string Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 won't boost over .4 bar. turbos good. ext w/g's good. all mechanical side seems good. just want reassurance of it being a leak. anyone else has issues after swappin turbos over. cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
string Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 just thought i'd explain a bit more. foot down and seems to take ages to spool to .4. i know going from a hybrid to td series will be a bit laggy. so with it taking ages to spool, ext w'g opens a little but only heard a proper scream once. all the other time it opens a touch. flutters aswell so boost is being produced. boost leak or not? cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 So you fitted a new turbo?Was gonna ask what spring is in the wastegate, go through all your intercooler pipes must be a leak somewhere Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lee_EP82 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Before i had mine mapped i had it running off wastegate spring and max it managed was 0.38 bar going off a 0.5 bar spring due to the little loss you get from fmic.Is yours set up to run off wastegate spring?

Dean @RW-Developments Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 was going to say the same mine only boosted on spring pressure at 0.4 so i turned it up to .5 with mbc made a hell of a difference.Dean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
string Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 ok thats cool. i was proper bummed aboutit not making more boost. watsgate is supposedly a .7/.8 spring. yeh it straight of compressor to ext w/g nipple. so mbc on to see if it makes more boost then get ebc? any recommendations. cheers guys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
