No where Fun, Pennsylvania
Bare with me here fellas.

WOT, dry day, 25 psi, I flow 2000-2200 Hz

75% or more throttle, rainy day, same boost, I flow 2600-3000+ Hz.

Temperature same. And I understand humidity and all that can effect the density of air and this and that. But I feel like... rain is like 'glue' and it's sealing a boost leak.

I mean this is like a difference of night and day with the buttock in seat dyno test. You feel the car take off alot more on a rainy day.

Mods are in profile.



Second...

I made my own boost leak tester. Made sure it seals and what knot. I pump the hell out of my system with a hand pump and I can't build more than 2 psi on the gauge. Do I have that large of a boost leak, or is a hand pump not effecient enough??? I've tried several different pumps. I do not hear any audible sounds.


Please leave your opinions, bitches, gripes, and flames.

I mean this is like a difference of night and day with the buttock in seat dyno test. You feel the car take off alot more on a rainy day. It could even be 50 degrees colder on a dry day and still only flow 2200 Hz.

idk if youl read he other post but it could be the higher density and cooling power of rain opposed to air. just a small opinion.
