Very minor changes for starters. Added a little fuel in the mid range and only a half degree of timing in the upper end of things and took away a little bit of the other .5* dip we had. But it is about 2-3* more than the car was running before when it was pulling timing last time he tried 26 lbs.

Wow that's more than I had thught so now since you're running more fuel and higher octane you should be able to get more timing out of it. Also if you went that lean but still had no knock imagine what it can do with proper A/F

ya I got that bookmarked. my question is, how does it lower boost. with a solenoid? how does that work exactly?

KMO43

Hopefully it'll make a difference

KMO43

Oh ok you can do it many ways but an easy one is run a solenoid that has 2 inputs one from the boost solenoid and the other from normal manifold vacuum. So on normal operation it will just go through the solenoid as normal but when there is an issue it'll block off the stock boost solenoid and run straight manifold vacuum that will result is whatever the spring is set at so for stock turbo around 5psi

Go to drive my car home from work and the rear drivers side tire is flat. Sure enough a 1" wide piece that almost looks like a razor blade is lodged into my tire like 1/2" from the side wall. So it's not even repairable. And I only have like 15k on the tires. What sucks ass too is I cant even go log my car on the new tune Taylor sent me now. ****** construction everywhere!!!!!!!! Now to try and find a new tire ASAP

You don't have your stock wheels?

I can get one from Discount Tire Direct (where I initially got them from) for $195 Canadian to my door all in. I highly doubt any shop in Winnipeg is going to have Yokahama S Drive's in stock but i'll try. Worst case I order it tomorrow and get it in a few days.

KMO43

So you can't drive your car at all now?

Oh ya I drove it home. I could put the spare on but that's ultra ghey. Whatever it is that's lodged in my tire is right on the side what doesn't contact the road and actually leaks very slow considering it's an inch wide. I just wouldn't want to wind my car out in 3rd gear with it haha.

KMO43

Oh I would not either I thought it was totally flat

Thankfully it does hold air for a while. Can't be caught rollin on a donut

KMO43

Put the spare on the front then burn out city!!!

Holy hell you guys get raped for tires up there. $195 for an S Drive?!!! Cody paid like $590 shipped for all 4 of his S Drives, and I barely paid a little more than $195 each for my R888's, granted mine are 17's, but Cody has 18's.

So doing research I found out gunwash has everything u need for octane booster. And what do u know we use it at work for paint gun cleaning. Always get 4 50 gallon drums at a time. Hmmmm. I feel like I should get some and mix it and get the octane checked
