Okay i know im retarded but thats beside the point......... ahem...... I was just wondering if anyone knows from reading it on here or somewhere else or from personal expierience, how much boost people were pushing with there Ea 82T and what there timing was.... rightnow im running stock but since i desired more power... for the time being... i advanced the timing to about 30 degrees BTDC........... and how happy that people were with there newfound power... remember i am intercooledand have a bigger turbo that stock (wrx, its almost 2 big to spool) im planning on retarding the timing with the new boost so, dont worry, im not retarded in terms of the words engine and BOOM! :burnout:

you'd get a ton of information using the search button. you can wait for responses of course, but you'll learn alot more by spending some time with the search button. i have limited experience with turbo's so i got nothing to add.

You enjoy replacing head gaskets, right? They're generally the first to go.

Double post

Advancing your timing to 30, i hope you are running 100 octane, knock is gonna kill your motor

Its not knocking... and im not gonna pump up the boost with it running at 30 ill definately put it backdown to 20! I listend very carefully for knock for a verylong time! and im going to put it backdown to 20 today because it idles properly at 20 when i plug in the connector!

you should be driving with the connectors unplugged.

I know i know i know... i ment when i put it in test mode and then time it to 20 Btdc it idles great... i dont drive with them connected... i didnt know that i had to use them before i first timed it.... until i finaly looked around on here!!! i disconnect them after i time it and she runs real nice now GOT MY CAR BACK YAY
