So the F6 computer is altered from the T to allow this, and squirt more fuel etc but...The second CAI and the larger Intercooler have allowed for less loss of boost, so the additional boost does not require a lot of extra pressure on the turbo to create the additional output.I think that is right.

Glad to be of assistance<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Just love your work Martin vik...unlike Some around here <{POST_SNAPBACK}>You might as well just leave the tongue in there Vik to save time.

Just found the magazine article over lunch. Boost is increased to 9 psi on the Typhoon. Sorry for the bumsteer.Muz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Street Tuner Member 727 Member For: 21y 9m Posted 30/01/06 02:39 AM Share Posted 30/01/06 02:39 AM Boost is definitely increased in the Typhoon mapping. Its up some 25% in different areas of the duty cycle table. In fact there are all sorts of things different about the Typhoon mapping, boost is just one small part of it. Hope that helps.

2fardown Member 526 Member For: 19y 4m 12d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 30/01/06 02:41 AM Share Posted 30/01/06 02:41 AM What is the difference in gap between the typhoon & Mk1 Xr6 turbo???Bear in mind the XR6 Turbo is designed by Ford to run 240KW/450NM, like a few other things like IC, Valve Springs etc. they haven't engineered to go dramatically past their spec!Also what's the new off the shelf cost of a Nissan GTR compared to a XR6 Turbo???Also what gap are they using in the GTR with the upgraded coils???<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I wouldn't mind seeing a response to this?
