mine looks a little bit brown/beige 'ier, using 98oct and running around 11:1 at 0.8bar, it used to creep, now I ported the wastegate, now it can't keep the boost up, 0.8bar at 3-5k and 0.6bar at 7krpm guess exh manifold is cracked too hard, turbo is knightsports hybrid

Around 2000-3000 miles or so.

about 5 private drift sessions and tons of spirited driving.
1 full track day = 14 laps in.

9 psi and 87 octane fuel and 10.3 af is exactly why it still runs. Their is no problems with this. All these people winging have no idea.

Just keep your timing conservative and keep fuel ratios under 10.50s, you can run up to 13-14psi of boost, have tuned plenty of cars and crap fuel. run rich and no timing and they go for ages.

He can't control his timing unless you mean rotating the CAS, which affects the the timing at ALL RPMs and LOADs. He can't really adjust his AFR's on a STOCK ECU. He just threw in some 720's, BNR 3/4 hybrid called it a day. No Disrespect to either of you, If it works, Thats great.

I Would NOT Run My Car That Way. Not enough engine control/management.

Best of luck, Rotary Power!

WHen i had my BNR installed it never saw past 7-8 psi.
I never turn my boost up. I mean NEVER!.

Now i am on the stock turbo cause i never put the BNR back after the event.
BUt the stock turbo is also not boosted except for the creep it sees on 3rd + gears.
