on unitronic website:
1.8T stage 2 on peak boost is 18 psi
which is 1.275 bar

so why the spike for some of us to 1.4...

http://www.unitronic-chipped.com/ecu-tu ... 009-stage2

I know in winter I spike 1.4

summer 1.3...

1.4 vs 1.275 isnt a huge spike so no need to worry.
Basically it happens because your boost pid isnt tuned perfectly for your motor. Ideally you actual should meet requested and then not overshoot.

Since fitting the cupra cooler I just touch 1.3bar now so can only imagine that the old cooler was very congested either in the core or the piping but funny enough, less boost but it feels stronger.

if you guys are peaking at over a bar boost, do you guys run on a mix? as i would assume running 1.4 with without compensation on the fuel side, would lead to deternation. Just asking, as i had agu, BT setup, maped 0.9 low boost, and anything over i either used octain booster or avgas

Spike 1.3bar and hold 1.1bar on Revo Stage 1.

Car is stock (Hardware wise)

Logs show zero timing pull.

1 bar boost on a big turbo is not the same as 1 bar boost on a small turbo.

Boost PRESSURE is not the same as air flow.

Think of it this way. A Truck tyre takes 2 bar of air when you fill the tyres... so does my bicycle! Which has more air? Its a measure of PRESSURE in the intake manifold. A BT car can make way more power with alot less boost.

honestly at the moment i have no idea. i really havent time to go to CPI in months for anything. i'm in the process of getting a boost gauge fitted...then i'll check that and compare with what CPI has on my car....any numbers i say now will just be me grabbing numbers....i could quote from Torque Pro, but no idea on the accuracy. it gave me 1.3bar many many moons ago...could be changing software also in the year so who knows...
What software are you looking at changing to?

The options are FRC and Stealth in CPT. Im not a big fan of Ferroli so Revo is out. Stealth is the closest to me
