I have had a turbo on my 02 s10 for about 2-ish years now. Ran great, just had a pretty decent exhaust leak ruining a lot of fun for a long time due to a crappy exhaust shop and not enough time to get it fixed until just the other weekend. Now it sounds great. One thing I noticed though was that I am having a horrible time trying to get it to go into boost. I can barley get it past 3 psi when with the exhaust leak it would at least go to 4 or 5. I'll probably check for boost leaks this weekend since I had the turbo off to fix the exhaust, but I cant see it being that bad though to not make any boost.
What I am working with: It's a 2002 2.2 s10 flex fuel. Has a evo 1-3 style turbo (td05h-big 16g). Just recently put on 44# injectors over the stock 28#. Now I am working on doing the tune.
I am a noob when it comes to this so bear with me as I may ask some stupid questions here and there. I bought the tuning software about a month ago and have been reading a bunch of what I should and shouldn't do. My goal is to have some decent amount of power but still maintain my good mpg's.
I'll upload my tune and a log I did earlier today going to work. Now its about a good 40 min log but right around 23 min in or frame 7260 is where I did a pull everything else before that is in town and some back roads. Was getting on the highway there, then pretty much after all that its just cruising the highway till i get off for work.
