Default How quick does a K26/6 boost?!

So considering my latest poll. I have to have the Standard to compare to first!

When exactly Does the k26/6 spool to 15psi. ?!!!!!

Dual wastegate comparison preferred.

Everything I've searched tonight says/proves 3200rpms.


I don't care what else you've done to the motor.

I say before 2800 rpm; based on my eyes (and passenger at the same time) watching the boost gauge and rpms. Not very scientific! I just brought my cord home for Zeitronix data logging but I'm riding my bike a lot lately so no promises that I can prove it soon.

Not proved might be useless, but for comparison Nize's data logs show a 26/8 by ~2900. FWTW

I'm excited to see your results!

Damn. Those are some quick ones. I now feel like mine wasn't up to the task .
So. I guess I'll just compare my orignal k26/6 dyno to my new one. Everyone I've found on here were later. Maybe they were 26/8s?
But 2600rpm. I'll find out on Wednesday what RPM I'm at when I'm going 52mph. That is where I reached full boost with the K26/6

Mine does it at 2600 as well. I have a Tial 38, Lindsey 3" and a Vitesse MAF.

I've been going to the gym, I running a lot leaner these days. No, but seriously, that datalog was from 2 yrs. ago, while I was experimenting with the piggy-back. My final tune ended up around 11.5 at Redline.

I no longer have the K26/6. I'm now playing with a LR Super48.

It's Ok, I like the extra top end, but i'm still acclimating to the extra 400 rpm of lag. I guess I got spoiled by the K26.
