GT Phayer Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 it comes up from vaccum and stays on 0 mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flaminsam Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 does it stay on 0 all the way through the rev range? ive heard that the td05 can only create boost when the engine is around 5000 rpm on the 4efte. yes the piping is correct on the wastegate, the pipe needs to go to the compressor side of the turbo. and if your not creating any boost check to see if the external wastegate is being held open. this will cause the gasses in the exhaust manifold to basically bypass the turbine in the turbo. but it will sound like there's no exhaust on the car.

GT Phayer Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) all the way to 7000 rpm and i get alot of exhaust noise not screamer tho and ive tested the wastegate with a compressor doesnt seem to be sticking. Edited March 3, 2012 by GT Phayer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flaminsam Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 has the old wastegate i.e actuator penny washer been blanked off i.e left closed? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT Phayer Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 its been welded shut mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT Phayer Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 well i took the turbo off and the penny is welded shut and has not failed so put it back together and double checked everything and still no boost Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flaminsam Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 this is a strange one. its asif the engine either doesnt have enough flow to spool up the turbo or the gasses are bypassing the turbo completely but i dont see how that can be? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I would be getting a remap before any boost ups you want that mixture spot on, might aswell get a ebc and map at the same time... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
