Powermax vs NonVGT 64/71/70 + Diverter?

[motoxracer42]

havnt yet i was thinking about it. do you guys know how accurate the OBD port EBP readings are? im not seeing anything higher then 58 at WOT i know thats good im just hopeing that they are right

Well i know on my truck my scan tool includes atmospheric pressure so usually dependong on your altitude it adds 14-15 psi. check it at idle. Mines around about there. You just subtract that from your drive pressure reading.

So what do you get more power out of? The 64 or the powermax?

yea at idle it reads 15 so i guess that means im running pretty close to 1;1

where do most guys get their drive pressure readings at?

mine is right at the turbo adapter to the y pipes

 

[dstryr]

mine is right at the turbo adapter to the y pipes

What are your mods that ran the time in your sig?

Thanks Brody...i was kinda thinkin that that would probably be the best place and just wanted to make sure and see where others were getting it.

what up brody. where you been.
i use a t fitting where the factory ebp sensor it and just run off that. works great an its easy.

225 injectors, 64mm non vgt, and innovative tunes are the biggest part that got those times. all of the other mods are the things that go along with them.

ive been here matt, just lingering around lol. that will work for the pressure reading just as good. probably a little easier to hook it up in that spot also.

Matt, now that you mention the EBP sensor...i've seen some pics of guys with coiled copper tubing with the boost line attached to it. Is this what you have attatched to the T-fitting, then the boost line attatched to the copper tubing? If so how many coils of copper did you make and what size are the coils? I have the fittings and copper tubing to get the reading from the EBP sensor, now i just need another boost gauge.

 

[redracer62]

just roll it around a spray paint can or somthing. i think mine is around 10 coils.

use a couple feet of the copper and coil it up so it can cool before it hits that plastic crap lol. thats pretty much it.

 

[strokin6L]

Thanks Brody and Matt. I have 5 feet of 1/4" OD copper tubing...will this size work or is it too big?

 

[motoxracer42]

i just 1/8" which is the same size as the nylon or whatever its made out of lol.

 

[redracer62]

1/8 or 1/4 will work. i used 1/4.

 

[strokin6L]

Does it matter where the coils are...whether they are close to the EBP sensor or at the other end towards the 1/8" nylon boost hose? I'm guessing probably more towards the EBP sensor so that they cool the exhaust enough that it doesn't melt the nylon...right? I got it at LOWES and they didn't have 1/8" like i wanted only 1/4...so i got 1/4. Here's some pics i got mocked up from the EBP sensor bracket and tube.

second pic is of my soot filter i made...and filled with some fine steel wool.

so you just run that to a boost gauge?

yeah i forgot to tell you about a filter haha. mine is steel wool to just a little longer than that.

 

[motoxracer42]

filter lol who needs a filter hahaha
