camatv Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 if you have problems always make sure your fuel pressure is adequeate. issues i have seen is people forget that atmosphere pressure needs to be added in to the boost pressure./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowriderb Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 if you have problems always make sure your fuel pressure is adequeate. issues i have seen is people forget that atmosphere pressure needs to be added in to the boost pressure./ im starting the fuel pressure at 3psi, and the regulator is a 1:1 the fuel pump is good for about 50psi as well.

camatv Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 does the regulator add pressure as it builds boost? i figure it would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowriderb Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 does the regulator add pressure as it builds boost? i figure it would. yeah, the regulator is a 1:1 meaning it will raise the fuel pressure 1psi for every # of boost, so say im starting it at 3psi base pressure and end up at 20psi boost, my final fuel pressure should be 23#'s. the fuel pump i have is good up to about 50#'s of working pressure, with the turbo good up to about mid 30's (according to garret) so i should have plenty of room to work with on the fuel.

No sorry I had my mom pass away this passed weekend and wasnt able to do much of anything in a bit, I did however get to finish a few things this afternoon and was able to go down the street with it only making about 6psi before i let off (no wheelie bar on the bike) I did get a little vid of it idling and putting it back in the shop. tuesday it should go on the rollers for sure!

lowriderb Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 i didnt get to put my bike on the dyno, instead i brought it to the track. the first outing was for shake down passes, i have a few things to tweek and change around and will make it back to the dyno when i get more time off to go to higher boost. these passes were making lower boost 6-8psi, like i said i was making sure everything went good with the whole set up before going to more boost so the times werent really important to me just yet. 1st pass ever 2nd pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowriderb Posted November 13, 2011 Report Share Posted November 13, 2011 Time to drag this post up..lol I havent been up to much with this bike lately, it had a brake caliper bolt shear off and i found a 15ft deep ditch ending up with near no damage to the bike but it did beat me up pretty good. I ended up with a broken left femure with a spiral fracture up to my hip (think of twisting your leg till you dislocate your knee and then it breaks the bone) and 8 broken ribs (im ganna just compare this to giving birth for women!). I did get to see about 14psi on the dyno, the numbers so far looked pretty good with the tuning still rich as hell. right now though the shift forks are needing to be replaced (ordering billet ones). this was right before the accident.

Withidlehands Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 How much power did it make at 14? Scary stuff with the brakes giving out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowriderb Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 It was in the high 150's, the rims need to be changed and im waiting for a new brake rotor and master cylinder to come in before i try it out again, the stock rotors dont like braking from high speeds and start wobbling.
