I sometimes wish I had that much traction, other times I enjoy the territory banging the limited in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. It's currently on track E85 which I guess is E85. Running a single Walbro 460 intank on the factory wiring with a modded pot, which I plan on upgrading to a battery feed W/relay soon. It's on 20psi now with conservative timing, 8 degrees just on/before the hit up to 14 up top. Will try more timing when I get to an actual dyno but safe enough for now. Haha no traction with any decent launch. It just smokes the front tyres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My G6ET ran out of pump on E85 around 460-470rwkw IIRC so had to upgrade to an external surge and twin pump setup. I'll check out what timing I ran in my setup for E85. Great video, but it just doesn't appear that aggressive for the boost running and fuel type, It should be savage. My G6ET on E85 would torch the tyres rolling along in 4th gear @ 21psi boost running Bridgestone RE003 tyres. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have double checked several times within the past 24 hours that the vacuum line is attached so no issues there. It might be dropping under boost though? Worth noting it does have a stock cat back so that is probably a restriction at this boost level. I should turn it back to 16psi but meh. It's quick enough for now. It's a build in progress.

Romulus Donating Members 1,279 Member For: 20y 30d Location: Perth Posted 06/07/20 01:02 PM Share Posted 06/07/20 01:02 PM Theres no point running more than 10-15psi with the stock cat back, it’s absolutely choking the exhaust. I had a Manta twin 2.5” cat back system for the SY Turbo I sold only 3 weeks ago, would have been a perfect upgrade.Until you change the cat back your pushing shyte up hill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have changed the dump, cat and some of the other twin pipe stuff so it's not stock there but it does need updating. It's not much really. Wifey pants has pre-approved the workshop tools I need to make zorsty bits so I'll have a decent zorst eventually. Whether I fool around with this tune or wait until the hot side is done, it'll be what it is, just me building and tuning my car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have shifted earlier but it's hard to film and drive. At any rate it's just some car sh*t to watch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the revs dropped further, cos it was wheel spinning when I shifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
