Dyno Day Quiz!!!!

[vwtype53 at yahoo.com (Ben)]

To be fair, I must confess that my most realistic pull was around 205.  My first two pulls were
done with my MBC in play, and limiting boost to around 14psi max (holding around 12psi to
redline), which helped eliminate surging.  My last pull I opened up the MBC and saw closer to
17psi max, which is what gave me a nasty looking hp curve, but the peakier 218hp number.

Oh, and the wideband o2 said that I was running WAY rich, especially in the mid-range.  We're
talking off the scale, below 10, power-robbing rich.  Near redline it came back to around 11-12.

So, if I could just figure out how to get rid of the boost surge above 14psi, and then get a remap
for my ecu... well, I think I could eek out a bit more.  :)

The dyno day was fun.  Maybe we'll do another one in the Springtime?
