Airfieldevent: E92 COBB Stage2+ vs...

CarleeSWE · 05-26-2012, 02:09 PM

From 50km/h --> 250km/h

My first event with COBB and IÂ´m very happy with how my car performed, even though I got a few codes.

Got 30FF in almost every run
"Turbo charger, low pressure side"

30FC
"Turbo charger, density"

29F4 and 29F5
"Catalytic converter" + "Catalytic converter (bank2"

...stayed with me during the day but the car performs and boost as it should, BOV's are good, 99% sure NO boostleak and I donÂ´t need O2-sims with catless DP and Cobb stage2+ do I?

Great day anyway!

P30FF is boost leak, you're loosing power! Find it

nitehawk · 05-26-2012, 02:24 PM

Nice runs.
I was surprised to see the GTI and Focus pull like that; what mods to they have?

805beemer · 05-26-2012, 02:30 PM

Nice runs! I wish we could get that RS Focus stateside. I had an SVT focus back in 2003 and although it was no where near as fast as a 335 it sure handled well. I'm actually on the look out now for another one for a daily driver. They also have some turbo kits out now. 400hp in a 2700lb car would be a heck of a lot of fun.

G.I.Joe · 05-26-2012, 02:34 PM

Nice runs ans vids

benzy89 · 05-26-2012, 11:25 PM

Are you running meth or is this an all motor, FBO 335i w/ just the Stage 2+ tune?

07_335i_AW · 05-26-2012, 11:34 PM

No meth just DCI, IC and uncatted DP's with 93oct. Did 100-200km/h in 9,2s on the first try with Cobb yesterday evening

+1 Double check your FMIC connections

More vids? Please post, I'm addicted....

Hope yours is running better now than when you raced BT. I also hope I will get my RB's in time to come and race you guys in august or september.

Glad to hear that

COBB Tuning · 05-29-2012, 11:17 AM

Try checking all of your IC connections again and also maybe look into replacing the divertor valves or solenoids. We have seen them fail before giving those boost error related codes.

Otherwise, awesome runs! Really cool to see the top end versus that RS4.

Yes I would really like to do a smoke test before next event. But is it necessary to replace/upgrade the diverter valves on a 6at car?

Smoke test won't find it, you have to pressurize the system.

and I changed my DV's out, didn't need to but figured might as well. Charepipe and DV's

Jeff@TopGearSolutions · 05-29-2012, 05:34 PM

I could tell you had a laggy response at the punch, definitely check your connections.

You may want to try brake boosting in the future for an even bigger jump.

The only true boost leak test is one that pressurized the system to atleast 20 PSI. Smoke test is not pressurized, generally, so it wont tell you if you have a leak when things start expanding under pressure.

Ian

are there other signs of them failing besides codes? can WGDC be normal and you still have a leak or failing part?

Yes there is definitely a bit more lag now than I'm used to. But all IC connections are checked like 5 times and they are rock solid, but sure it could be something not visible.
