From what i've driven, high comp makes the boost instant, full song around 4k till 8-8.5, which is alright with hondie ratios

Car is 1ton like pulsars, 2L plentyful off boost, gets off line really easy, but then we're drifting off to the silvia vs skyline chassis hear

From what I'm seeing in that graph, definitly not peaky, lots of usable power

Referring to the 300kw one above, is similar set up to mates integra.

Im just bored ok

felt like spamming

f*k yas

4000rpm =/= instant

tweeked Std turbo here.. with a BOV that promises 15% better response again...(not the reason i bought it) that's as good as response as your really going to get.

and I can light them up at 30 in 3rd..(on the deca skid pan with a kick and maybe a puddle)

4000rpm =/= instant

Different things

there "turbo lag" where how long it takes for the turbo to spool up as soon as you step on it (say at 5000rpm you should be at full boost, you're cruising at 5000 cause you're deaccel, then you punch the gas, the lag time between none to full boost)

and "turbo lag" where how early in the rev range full boost is experienced

So easy to hit 4000rpm with honda ratios, heck we sit at 3.5k rpm at 100 in 6th with a type r box

If I'm driving hard and want good response:

Step 1 is BEING IN THE RIGHT GEAR!
You don't need power at 2000rpm, you should have already downshifted two gears and getting it into the peak power band of the engine/turbo setup.

So for me, response isn't about RPM, it's how long the turbo it takes to come onto full boost when I stomp the loud pedal and I'm already at 5000rpm.

A decent power curve is nice below there, makes everything nicer on the street. But don't expect to make balls to the wall power AND have all the power down low in a turbo car, or it'll run out up of go after you get above the midrange (which is where you'll be if you want to go fast)

I'm talking about manuals of course, because fk autos

Hehe, i like how we both used 5k rpm :rolleyes:

What car you driving these days Jonoe?

stock dc2r for daily, ek going under some works but will take a while since most of my money just went into holidays. Graduate end of this year :D

What's a pulley upgrade?

:rolleyes:
