I went out and drove the R/T this afternoon for the first time since the dyno three weeks ago. I got my guts up and flicked the high boost switch while rolling along in 3rd. I made sure I had both hands on the wheel and punched it! All kinds of smoke came into the cabin and when I looked in the rear view mirror, there were twin black stripes about 100 feet long behind me I think I lost about 5000 miles worth of my drag radials back there! hehehehehehehheee
I then did the same test again (cause I couldnt resist) and painted a few more stripes before sneaking back home. When I ran with the TO4E 50 trim and the actuator completely unplugged the car did not move out anywhere near like this.
I am surprised my open diff spun both tires like that. I would have figured it for a one wheel peel.
Also...seeing as how I couldnt get good spool up data on the dyno, on the street in 3rd gear the MAP sensor was pegged at 4200 rpm. This turbo is a great match for this engine.
It also boosted about 2-3 psi higher on the street than the dyno (which is typical). My boost gauge was reading 34-35 psi when I glanced down at it!
And...the best part....no KR at all
