Is your ct26 high flowed? If it is, why the tuner did not push boost upto 18psi on e85. That could of gave you an extra 20 to 30 kw and a extra 20 nm of torque in your mid range. Unless your turbo pushed hot air after 15psi, I went from 18 to 24psi on my e85 change over, that was 45kw extra and heap of midrange torque.

Yes it is high flowed. I'm very surprised he didn't try more boost. I'll have a look at the maps in the ECU to make sure there are no dumb settings at the higher boost levels and I'll dial up the boost controller a bit.
I have run e85 before on a 2L with the same turbo and ran 24psi and got 244kW. I won't be able to run that much boost with this engine because it flows a lot better so I may crank it up to 18-19psi and see how it goes. I have an electronic dash so I can see the intake temperature while I'm driving.
The turbo is either maxxed out or very close to it so I'd be surprised if I can get much more out of it.

If it isn't raining on Friday, I'll be at Eastern Creek for practice if any of you want to pop in to say hello.

What are your thoughts on Friday at this stage?

The car went well. I had to fiddle with the boost controller though. I ended up running 16-17psi.
My best time was 1m49.6s with a top speed of 213kph down the straight.
I had fun!
There was a McLaren 650 there. Sweet.
Thanks for coming out and keeping me company, Highlander

Love it Glen. Absolutely love it.
That engine seems to be very torquey. Pulls like a bloody train. Are you using about 6000 RPM before changing up ?
