Hey,
I just got my 04 wrx tuned by s-squared, with a Stage 2 custom map, and was wondering what kind of boost people are getting in Reno (@4500ft)? Right now I am getting between .09-.1MPa, depending on where I am driving. Is this a pretty normal number for a stage 2 map? I know the target boost range is 15.8psi +-.5psi. When he tuned my car, he couldn't get the boost to go up in 3rd gear, so I only saw gains at the very top end of my curve(6000+rpms), which seemed weird. He thought I may have had a pressure leak some where. However, when i was driving back at sea level I was boosting to .11MPa,(almost 16psi)
in 4th and 5th gear, I think the ecu learned a little. That was a fun drive.
I know that I have an exhaust leak from the turbo to the dp and I can't tighten the bolt anymore w/o breaking it. Do you think that will cause a problem? My engine feels and drives great, so I'm not really worried about it.
Thanks,
Dave
