>=3B Subject: [FlyRotary] Turbo question.
>=3B =
>=3B As I have mentioned I have had what I think are incongruent read= ings regarding my manifold pressure (mp)and engine rpm. It seems I am getti= ng quite low mp as I add power to higher rpm.
>=3B
>=3B I am no= t well versed in this area but my thought is that as I add power=2C even wi= th slight boost (currently using a 3 lb spring in my wastegate) eventually = my mp should raise a bit more.
>=3B
>=3B Today I did some stati= c test. I recorded engine RPM with the turbo hooked up and recorded the mp = at 1000 rpm increments. Then I removed the turbo plumbing from my intake an= d recorded the same info My results currently confuse me.
>=3B
&g= t=3B With the turbo hooked up I am getting
>=3B
>=3B RPM. MP inc= hes
>=3B 2000 - 14.0
>=3B 3000 - 15.5
>=3B 4000 - 19.3
&g= t=3B 5000 - 21.6
>=3B 5700 - 24.5 (topped out)
>=3B
>=3B Wi= th the turbo removed.
>=3B
>=3B 2000 - 15.8
>=3B 3000 - 15= .3
>=3B 4000 - 19.7
>=3B 5000 - 24.8
>=3B 5833 - 29.8
>= =3B
>=3B Is this indicative of restriction in my plumbing? Perhaps in= the inter cooler? A dirty air filter? A bad pop off valve or a leak not al= lowing the air pressure getting to the intake. Or????
>=3B
>=3B = I am uncertain what other permitters I need to check and provide. I am just= starting my diagnosis in my Phase One testing. I only have 1.6 hours in th= e air so far. I value ya'll's direction and input.
>=3B
>=3B He= ck=2C perhaps this is working properly but it just doesn't seem right/comfo= rtable.
