today, just moved my boost up to 18psi from my daily 16 on a vf34 w/fmic setup...but the thing was i had a crazy spike at 22.9 ya i freaked, like wtf is goin on here...altho scary i mus admit it was fun...anyways any suggestions out there to prevent this crazy a$$ spike...ive got a blitz sbcid boost controller and i have the gain set pretty high to deal with the pressure drop from the cooler, its set at i believe 60...but spool time is pretty good tho...any ideas for this crazy spike and how to stop or prevent it?

im on cobb reflash em

 

port & polish your turbo and get it custom tuned.

 

Drop the boost controller?

 

Definatly drop the boost controller, and have it custom tuned, the cobb isnt meant for a FMIC setup.

Cheers,
Austin

 

He may have a problem getting a custom tune on Oahu. Last I heard, the island still hasn't got a tuning facility with an AWD dynamometer.

yep....its a big price to pay to live in paradise...switching over to utec is in mind, either that or accessecu, just having to road tune, (i honestly dont like the idea of it, but gotta do it)
there are awsome tuners out here, but it in awd community we are on our own, xpect for ONE hopeful guy that was a former suby owner, dont want to hassel em, he takes care of the entire suby community in oahu
but as far as running the fmic on cobb, from what i read and advice from tuners cobbs maps are on the conservative side, so adding the fmic wont kill me, but i just wont get the full potential of the fmic...
using a piggyback from what i understand is a real pain, having to deal with floating maps, and retuning all over...someone please shine more light on the utec system, i read more b!tching and moaning about utec rather than the awsome side to the system...thanx for tha replies
