lol....can't wait till people start popping N18 motors....blown piston threads are coming, just a sneaking suspicion

At 22 psi, its not if....it's when...trust me

 

Don't worry I don't plan on ever touching 22psi.

 

R60, stock turbo, intake, downpipe, exhaust, intercooler, meth, etc.

 

Did they tell Nick you were a JCW? I've only seen the 22psi target boost map on JCW or hybrid turbos maps. Most our stage 2 cars on MCS turbos have boost targets of 1.4 even with meth or race gas.

 

For clarification: That graph is represented in absolute pressure. So 1.0 = ambient. Add to that value 1.5 of pressure and you get 2.5bar, or the 22psi being talked about.

But remember these compressor maps are created under ideal circumstances. The testing equipment would have a 100% flow efficiency, while a turbocharged motor does not.

Lastly, and most importantly, when people cite a given boost level it's almost always referring to a mid-rev range spike. Not to the pressures recorded at anywhere near red line. The stock K03 is good for perhaps 14psi at 6500. 22psi is for the lower end of the scale only.

 

If you get a catless down pipe you will be in Stage 2 territory.
Stage 2 is basically down pipe and intercooler with a tune. With Stage 2 your looking at between 230-250hp crank. Without the down pipe you are looking at a Stage 1 tune for manic. Manic is for 2006-2014 Mini Coopers (N14/N18). You will not regret the tune if you decide to get it. Whole different car. Much worth the money.

 

Not that I am aware it. I actually filled out all the paperwork showing my mods, myself.

 

I went and double checked the files we used and looks like there was a stage 2 MCS with 1.5 boost target pressure on meth. Enjoy!! Most our cars daily drive on the 1.4 map and it is a lot of fun. We will be dyno testing all the cars this winter so will have solid whp numbers on most combos.

as for boost loss at higher rpm... On the JCW cars we tested there is no spike , Nick gets rid of the overboost spike most cars have or experience when using other tuning options. the Dyno sheet I posted in the sticky shows N18 JCW pulling 22psi and stays very close to ~21 psi all the way to redline.

 

Just got my K04 E45R. Hope to get it installed soon, get retuned, and post some numbers for you guys.

 

Nice, you will like the K04 much more over the K03

 

Can this NGK ILKR8E6 Laser Iridium spark plug use on N18 engine, isit a cooler plug compare to the stock plug? Thank you

 

The stock plug is a BERU 12ZR-6SPP2-1 R6

 

This is what I use, bought them at the Mitsubishi dealer. So far so good with 23psi and 10.5 timing.

 

Simultaneously?

 

Yes. Depending on the conditions 19.5psi to 8-10.5 degree
I have a screen shot of my Torque App a few post up

 

At what engine speed are you recording 19.5psi and ignition timing like that?

 

6200

 

Doug don't forget that Mario has a GP2

 

Is this with a stock K03-106 turbo on California 91oct? Or on the E85 blend you list in your signature?

 

I missed that in the signature. What airflows do you see at that point in the rev range?

 

Temps?

 

Hehe. Sorry, I wasn't being specific. Thanks for your patience with me but I was referring to airmass. That's the single statistic that informs my company's existence: how much does it flow?

 

Anyone with an automatic have an issue getting their tune flashed? Or has anyone had any issues getting flashed?

 

I'm really looking forward to seeing these numbers. K04 and tune are my mid-term plans

 

Did you have problems getting yours flashed? I have heard that a small percentage of cars for whatever reason do have issues and the case has to be opened.
