turbo timers and overboost??

[notEworthy27]

I wonder if this overboost is ok. according to the guy that posted this: changes 2500cc to 2600cc. :confused: true or not?

ganda yan ha? san pakabit nyan?

[pajerokid]

noteworthy... Not true. Pero ang ganda nung turbo timer! Looks stock sa Mitsus

[Ungas]

That's not true. Unless you overboost to destroy your engine. If I'm not mistaken that is an RHD vehicle?

quick question lang, diba a turbo timer has nothing to do with the increasing the boost? i thought a timer just allows the turbo to keep spinning while the oil in it cools down?

a boost controller would be the one to control the amount of boost and then the turbo timer na lang will be used to adjust the cool down time kung tinaas na ang boost.

is my thinking correct?

Yep, its the boost controller that manages the boost.

Upping the boost too much can kill your engine... especially if the cooling efficiency, fuel delivery system, and internals are stock. Most stock systems run around 6-8psi of boost AFAIK.

i think on the 4d56 tdic, stock boost is 8 psi.

i understand that it is safe to boost to around 12 to 14 psi, but most people just stick to 12 psi to be safe. is that correct?

i plan to do the washer mod to increase boost to 12 psi (monitored with a boost guage). then kung may pera na, lagyan ng finer filter and that will be it for the performance department. looks ang sunod, maybe new mags or something.

Only ang alam ko 10psi yung max boost ng washer mod. This was confirmed by Yellow way back when.

Teka, 10 nga ba? hehe

KCBoy, dibay may boost gauge ka? whats the max reading?

[ARB]

my isuzu has 10psi max boost. planing to increase it to 12.
