Seems to be ok. Battery voltage is 14.3. I will monitor the car and take logs over the next few days and try to get a compression check. If all checks out then I will be on the dyno next Friday at 10 AM with MM doing live tuning at Surgeline.

Strapping down now! Jeff is in AZ and will be doing live remote tuning. Surgeline will run the dyno, collect the logs, and then send them to Jeff. Jeff will do his magic and send them back and then we upload.

I am trying to graph the data log but keep screwing it up

Best run of the day was 269.9 HP and 223 TQ (I think). Boost peaked at 12psi and dropped to 9.4. Surgeline is sending the pdf files of the runs in couple of days. I took a picture with my camera of of one of the graphs so everyone can check it out.

The data log is a CSV file. Nemesis8 graphed it.

Thanks Ngo The actuator probably could have done a bit more but Jeff likes it where it is at. Going to tune the BC to see if it can hold 12psi longer. The drive home was nice but I did not push it too much due to the many xmas shoppers on the road. Definitely going to take it for a drive soon!

That dip @ 6500 can be tuned some too - get your gain up on the BC, and it should go away.

I thought he would be making a little more hp with 12lbs of boost?
TQ is very nice!
