Gday just recently turboed my 3.8 ecotec, all fab works etc are done and now its tine for injectors and memcal tune. I was told it will be fine but wanted to see what others have done. Turbo t4, all stock, l67 injectors and a memcal tune to suit the l67 injectors so motor doesnt lean out, will only be running stock psi. Thanks in advance.

Superchargers are linear to rpm, turbos are not.
Are you suggesting running L67 tune with wastegate set at stock L67 boost level?

Hmmm... i was told stock boost for l67 are about 6 or 7 psi. My t4 turbo has a internal gate and pretty sure it's at 7 psi

Keeps sayin too large to post

Need to shrink the photos to large. You can easily do this by emailing them to yourself and selecting large in resize. I do it all the time.

Take the photo a little further out and then crop the edges. Thats how I chop the size down

I'm no expert with boost or V6's. Just something to think about.
Delcowizid is though. Wait for him to chime in.
