    Spoke to Will finally. He said to go ahead and log 4th. Idc will probably jump well over 100 but he said to just pay attention for any blow out style of break up. I’ll also be keeping an eye on the afrs during those pulls. Will said it shouldn’t go dead lean, but never know lol. Wonder how much boost I’ll make lol

    Since you track the car and likely will ride the limiter at times, def wire up the wot box for rev limiter purposes. You wont be going uber lean riding the limiter with PI with the wot box using ignition cut versus fuel cut with the AP limiter.

    Plus the fuel cut limiter sucks aside from being fuel cut on the AP and going lean when you have aux fuel. Especially in shorter gears like 3rd. 3rd gear im the ms6, I have to watch rpm like a hawk as if I stay in the 72xx rpm for more than a half second, it'll take off to 7800+ and hit the hard limit on the ms6 ecu and the car shuts off lol.

    Lol oh damn. Ok this is helpful thank you! I definitely need a wotbox I think. Much better way for rev limiting.

    I’ve noticed that I don’t think my car has a hard limiter set? Will asked for 3-7.5k but I accidentally went over once and hit 7800 lol. No limiter or nothing thing just kept going

    Lol yea same springs you’re running. I think limiting it at 7500 is probably safe? What do you run yours out to?

    updatesssss
    had a nice 4 day weekend and the weather was acceptable so i took the car out for some cruising, some beating, and some logs.

    Im currently on revision 2, just after my base map. I did my 4th gear logs Will was looking for,
    Car seems to be making good power and i will say it does feel pretty quick. I can say almost with confidence its already quicker then the car was last season.

    The power is completely different also. The top end feels so ALIVE. its addictive. i need to setup my PI so i can continue to enjoy. anyways vdyno from this weekend. This was taken the same place i take every single log you see in this thread. I believe this is by far the highest WHP ive gotten from this road, in my car, with vdyno. It feels every bit of it too,

    i think we can tell the car needs moar turbo lol. or maybe its just because theres no timing uptop yet, or really anywhere yet.

    take a look at these snips from my logs, it makes me cringe to see IDC go so high lol and the feeling of the break up up top kinda sucks. its not TERRIBLE but its there. here we are at 6700rpm at 100IDC
    4thwot_2_log.png

    and here we are at 7500, 109IDC lol
    4thwot_2_logpt2.png
    Its not like we're pushing massive amounts of boost but ive also never seen such mass airflow values. previously the most id see is maybe 350. we're into the 400's now so thats gotta mean something right?

    some glamour shots with the new wheels. i love them.

    IMG_7876.JPG

    took the car to some backroads, some twisties i like to hit. man this thing hooks up and goes. just flat out 3rd gear through a corner, feels the massive front camber follow the bend while the rear follows behind. i can actually turn into a corner with no throttle or brake and have the rear end step out. It really is something.

    i sent off my logs to Will, i also asked him if he could bring the boost in sooner as it feels maybe a little lazy down low, but im also logging from 3k up now where i use to start at 2500. This probably explains why i feel boost hits later. We shall see what Will says.

    If i can drive AT ALL this season, like i did last, the car will be competitive no doubts about it. very excited.
