spooling issues
 

i dont know if its me or not. but sometimes it feels like im not catching boost. but yet my boost gauge goes to 11 lbs. but it feels like its not going anywhere. and then there are times when it pulls like crazy. and it spools really late. i catch full boost at like 5k. and i have a really small nissan t3. i dont have any leaks that i know of. can u guys help me??. oh and i went out to the street races last nite and i lost to my buddy with a b16 eg. :'(. i kept breaking traction in first and second. i cant even launch my freakin car. what do u guys do to help with that?

try a 2 stage boost controller

Re:spooling issues
 

or try launching at a lower rpm?
or let some air out of your tires?

Monitor your A/F ratios maybe your ECU isn't reading accurately and sometimes its getting more fuel or something?

yeah i was thinkin about the boost controller. but im really short on cash at the moment. i launch at 2k and it spin's then catches and burns. i should drop the psi's in the tires. i was too lazy. ehhh ill get em next week. or whenever. i need to change my oil. got to keep this ---- up to date. my sayin is if you treat your car well it'll treat you well. thanks for the answers guys but i cant figure out why it does that

Re:spooling issues
 

you lost to a B16 EG, in your turbo car? WTF!?!?!

Re:spooling issues
 

yeah psi in your tires to add more surface area more traction...but fuel i really dont know

Re:spooling issues
 

ehh ---- i think im gonna sell my turbo setup and start a new one. one of my buddy's is giving me a slighty bigger t3 than the one i have now. i believe its a .60 compressor side and a .48 exhaust. ehh i dont know car feels sluggish now. im gonna work on it on wednesday. since i dont have class. ill keep you boys updated. yeah spenser i lost to a b16 eg. i whooped his ass the first time but the second time i had a passenger. i just cant grip first and second. maybe cause it was raining earlier in the day. i know all u guys know b16's. fucken torque less you can launch as high was you want and it'll grip and go

not really on street tires...they just cup in the middle when you go too low on psi. they look wider but they arent putting as much rubber on the ground. get an lsd and some real tires, or just learn to launch at part throttle maybe and lean into it once you can get traction
