internal wastegates

[Turb]

is there a way to test the preset wastegate settings on an internal wastegate?

and how can i adjust it to raise or lessen the boost level?

don't have the funds yet to get a boost controller so it's out of the question for now.

thanks

Just make a bleed valve. Or buy one.

You need to run a hose from the wastegate actuator to the plenium chamber. The hose usually runs from the Wastegate actuator to in front of the turbo. Also you need a check valve to let air only flow one way through it.

Basicaly what you are doing is tricking the wastegate actuator into thinking you have less boost then you really do

Lemme know if you need better instructions.

so you mean instead of getting the boost signal from the compressor, the boost signal is now coming from the intake manifold?

i've read from corky bell's book that this is good if you want the best throttle response but the problem is there is more heat.

the bleed valve can increase the boost but how can i lessen the boost? does it depend on the original preset boost on the wastgate? then i should get an internal wastegate with a low preset boost and hook up a bleed valve to increase the boost? am i right or am i confusing you? hehe

guess i need better instructions too..

thanks!
