To date I have yet to see any straight K24 post better times than mine....So, I guess I am just calling it as I see it

Cheers, KevinI have yet to see an apples to apples comparison. The examples you tried to pass off in the previous thread were bogus if you ask me.
I want to see the same car with the same software.
Could we make more power with a K24 by running more boost? Sure, but then we are out of the efficiency range of the turbo and running the risk of failure. Not worth the risk.
How about this. Instead of waiving around time slips and 60-130 times, how about explaining it from an engineering standpoint.
Without giving away the farm, educate me on why your 16/24 hybrids are a better option than a straight K24. How does it all work?

You will be able to HEAR HEAR the sound for miles.
Either way, you got it covered.

To the OP..sorry for the hijack and congrats on a great run. Mike if you want to start a new thread or take it private I would be more than happy to "educate" you...lol...Kevin
2 board members ran their cars last week here in chicago.... one with stage 2 ZC and one with k24/18gs.... the k24/18gs seemed to have a little more during the runs... but then the stage 2 ZC car had flowed plugs ...
They seemed both very strong....

In our business, that can get you in trouble.
Not all of our clients are as savy as some of the guys on 6speed. They may not know what can and can't be done.
They are not under the hood of their car every weekend. They don't know what afr, egt, maf, map, mbc, duty cycle, open/closed loop mean....
Most of our clients want a bolt on kit that they never have to worry about. They just want to put gas in it and go.
Plus, RCNJ is not 18 years old. He is an intelligent and informed car enthusiast. Yet he still, in my humble opinion, risked hurting his motor by running too much boost.
Hell, I don't want readers to think that I'm anti-horsepower. I just have strong opinions on how to develop a kit that is user friendly to a mass market.
I also get worked up when reading unsubstantiated hype. Hence my comments about some of the hybrids.

I think you misunderstood what happened that day. I never run my car @ 1.43 bar. My package was tuned to run 1.2 @ 93 octane and 1.3 @ 100 octane. But, this was setup during the winter in colder climate and as you know that day it was 80 degrees. So , on my way to your shop I realized that the car was only putting out 1.1 on low and 1.2 on high. So then I took the liberty of cranking up both settings to achieve my normal boost levels and as you saw I over did it. I would say the realistic hp for my setup was the first run where I made 556hp @1.3 and the afr's were perfect.

So when the car was dynoed, HOW was the boost monitered??
Why did Mike (AWE--very experienced, no doubght) think it was boosting
so high? I just want to understand.
MK
My K24/18G set up I believe will be the only one like it: larger TB, along
with all the other goodies and yes I am fearful of high boost, won't do it!

I think the afr's is what concerned him at this point. But like I stated before this was my doing by over cranking the boost while I was running on the way to AWE trying to set high boost setting to 1.3. If you look at my first run the car made 556 rwhp @ 1.3 with afr's around 12.5 which is normal and is where this setup is recommended to run according to Protomotive with 100 octane or higher.
