my car made 355kw on the day but never got a clean pass due to running out of spark from the factory ignition system

Yeh but u cant compair dynos unless it was the same dyno then ok
but heaps of dynos give way different readings, like my car made 354 but i recon its more like 325 or so for 130 MPH but who knows. ALl dyno's are different!

Ferret's car was funny Craig did two pulls on the Dyno and then Ferret told Craig that the pistons were standard so he stopped at 504hp on the unopened engine and his only chance to get it down the track was 10.12@134mph then he got kicked out until he gets a cage and a few other bits hahahahhahahah Would have been nice to see a 9 But who knows next time you see it at the track all caged up it might do it..........

makes sense, seems that nothing happens till around 4000rpm then all hell brakes loose, as in 1psi to 18psi in like 500rpm,
so i'll look at that, makes sense, if the gate is open a bit or the diaframe has a whole in it explains why nothing happens till 4500rpm as the turbo is then able to over come the whole etc!

if its stuck you might have that prob but a hole will make it over boost

okies it's a 44m tiel gate, and i've got both the springs in it to make it around 17psi
i have to ask, is there any other reason why it's taken so long to spool up?
.82 35/40 and i have a 3500 rpm stall

pull the gate apart and check to make sure its all ok and how do you have the line to the gate like were is the top and bottom line going
take the 2 springs out and try using l so its around 12psi and bleed it of with a good boost controler . if it still does it talk to kyle 6boost he no's the gates really well from my understanding also check that the gate is sealing properly on the valve
