AXT want $1500 just for their fuel enrichment kit (modified altitude compensator)
Keith: do you do an enrichment device similar to AXT's/Ray Hall?
I was just thinkin of an excuse to modify the HAC module. I run a max of 18psi and get 10-12 psi @1800rpm matted with a little lag in the higher gears. Runs a max 1100f on any hill. Id like a little more fuel down low to help spool a bit better but leave the top end fueling as is.
Dougal,
I'm running 14lbs. with no boost compensator. What sort of differences in performance might I see with one? What model compensator is appropriate?
Maybe none eh?
Or maybe just that pump spring mod?
aaron
you mean like my 80's vintage sleeve bearing volvo turbo?
heh heh....
I may change the governor spring.
Whats your exhaust diameter .
TD05-12B
.....in all honesty it seems to work well, puts out around 14lbs and there's never any easily perceivable black smoke. it does seem to work better than another turbo 3B I have with a Garret volvo turbo from the same era.
I'm thinking changing the spring will help with fuel mileage which is always a plus
Gerg, you don't get more fuel. My understanding is that full fuel is only delivered at higher boost situations. It sort of accomplishes the same thing as a boost compensator. Swap in the spring from an old turbo Mercedes. It's a bit longer and has a different spring rate.
I've not done it so other may know more.........ie feel free to correct my understanding.
