VE tables and kPa values for a boost
Posted: Tue May 02, 2006 9:45 pm
On a turbo application, I created my initial VE table by generating based off hp/tq and displacement and kPa inputs. The table then gets generated ranging from the lowest kPa rating (0 or 20kPa for idle) to 180kPa (my boost pressure, 0.8bar).
Now lets say I burn that to the ECU, turn the car off, close megatune, reopen megatune, turn the car on and I go back to the VE table, I see kPa values only up to 100kPa! Am I missing something with the configuration of a boosted engine?
If I am missing something and need to change something, could this be a reason as to why my car seemed to actually LOSE power as the turbo spooled?
Thanks for the help!
