i have been thinking a lot about the possible direction i will take in modding my car, and have come up with the following.
What we've all been reading, is that the computer limits boost via the bypass valve.
What we've all been wanting to do is open up the breathing on the car (I/H/E).
When you do that, you lower the boost (because the air moves more freely throughout the engine), yet gain power.
So by opening up the exhaust tract, and improving the intake, we will theoretically see LESS boost, but more power.
Here comes my latest theory:
If in fact the computer limits boost by function of boost alone, by freeing up airflow, the computer will allow boost to come back up to normal levels (if it's true that freeing up restrictions decreases boost) by it's inherent nature to desire to see such boost (if indeed it limits boost), giving us MORE power. Sounds good to me. anyone want to elaborate?
