It would appear that this has been fixed sans effort on my part..except
for aggravation with respect to the list owner and the server owner.
And a query to my ISp. Incidentally none have replied, lol... Yes, I
do end arounds quite frequently. I did on this one also. Speaking of
going faster.... Some will remember that I did fabricate a hardware in
the loop simulator. I used that simulation to run a number of scenarios
to determine if the electronics were the culprit in the 5500 rpm
limiting. I can happily report that the answer to that is no. I ran last
yeras tune to 8000 rpm with hesitation or glitch from the electronics or
harness subsystems. I did determine that the default for the mass air
flow system should it fail is gonna be fun! NOT!. It defaults to less
than half the air flow and that wont be good as it will be geting way
more than that. That table has been maxed out so I am keeping my finger
crossed. Not being an electronics failure means that it is mechanical
in some form. I believe it/was the boost control system. Way back
when, I used twin turbos and that system had two waste gates. The
exhaust plumbing was not cross connected at that time. Now I have one
large turbo and still two waste gates with cross connection. One
controller has a smaller spring internally. So for this year I have
added a second controller and both waste gates are controlled
separately. One is set to 15 psig and the other to 18. It is go or blow
time. I also added a 13 gallon ice/water intercooler system and a new
blow through mass air meter. And slowed the steering down by a factor
of two. Hopefully that wont bite me in the posterior. And this year we
are only going to World Of Speed in September. The August meet is a zoo
and hotel prices are very high. Hotel alone last year cost me 1300
bucks! I must have spent 4000 bucks last year on that one meet alone.
We are headed to a chassis dyno somewhere in May or June. Hopefully I do
not kill the motor then or there will a long pause before next meet...
Oh, on turbocharging a supercharger.. considered it...no room, lol.....
