    As the stock ecu\'s will be so easily modified to allow for power-ups an aftermarket ecu won\'t be required for big powerups like turbo/superchargers

    Pretty clever decision imo leaving it n/a, avoids any warranty issues for Toyota/Subaru up to these 3rd parties, I\'d say there will be so many b]power up[/b] options available shortly, the problem will just be choosing which one.

    Seriously, is this what kids are calling it these days.

    Too much Mario Kart.

    Which bits dont fit? Happy to explain more/different if i know what youre confused about

    Power power = more fuel = more heat being generated

    That i can understand, all things remaining equal. eg VF28 @ 170kw would create less heat than @ 200kw.

    I was under the impression that changing turbos would change the range of efficiency and therefore heat characteristics. Big efficient Turbo @ 18psi, vs small less efficient turbo (for the car) @ 18psi, which would be creating the most heat.

    I would also make the assumption that it is not a direct proportion of heat/power. Eg the exhaust gas @ 290 would not be 30% higher than @ 200. Or would it? or would it only be marginally Higher. Thats what i'd like to know.

    Nothing wrong with a little E-Wank.

    on a serious note:

    You have to look at compressor maps and efficiency islands to understand whats going on turbo side. That to some regard dictates your IAT or intake temps. A garrett like any other turbo can get out of efficiency quickly, the gt30 is around 25+ psi on my build. on a vf thats about 18-19psi for their given flow in lbs/min - which drives the net power expected. Some of this can be offset by a more or less efficient intercooler obviously.

    Like gotasuby said at the basic level more power = more heat. You can also adjust you're AFR's to control heat, basically more fuel to a point = lower exhaust temps and lower power, but also reduced tendency to det i believe and you could increase engine timing. The opposite is true for running lean (simply) hotter exhaust temps but more power (generally) and higher chance of det.

    * im no tuner and this is perhaps very over simplified and not 100% accurate but you get the picture.

    thats kind of the epxplantion i was hoping for. Though it still doesnt quite fit with teh idea i have in my head.

    all i think this proves is that you're an e-wanker. please refrain from dribbling in my build and take your pointless s*** elsewhere.

    And no i do not understand how the temp can be so signigicantly hotter. I would have thought that an efficiently running engine would have similar exhaust temps despite power levels, be that @ 200 with smaller turbo, or 290 (your rough power level) with a much larger more efficient turbo, as it isn't working so hard.

    Im gonna set mine up just for the bang bang noise. Hahaha

    I had mine setup for the anti lag on launch and flat shifts.

    1.2 bar launch is fun.

    Didn't do any damage to the turbo in the 60k I put on the car with it before selling at 197k. This included dozens of times used in anger at drags etc and to impress or any the neighbours.
