I just purchased a 1985 T-Type has many new suspension parts and all service records. It was set for 9 Lb’s of boost and has an adjustable wastage.
I want to turn up the boost to maybe 14 but turning the Westgate buckle in 3-turns did not seem to make a big difference. I am interested in obtain some type of knock sensor, boost controller, fuel pressure to observe real time or electronic device to do this from the inside. It is important to me to establish a baseline of the car before I start any modifications. What can I expect with this set up and how do I tweak it for the max output with 93 Octane.
