stagefumer11 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Ive been comming across this many times with my l20et. When going full from say 2k or lower, its smooth and swift. but not always the same power or pull each time. If i bring it up to 3k or 4k in 2nd 3rd, what ever gear im in. And then nail it. Sure enough it will throw me back and take off. I seem to gain alot of power. Does anyone know of problems with changing power. The idea of timing keeps poping into my head. Is it possible the timing curve can change ?. Ive swaped Dizzys with a spare one i had and noiced no diffrence My mods list as. 600x300 intercooler. Rb20det turbo upgrade, 2.5" exhaust. intake mods. 600hp bosh fuel pump. Bosh gt40+ coil. Bosh 02 sensor Running 8psi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mario_82_ZXT Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Maybe since you start from low rpms, the turbo spools smoothly, then the power is smoothly. When you punch it at those high rpms, the turbo spools almost instantly giving you the sensation of a sudden surge of power.

Guest Battle Pope Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Yeah, it's probably just your turbo. At 2000 RPM you're probably not into full boost yet. By 3000 you're probably almost there, and at 4000 you're definitely into your full 8 PSI. That's why when you nail it starting in the higher RPMs it takes off like a rocket, because you're already making boost and are in your powerband. I'm thinking at 2000 RPM you're not in your prime powerband yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stagefumer11 Posted August 10, 2005 Author Share Posted August 10, 2005 good point, but it still makes heaps more torque. I did it again a few times on the way home, and it was still the same as going from 2k or so......... : / maybe its just me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
