Default Stu, she just loves a bit of boost! ;)

Car has had about 50 miles on and off boost tonight up to the no go zone and just loves every minute of it. Pulls really well for 14lb. 1st and 2nd are deffo useless in this weather and 3rd is a little twitchy over bumps.

Would we be able to overcome the fueling issue using a 5th injector controler and the cold start valve or is too great a deficit meaning we need a bigger injector?

Im glad your getting some fun out of her mate, youve invested enough in it

To answer the question:
We probably could, as its only a slight fuel deficit. If you want to try it let me know.

It goes really well for only 14lb of boost on a standard turbo. There are further mods in the pipe line awaiting but that is for next year when I have sorted everything else out on the car.

Aye!! Without serious alteration to the KE it's starting to run lean over 5250rpm so have to back off then, on a standard turbo too. Options are either up the fuel pressure, carry out a modification to the KE unit, fit a 5th injector or back the boost off. I am leaning towards a controler and use the cold start valve just to pull back the fueling if it will work.

Other than that it comes on boost and just pulls really smooth.

Dead and Gome, hi mate. I never got your name. While you're around, I am available next sat to do that wiring but not the saturday after.

Just shy of 3% as it is. Gonna speak to Stu on Sat about it but I'm not spending loads more on KE. I will live with it at a held 14 for now until I sort out my "other" mods!

We still need to dial in a bit of ignition jet. On that respect, yours being similar spec to mine should be pretty good.

they react SO well to advance - waiting for a chip at the mo, as this advance curve is far too shallow - the S1 is much better for that.
