Default Another BP turbo build

Thought I would bring this post from my journal over here as I'll be part of the FI crowd soon.

After lots of thought I've finally decided the Z will be getting boosted
She will continue to be my daily driver so I've got my fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.

For any of you with experience boosting the Z my ears are wide to all thoughts & experiences, any advice is much appreciated. Expecting a bit of an adventure here but the more I know going in the better. So, onto my parts list.

Motor is staying stock (for now)
BP Single Turbo kit - COMP 800HP twin-scroll, TBB, etc.
HKS EVC-6 Boost Controller
GaleForce Premium A-Pillar
INNOVATE Boost / Wideband Gauge
AEM Wideband
CSF triple pass Radiator
Z1 34 row Oil Cooler
OS Giken GT Twin Disk Clutch
RJM Adjustable Pedal
ZSpeed CMAK CSC Delete *** Making an attempt to install the kit around this ***
Ecutek Software
PTP Lava Turbo bag
ARK Grip V2
Daily Tires: Michelin PS4S
Powder Coat going on IC piping
Heat wrapped hot side piping

As far as the tune I am on Ecutek already & will just need to hop on the dyno for a retune. Here is what I'm thinking as far as my maps are concerned;
At least until I work up some funds for an engine re-build I'm thinking of starting with something like a 6psi waste gate spring in. While I want to believe that I will control myself, I'm not so sure I can. If I am correct having the 6psi spring paired with the EBC should give me up to 12pounds of boost which should be PLENTY for now.
Again she's the daily driver so looking for conservative tune as far as timing, etc. Depending on what type of numbers we are seeing on the dyno may decide to go a little less conservative.
TUNE 1: SMOKEY TIRE MODE
Med or High boost – NO Traction Control (TC)
TUNE 2: TRAVEL / DAILY
Low boost (~6psi) – Ecutek TC
[TUNE W/NO BOOST CONTROLER??? This will allow me to have a safe map to use if the BC shoots the ****? Talk to Frank.]
TUNE 3: DAILY
Med boost (~8psi) – Ecutek TC
TUNE 4: RACE
High boost (~10-12psi) – Ecutek TC

Will follow up with updates! Goodies are showing up daily


GaleForce and YzGyz like this.
