device calibration where you want to stay away from the extreme ends of measurement capability?

EDIT:

Google got me sorted. 4 bar is total range and usually from -1 to +3 bar. For a second there I forgot we're drawing negative pressure until VTEC turbo kicks in.+3 bar being 28 psig. Need 5 bar to go -1 to +4, or 43 psig.

Stock PUT reads 3 BAR including atmospheric pressure.

Yeah, don't forget ambient. Here's one of the first logs when I was tuning with Sneaky.

It hit 28.8psi and couldn't read higher than that.

I'm willing to bet APR is big enough/has enough money into it that it makes sense for them to be proactive in operating as a '100% above board' operation, versus trying the 'off-road use only' thing where it's kind of an out in the open thing that people willfully ignore.

Holley is a publicly traded company with a 500MM+ market cap. Pretty sure everything has to stay above board.

Yeap, that is the answer right there. Their pockets are considerably deeper than IE or 034.

8.5 incoming, straight from stock to Vortex as soon as the papers are signed.

2022 GLI with a Vortex. Maybe the hybrid turbo would cancel out the lesbian aspect of it?

With a hybrid its a full out dyke.

An R can use good tires and be setup to turn.

If you're not on the track you'd have to be a mad man to find the limits of these cars/your tires anyway.

You're out there finding the limits of your tires on public roads?

Looks like we've got a bad ass over here.

It's not like I'm driving through city traffic like that. The back twisty roads though I get the tires howling

I find myself questioning why many of you bought the cars you did only to drive them like it's a Kia Rio

idk about your experiences with kia rio drivers, but if we're driving like them, those cars are beaten to within an inch of their lives

I drive the crap out of the GTI. I'm not gonna let it understeer into the other lane tho.
