New video! You can gain significant wastegate efficiency increases by blending an external wastegate the exhaust into it smoothly. Weld that internal one up! ...now to watch :) ....
Best vid for turbo ! Cant wait for n.5. But u missed the parts about the air compressor. Also why go for this chinese turbo, a used 2860 would be better...
Nice video! It looks like you're running a PowerFC. What log viewer were you using? Also, have you tried using CoPilot? That's what I use on my build. I'm going to go watch your other videos as well, so if that information is already in a previous video, apologies for the redundancy. Haha
I couldn't get co-pilot working quite right for some reason, I just use FC-edit.... And this project is not finished, I need to get the clutch swapped over when I get some other non MR2 commitments done.
@@threepotMR2 Ahh. I was able to get it running on Windows 11 and it logs most* things well. However, due to me changing a bunch of stuff, I am only able to log AFR from the datalogit instead of a direct digital serial input. Also, Boost is coming in, but it doesn't seem to log reliably. I'm still chasing down some gremlins after my lengthy build. I may put a video together about those things at some point. Good luck with the rest of your project. Feel free to message me if you want any assistance with CoPilot or if you have other questions or want to share ideas.
@@lordtakuban I got copilot running, but I couldn't make sense of any of the auto tuning functions. I just felt that FC-Edit did exactly what I wanted with no over complication. Are you using the optional boost control harness and correct MAP sensor?
@@threepotMR2 No. I'm using a PLX SM-Pro sensor as well as a PLX AFR sensor and wired those into the analog inputs on the Datalogit. I'm using a MAF and tuning with that. The key to using CoPilot to auto-tune is in setting up your target AFR map. It took me a while when I first started using it to get that figured out. And that was back when it was still being developed by Kevin.
@@lordtakuban I use the same wideband kit, it was cheap but works great. The apexi boost control kit is really good, hold the target boost really well and means I get the boost logged too.

Fantastic episode ! lots of great information, looking forward to the next part mate. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Part 6 I'll do a full breakdown of the exact costs of all the parts and where I got everything.
@@threepotMR2 nice one, appreciate that man 👍🏽
What did the stock actuator that it came with make boost wise ?
@@avalaugh1980 From memory when I tested it, I concluded it was a 1 bar actuator.
Cool. Subscribed!
