We are more and more running a Magic Box to maximize the airflow from our VNT turbo, and getting a true control of the boost.
This thread is intended for People who do have a Magic Box, and want to exchange with others about settings, results, or issues they may face, either installing or tuning the MB parameters to their Patrol configuration.
We welcome comments from anybody on the other thread talking about MB, but please, if you do not have one, avoid to post here.
I will not again explain why running a Tillix or Dawes + needle makes no sense as it transforms a fantastic VNT in a two stage turbo. Nor will I comment on another electronic VNT controller which does much worst than the simple solution I suggested with three valves.
No solution on the market manage the vanes of our turbo as they have to be. I tested and measured extensively all of them, and posted in different threads what I experienced, and all the relevant and detailed explanations. I bumped into stubborn people who wanted to continue to believe what they had been told and always believed. So be it. Others, more clever, read, studied, and understood what it was all about.
I will try my best to answer any question from any MB owner, and help them fine the right tune.
The more you will be sharing your findings and results here, the quicker others will be able to tune their own MB to their own Patrol configuration.
MB is now operated in several countries on both Di and CRDs.
A properly operated turbo provides more air to your motor ( not "boost" but "grams of air" the only thing which really matters ). More air being pushed in your motor means more fuel requested by your ECM to your IP, means more torque/power. As simple as that.
