Diggs24 Build Thread - "Tapioca XL"

[Switchleg]

We are dropping ignition angle making the efficiency of the engine drop to roughly 35%. EGT do increase so there is a user set maximum duration allowed to prevent over heating but we are not dumping fuel into the exhaust in these videos (hence no bangs) which is generally how most do RAL. Spark cut will be an option (already implemented and works) as it can spool even faster and can help reduce engine efficiency more to maintain rpm for longer duration at the expense of safety.

Update on pcv. BK revision also putting out smokescreen on cloverleafs after maybe a few hundred miles. I am unsure why this car can’t run anything but the original pcv. Very strange.

I'm just jealous that's it's still in the 60's where you are even though your DA screams high humidity.

 

[Diggs24]

Yeah, pretty humid today.

Why not? Seems like the only solution to stop it.

Spark cut RAL by @Switchleg Ignore the EPC, forgot to turn off my litany of SAI, O2, LPFP codes and P3043 popped. Low boost as always to test. No log because I'm an idiot.

EDIT: CEL/MIL is a new feature to show you it has engaged. As if you couldn't hear it, lol.

This is very cool! Is there an rpm threshold that has to be hit for it engage?

 

[Diggs24]

You can set min and max what you’d like. I’m told big turbos should stay above 3k tho.

Also, this is the weak setting, I’ve heard louder but those guys don’t have cats to worry about.
