Correct.
In some cases, especially rally cars with massive midrange spikes of 50psi etc, we have so much turbine housing pressure that we cannot have any capsule assistance pressure at all otherwise our desired boost pressure is unatainable due to too much assistance.

with the 'bleed on' method, how is the boost controlled? i presume that there must be a map of air injector duty vs TPS and MAP or something?

what then happens if the wastegate weakens or something else changes? presumably you don't get the same boost as when it was mapped?

wouldn't a close loop boost control system be better, where you have boost vs rpm that you can set? i suppose that is what most standalone boost controllers do, but wouldn't it be better to have the ecu controlling it? i guess T6 can do that sort of thing?

you can set a duty cycle of throttle angle/rpm

or you can close loop it

Correct. Map Vs RPM.

Correct Again.

Yes, definately.

100% success there at answeering your own questions.

Wrong why Gareth?

Weber has a duration table that runs RPM along the Side and Manifold pressure along the top mate.

i do find it odd that boost is on one of the axis when you are trying to control boost!

I would have been dissapointed if you hadnt noticed that Gareth mate. Top Marks... it is a tad unusual and almosty seems counter intuitive, but it isnt actually...

What we can do with MAP is keep the wastegate fully closed right up until the boost pressure we are trying to control, then start to open the gate. This is something you cant easily do with TPS based boost control as you can have different boost with same throttle under some circumstances, such as load of course. If we need to keep boost low at some point in the rev range, we can dial in smaller numbers on that part of the map.

Well, if you ignore the fact mine are lighter, smaller, easier to mount and less likely to fail. Apart from that, the only difference is teh price.

Not really Simon, as I seem to remember the first single air injectors weren't flowing exactly twice as much as each air inj' in the twin set up - which is what I was referring too, and it was Stu who posted it. I am however happy to be corrected by Stu (and yourself ), as this no longer appears to be the case
