So, problem solved.
Anything else left to do on the buggy this year?
I could turn up the boost a little.........
Other than that it runs pretty nice. I need to do a little re tuning since the intercooler seems to make it run a little richer in some areas but Autotune has taken care of some of that in the few drives I've done this spring. I cruise to work at about 14.9-15.5 AFR at 60 plus mph and it purrs along.
It has great boost at lower arpm's when accelerating and I can see 6-8 lbs at half throttle up to 3500 rpm.
At 1/3 throttle leaving from a stop and going up to 40 mph it shows an instant 100 kpa so you basically have full throttle with very little pedal movement at under 3000 rpm.....It makes for really nice torque compared to a N/A engine.
I think the TD04L-13T is almost the perfect turbo for a 1679-2000cc engine....depending on your hp goals of course, but for up to 270 hp it can supply enough CFM to make those engines sing. The bigger the engine the more insta-boost you get but you are limited to the 270 hp.
There is a compressor wheel and housing mod sold by ARD that will increase the flow to 350 hp but it takes about 300 more rpm to get the boost.

For someone like Chip that has a target hp of 350 it would do the trick or if you have a bigger engine it would be a great match.
The clutch will take a little getting used to with the longer arm. It takes a longer stroke of the clutch pedal to get disengagement and it has a slight chatter. It is no longer a grandma car.......
I just need to adjust the free play to minimum to shorten the throw just a tiny bit so my leg throw matches it in my current seating position.
I'll get there......that's the price to pay when you want performance instead of just a nice driver.....
