So actually, yes.
I managed to find the time and gave it to the tuner. I wante
d a baseline to work with.
Some info on what is happening and where to go from here. I was having trouble with knock and boost control.
It made 160kw on a hub dyno. He got the timing, fueling and general smoothness of the engine pretty darn great.
But the hx30 is just too small. It just wants to spool far too quick and inturn the engine is having trouble breathing. It's also creating an issue with knock and boost control. Although the boost is pretty steady as shown on the print out he capped it to 18psi.
It's fun to drive around town with virtually no lag but it's time to upgrade to a larger turbo.
So anyway here's some info for you guys building b230's. I can see the hx30 being fantastic as a factory turbo replacement but with a cam, intake etc its a bottleneck, as to be expected.
