    twin tuning/ drive pressure help

    yes im only going by what i have read over and over but ill trust you here, haha, you have the twins. size of charger also can change it some though as well. VVT vs fixed, size of wheel both compressor and turbine along with the aggressiveness of the wheels

    twin tuning/ drive pressure help

    you want the wategate to open as soon as it can to spool the large charger. holding the wastegate shut will just make it worse. as for machining it bigger. i port them out some on the modded IHI's i have been working on. it will ehlp to dump more air to the large charger

    on the fuel note. it is also important for consistancy. race blend are more expensive not just because they have more power potential but they are made to a much high standard then regular fuel and race. this consistance of the higher grade fuel helps make and enginer easier to tune and marks...
