[GT3turbo]

U gutta remember santa pod is slightly uphill,

If you went to another strip you would prob take .5 a sec off ya time.

[Puntoboy]

LOL I've never heard that ever!

However, I know Crail is down hill.

[GT3turbo]

Well its true.

[Puntoboy]

That doesn't prove a thing.

[Louis.P]

Im pretty sure my GT was slower than usual as well. I noticed that when i fitted the forge dv on sunday the car feels as if it pulls much harder and more noticable when im changing gears as well. Even my mates have commented saying it feels faster. Could the older baileys cause the car to be slower if it wasn't runnin right?

[Superman]

Yes, if its not operating correctly then it may be inducing slight compressor stall btu you migth not hear it if its stil dumping.

Ok, question though. Been reading a lot recently but I don't understand what compressor stall is exactly? Does it cause the blades to stop spinning for a split second?

[Superman]

Not stop them, well if you had massive overboost and no V then maybe you could stop them or even break them.

Its the boost pressure trying to escape once the trottle is shut, the next place to go is back out the turbo to atmosphere, in the process slowing the blades down, th enoise you hear is the air been sliced by the turbine, va va va va... or the pigeon coo!

Just think when you close the throttle on boost you have got twice the atmospheric pressure in your pipes and if there is an opening then t will rush out, which is back through the plumbing and through the tubo, AFM and out ur air filter.
