EVO's with cams and custom flash
hey guys,
just wanted to get something straight. wanted to know how much psi are cars pulling with cams and custom flash. With flash redline is at 7800rpm, till when does your boost hold 20 or 21, please state whether you have MBC or not?
My situation is my boost drops at 6k at every gear, in 2-3 gear goes low as 16 in 4-5 it is abt 17.Even though i have boost controlled flash but no MBC. just want to make sure i got a leak or is it supposed to drop at that rpm. my mods in the sig.
Thanks for the input

I have an MBC that spikes to 1.5 (21.7psi) bar then settles at 1.4 (20.3psi) until redline. It did this with the stock BOV and does so with the MR BOV I have on there now.

i do know i got the boost control as i asked AL twice, i think i might have a leak cause i remember tune time it was hold 18-19 pretty good all the way to redline. i hate boost leaks they can be anywhere

I have Al's boost controlling flash that would spike to about 20, and then fall as low as 16, depending on the gear. Since then I have put in a manual boost controller, that is set at 22, and settles to about 21 at redline. I would start by putting in a boost controller, and see how that holds before checking for leaks, because it seems like the factory restrictor line just isn't holding well enough for you.

I have the Hallman Pro that I got from Justin at Evomoto, and I think its the best price you can get them for. I was asking Al when I got flashed again a couple weeks ago, and he was saying something about a couple of different versions of the boost flash, and he thought I just had the first version, so that may be part of it. He was saying that it changes where the boost spikes, but it doesn't really hold. But its all holding strong now...I think I just need new plugs now because of the increased boost. Hope that helps

I was happy but I could done better without an ebay catalic coverted I ran a 12.7 at 107 mph 60t 1.8 I did 12.9 and 1.7 60t foot with only 20psi so I'm runing 12.5 if I get to do 1.7 again on the 60t.well I wanted more hp so I bought the hks 272 cams shaft and cam gears from fidanza. tune and dayno day: base run with the cams untuned was 328.2 whp and 330.6 tq I was really happy and the best run with the cam gears -2-2 was339.3 whp and 337.9 tq..likely I didn't need that much tune but it help and also my boost controller was set wrong. so tu those number u can add 20hp since is a mustand dayno. mark ans smooke were really friendly and gave me really good advise for future upgrates so they are really cool and profecionals when it comes to evos performance.
