What has made you Happy today??

As an example I think Kevin07's was good for 16PSI yet Mudski and myself can achieve 20-25 with no dramas
I'm in the process of reducing my boost so its 12psi @ 100kph and leave it at that lol.
My boost is all over the place atm since I change where I get the boost from. easy enough to sort IMO

Would you really notice any difference on a CRD dialled in at 17psi compared to 19 psi.lol

I noticed when I dropped from 19 down to 14 psi..
Felt like the gq again lol..
But then got some of it back when I went back up to 17..
I was hoping for 16 but happy at 17 seeing it didn't limp out like it did at 19..
I don't really wanna start stuffing with maf voltage modifiers or housing etc to get more boost..
It goes well.. and it's a daily at 2850kg so I've always used more fuel etc than others..
So to haul that weight up Adelaide hills with ease I'm gunna leave it..
Just need to dial in the needle valve to reduce cruze boost but again seeing I'm quite a heavy rig it may be as good as it gets..

Did you weigh it to get that figure of 2850 kg sounds heavy IMO
Must go and see Ben and get mine weighed just as a reference lol
What you're after is efficiency not something that's dialled up and right on the edge.

Yea absolutely..
Just really weird how some do and others don't. .

Any negatives at running 17 psi? ?
Garret says efficiency runs out at 19psi..
But can stock internals handle that boost??

Might grab a zd and rebuild it..
Mod a few bits like ceramic and tyflon the pistons, work the head a bit lol..
Ow wifie would love that.. haha..

Boost is fine. Even cruise egts of 350 are fine...

Didn't take much of a hill to see 350 but once flat again is settled in at 250..

Far out, I see 600 and even 650 when towing. Yous got nothing to worry about

Yours will more than likely be quite reliable and return fairly good efficiency.

Feck!
Mine used would never go over 400c when towing and flogging the rrrs out of it.
FYI Kallen, I was running 25psi max and 18psi at 100k's. The max boost and cruising boost levels are relative to each other. The higher you go in max boost, the higher you need to go in cruise boost. If you dont. For example you get 25psi max, but you still want say 12psi at 100k's, you need to open the needle valve up, there for slowing your spool up rate. It will take off like a bucket of poo, the boost rise will be far too slow.
My needle valve was virtually shut when I was running it. It ran really good too. I did find that anything over 30psi, it was pretty much a negative effect on performance. So it was just blowing hot air at the level and way out of its efficiency. So a few days of road testing and what not and the levels I ended up with suited mine really well.
Now however, a few mobs have sprung up with better turbos, I think Diesel Tec are the guys. Their getting good numbers out of their modded ZD turbos. I think they are worth a pretty penny though too...

Yep, no issues so far and cheap to run. Most of my driving is stretching it to about 3500-4000rpm every gear anyway. Sweet spot is around 2600rpm
