Just curious if you'd think it's a good idea to adjust the turbo wastegate to a higher PSI, on the hot weather we're getting here in summer?
I hardly ever press the pedal past halfway, even when accelerating on a highway onramp, but 100+F temps do have quite an amount of heat soak.
If I do press the pedal to the metal, I notice there's a power boost I barely ever feel riding the car normally.
So I'd say the engine has some potential laying dormant.
I just feel like the engine lowers acceleration pretty much above 3k RPM, at half throttle, which is why I usually shift before the 3k RPM mark.
If I press the pedal to the metal, it accelerates fine to 4k RPM, before lowering in acceleration.
What I want to achieve is to continue acceleration torque to 4k rpm, even with the pedal halfway pressed. So, in other words, get more boost from 3-4k rpm.
Thoughts?
