> [@Carnut](#): > > Nice power, does it get traction? > > Whats with the top end of the graph? Is the timing not smooth, whats the A/F look like up top? The only time I see changes in the power like that is from boost rising and falling with changes in timing or having too low of a wastegate spring and it having to fluctuate more to keep pressure. That’s the surging I believe I’m seeing up top. it wavers 2 psi up and down. I was forewarned it may be an issue w/the 60-trim. I’m going to try plumbing both sides of the WG, because right now it is only on the bottom barb. I have a 1 bar spring in there right now, and full boost is 28psi, so that might be stretchign the limits. I believe it to be a flow issue though, as its on a stock 1994 jetta 2.0 throttle body, and stock smallport 1.8t intake manifold. Traction, i have 14psi in 1st(as low as I can go), 2nd – 14psi raising to 17 at 6000rpm, 3rd is 24psi raising to 28 above 6k rpm, then 4th and 5th are 28. Autronic gear dependent/RPM dependent boost rules my face 🙂 ---

really makes me question the whole 20/20 thing. live and learn i guess. i still think the most impressive thing this car has done is drive from maryland to buffalo. i bet 20 bucks it can’t do it again. nice numbers homie. ---

I don’t see signs of surge on the graph aside from the one hiccup on spoolup. Moderate detonation or misfiring up top does cause manifold pressure oscillation, and it produces a graph like that, but hopefully it’s just a boost controller setting issue. Try a good manual boost controller to rule it out. It’s a quick, easy test.
