On fixed pully i could cleanly go to 17.5, then cut.. Did not want to MAP clamp and was going back to clutched pulley anyway. If this is a MAP issue, I will be interested in the fix (beyond resistors / potentiometer)

Nice job Craig.. looking forward to final results.

Did'nt want to leave the fellas hanging, but the cut is not at 17lbs. We are no where near that. That's all the news I got back today before other things took preference. Not to worried about it though.


We will be back at it tomorrow, hopefully with some more data for you guys.

News is it is at 18lbs causing the tb cut and found a exhaust leak so its off the dyno now. tony is playing with the tune trying to get around it. we have not clamped the map sensor yet and don't plan on turning the boost down either.

We are stuck at 4000rpms brotha, that's where the tb cut kicks in. Dyno shows 430rwhp, then the leak was discovered.

Never easy, is it lol.

E55 AMG on Ethanol-Meth; 600rwhp BMW M5
After putting the car back on the lift, we checked what type of springs were in the waste gates. The have 15lb springs in them which is good. That told us the the boost was not reaching the waste gates, it was leaking out somewhere prior causing the pressure to spike to 18lbs+. That spike caused the throttle cut which you guys already new about.

We smoked the system, and found the leak, so that is been buttoned up right now. Hopefully we will get her back on the dyno today, and have some more preliminary numbers.
