Homefry RS2 Setup boost?

[Jamo]

You mean -0.80? cant have positive boost on idle unless you got some funky system take a pic of it

[stevieyid]

no its 0.8 bat on idle and on over run i will go 1 bar plus

[Jamo]

When you say 0.8 vacuum is this after you drive the car then take your foot off the acc pedal and go into overun as you will say -0.7-0.8 for brief moments

[stevieyid]

Ah ok i will look into getting a 3'' downpipe. Vacume side of things i had a vacume line that was plugged into the ECU which was duely replaced with the correct green ECU line. The black VAC line has been plugged but not sure what its for could this be somthing to do with the high vacume?

Thanks Jamo, it certainly does look like ihave the stock RS2 settings judging by the boost ratings on the thread. However it does say you can achieve 340-360hp before the need to upgrade the downpipe. Ill look into upgrading it as it would be better but i would think i should still be seeing 1.5bar boost at least. I have sent Paul a Pm but ot seen him on here for a long while

BHP are rated against 2.75 downpipe.

stock wont get you more than 320 with quite high egts

There are a few BTDT on the forum via Mihnea tuning

well if you have the n-stream paul,you most likely have a boost leak.the engine is sucking more air at idle from somewhere, and part of it is lost when on boost. at least that is what i think. if you had pauls rs2 normal chips then it would not explain the larger volume of vaccum

Says there RS2 only goes to 1.3 stock well I never! so steve you have a stock RS2 setup i'd imagine to do with downpipe.

Speak with s2central.net for confirmation

I have same "problems" with the boost, but i don't know what the max boost with pauls chips should be.

I just asked the same thing from paul today with PM.

What do you mean with the squeeling? Does it make the squeeling noise when you put pedal to the metal?

Yeah had the squeeling ever since fitting the RS2 bits althought it has significantly improved since newsh handy work What boost are you seeing? I take it you have Paul N Stream chips?

when you first got the homefry, was it only boosting at 1.3bar?

To be honest i dont know. This is the first time sice i had the upgrade that everything is running as it should.

[Jamo]

You really need to get it custom made to the car, generic ones just don't fit correctly.

Hayward & Scott, OJZ, Pipewerx, Prospeed, Powerspeed I think they are called as well

[stevieyid]

I know this has been covered but where is the best place to get the 3'' downpipe? Am i right in thinking the S2 is 2.5'' and the RS2 is 2.75''? If so could this be the cause of the squeeling i am getting (although only slightly now)

[Jamo]

So a 3'' downpipe thenis a must if im going to get the best of the map and the set up?

Yes sir, it will go like stink, I believe Paul has more aggressive homefry maps that you need afterwards to get the best of it.

I think the mrc high boost map is for the RS2 ecu only
