URGENT HELP !!! soooooooo close
My car would not boost over 9psi and I was gonna sell it today. 30 mins ago ,I was reading one of Kevins posts on adjusting the waste gate actuator and it FIXED MY BOOST. I put 1 washer between the actuator and the turbo and since I am clueless of how to set my boost control on HI or LO I put it on OFF which is suppost to be stock boost. I hit the gas and then at 2nd at about 3500 rpms boost controller read 17-18psi and my car rocketed down the street. Of course I have 1 fake coupler left on my IC piping and that thing blew like outward and ripped itself. OK, so now I kow I am not selling my car and thanks to Kevin I can finally beat the 9 pounds of boost. BUT, my wastegate was loose when without a washer, but a little bit tight if I put 1 washer in there but it fixes my boost problem. So I have a feeling if I redline it I will get into 20 pounds of boost. But that is too damn much for stock fuel system, stock injectors, I dont know much about my fuel system but how is it possible for me to hit 18psi at 3500rpms? How do i know my wastegate actuator is not too tight and might now open my wastegate ? I cant control boost and I dont want a blown engine right now so I am clueless of what to do or test next.
Please give me some feedback. Thanks all and Kevin especially for saving my GSX.
