boost trick

Suprapowaz! · 03-09-2006, 05:34 PM

my friend uses an MSD 2 step rev limiter on his 5sp Conquest Tsi. he says it retards his timing at the same time as he revs it at a stand still. retarding the timing makes the engine think it's under load, so it starts to build boost. he says he can build full boost at the tree before launching. at least that's what he said. i have no experience with that device. you can find those little critters at www.summitracing.com or www.jegs.com .

EDIT: i was looking through those websites for it, but all i found was either a rev limiter or timing retarder. unless they have one that features both, then you might have to get two seperate ones. i'll ask him if has one that has both items, or if he had to get them seperate.
