My eye caught the price...$2.25! Knew I was SOL. they disco'd it for kerosene!!!Well, the guy's next door (owners/distributers) still sell 104 in big jugs....they were closed...wanted to see impact of 100oct.
Danny is resetting my advance. boost <30....~25-27. Software sensing something...at the Clifton dyno...it pinged...boost dumped to the sound of blown hose! Cooled down...all was well. Guess that kind of programing / safety insurance is what makes Hans' stuff top shelf (and appropriately priced, too)

and go with an empty tank.. I had mine filled on the spot.

You're pulling back your timing advance?

Gotta keep those temps down man... oil cooler.. I'm telling ya.

especially today....now, I had 94...today filled with 93...assuming that's it.
We'll see...I know that IF there is an issue it will be corrected....Danny is tenacious! Nothin' busted, all is good...just less (I think?) boost.
I'm confident that the software is protecting the motor from unsuspecting nasties.

It sounds odd... so the turbo doesn't like pushing 30lbs? What are your IAT's like?

IAT's?

If you're pulling timing or pinging, you're temps are likely too high. It's why you obviously lose power between runs also.

I'd go for an oil cooler, remove all your engine covers, and maybe get a vented hood. If not, then possibly pull the aliens and leave the holes open for additional airflow. Since the turbo is likely dual cooled like the stock (oil and water) cooler oil temperatures will help the turbo life in addition to the engine. Cooler engine temps overall will help you gain and keep power. Do you have a DV relocation kit also? I've seen most other dahlback cars have them. It will help your temps out also, and improve response even more (will keep your DV cooler and make it have to be serviced less).

You might want to look into ATP's VES system. It can be boost activated to only open after a certain pressure. Maybe something quite high considering how much boost you push. But on a dyno, it really opened up the flow and gave nice power to a few cars already. Exhaust dumps help a lot.

You still running a milltek exhaust or something? A nice mufflex 3" clear back system might free up some nice power also.. but if you did the dumps, you'd get equal or more flow, with the same off throttle and around town sound.

I'm not even driving hard...not like a brutal run...anyway, hear a hiss...leaky?

You're leaking you think?
