Hey guys,

I've been running this tune for a while and it seems to be running pretty well. I've just had a suspicion that it is not quite perfect. When driving next to a wall or something I can hear the engine better, and during that time I hear the turbos spool up on hard accel. When the boost gets up towards its max requested, I can hear a sort of choppy kinda whistle, and I think it's the DVs not quite holding the max boost. Car is 00 A6 2.7t. DVs are adjustable Forge Hybrid Splitters running in re-circulation mode. I can't find the max boost spec ANYWHERE for these valves. I have done a pressurized intake boost leak test and it seemed to pass that. Unfortunately, it's harder to test the actual DVs separate for the max boost they will hold. Below is a graph showing a 2nd gear pull. I am running essentially the Notorious Tune, with very few changes. No changes to boost, fueling, etc.

Thanks!

That is not a log shane, it's a picture of boost which means next to nothing.

lol.

Post the full CSV of a 3rd gear 2500-redline log, along with your mods.

WGDC is 95% all the way to redline.

I'd say you have a boost leak or your DV's aren't holding, like you said.

Any particular reason you didn't include WGDC in your picture? Tongue

Also, when logging, please hold your accel pedal at WOT, or ecuxplot will filter that data if you have filter enabled.

Thanks. No particular reason...still learning. What does a normal/good duty cycle look like?

Depends entirely on the application... you will probably want to

1) read some materials on turbo/efi tuning
2) log a lot of cars
3) both of the above

ok...I mean, do you rarely see a healthy 2.7t with a WGDC above 50% for example?

When turbos are spooling WGDC should be high. When they are spooled it should decrease. This is all dependent on how hard they're working to meet requested boost.

Thanks,
makes sense. Do you have a graph showing boost and WGDC from your car that I could see?

Depends on the WG and boost levels.

stock k04, stock wg will need 80%+ WGDC to maintain > 20psi at redline

k04 knockoffs with tight wastegates will do 23-24psi with 75%

another example - k04 knockoffs with somewhat tight wastegates.
