Peter,
Tuning sounds like a good one for you to illustrate for us. A nice primmer on how to get the best out of ours engines would be great.
As for water injection. A little history. The first turbo kit that I made was in 1974... followed by making my first wastegate… then my first blow off valve ( I called it a “surge and lag pressure relief” because I didn’t know that they existed). Late 1974 I started using water injection because I had reached the fuel enrichment limit of my Spica 400 psi mechanical injection. This allowed performance exceeding a 911S, the fastest car at the time.
So I like to tune also. But a class would be great!
Right now my 5 yr old engine with about 20k miles (with housing water mods), a (10 lb spring) 12 psi boost. I think it is about normal.... 492 hp at clutch/ 418 rwhp on a 90 deg F day in New Orleans.
How should we tune it for more power at low boost?
Thanks,
Barry
