1.0 vs 1.2 bar, on ct9b

[Weyro]

So ive got my Glanza set up to 1bar with supporting mods.

The ebc has a scramble button, so i was wondering if using it to scramble to 1.2 for overtaking would have any real benefit, in terms of power.

Yes you will notice it I have mine set to 1.2 my god the noise it makes when at 1.2

[Weyro]

yea i remember you said you run that, are you on standard internals?

[akyakapotter]

Sure am mate I don't run it very often on 1.2 but will be fine I'm at 1bar Daily until tomorrow when I put my td04 on

[Weyro]

nice, ill definitely be using it then, on occasion

awesome, if you dont mind me asking, how much does it cost roughly to get a td04 setup together

[akyakapotter]

I've spent about £900 ish with another £600 ish for mapping and emb so about £1300 ish at a guess lol

[Weyro]

Ive been thinking about either going td04 or keeping it simple and getting a hybrid.

the car currently has some kind of hybrid but no idea which lol, been looking at the speed vision ones

[akyakapotter]

Td04 mate I'll let you no what it's like if I get it fitted tomorrow lol

I think the power envelope tails off a shit load after 1.0bar on the ct9, it starts blowing lots of hot air instead. I wouldnt run it a 1.2bar other than in scramble mode, for the odd race

[DavidAshton]

1.2 bar feels plenty quicker than 1 bar on a CT9 for sure, much more aggressive i thought.

Everyone always says it will just blow hot air but I have never seen any evidence of this. My cold side intercooler pipe work was always freezing at 1.2 bar so even if there was an increase in heat it wasn't significant.

On my ct9a boosted fine at 1 bar. 1.1 still fine but above nothing more. peak power not so great on a ct9. Better get a hybrid then you feel the extra after 6200rpm.
