Possible to adjust below stock boost w/boost controller? Wondering about bhp on setup

[scotty]

Hi,

I'm wondering.. is it possible to adjust below stock boost level w/boost controller?

Also, the stock 238bhp, is this on crank?

Just want to know as I need to aprove my GE to GTE swap, and probably need a dyno session. So I'm wondering if it's possible to get 238bhp or less with lex AFM, 550's, AFPR and walbro fuel pump? And then just adjust boost level up again after dyno session.

Opposite of shimming the waste gate would do it so it has little/no preload.

i.e. WG open all the time.

The stock hp levels are crank numbers.

Thanks for replies.

How do I perform the oposite of shimming? How much reduction would I be able to get from this?

Thanks.

You need to lengthen the WG rod, depends on how wide you leave it open but I'd imagine you could get it quite lowif left full open
(maybe +10>15% of NA)

a stock supra on stock boost no exhaust completely stock is 189hp to the wheels..

Remove c-clip and wastegate arm so it can flap around.

But why would you want to dyno at a lower boost level, just to turn it back up again afterwards? I am lost.

he needs to pass an inspection for his swap. needs to show that he does not have too much hp for his chassis. otherwise he has issues licensing it

And fail visual....:nono:

too bad you couldnt make the bov leak. had one fail last season part open... could not get over 4lbs at all

damn glad im not in Norway. is dyno is manditory when swaping an engine that was offered stock in a car? seems overkill... i could see if you put a v12 in a corolla or something it never belonged in. mk3 gte is an absolute turd in stock trim imo. bpu it just begins to start to wake up enough to be even road worthy. again "imo" dont hate

but then the zip ties and duct tape would look out of place

Are they allowed to remove hoses? If not maybe a restrictor plate is in order?
