Took my wastegate off and saw soot, so reinstalled it with an airline to compress the piston while i tightened the clamp. Saw maybe a .5psi difference peaking at 15.06psi but no higher despite increasing wgdc.
Found my original ebcs- which did have damaged wires, somehow they melted together...
Very interesting about the exhaust pressure, this never occurred to me. My downpipe is some cheap catless crappy one, looks like it's a 2.6 inch or 66mm which is basically stock size. The rest of the exhaust I pulled off a junkyard speed3 and don't recall the size but it did fit on my stock...
Sorry for the confusion- at 10psi I had the wrong springs in the wastegate, which i fixed letting it reach the 14-15 range.
Will told me "the boost not moving even though i added wgdc is telling me the issue is mechanical" and that I would know I fixed it when it made 'proper boost' (20psi...
3 4th gear pulls tc off, the first two staring around 2k and going to 6k slowly. The 2nd of the slow ones has smoother throttle application.
The faster one starts at 3k and goes to 6k.
Still not fixed
I can boost to between 14-15 psi now, I think I fixed a leak a bit ago
However the boost controller still does not respond to waste gate duty cycle, as it is stuck in the 14-15 range.
I have tested the EBCS with a 9v battery and can feel it functioning, and if I switch the NO...
I am running a v1 BNRS4, with a Corksport ebcs, and Tial 44mm external wastegate, it's setup as an interrupt style, and upon visual inspection the lines seem to be properly routed. I've pressure tested it recently and it held 20psi so I don't think it's an boost leak.
I'm tuning with Will and...
Was driving and the engine suddenly died, threw a bunch of codes but upon reflashing the tune I’m left with 5.
My car is modded, in progress of tuning with Purple Drank, BNRS4, ewg, hpfp, corksport side motor mount, unplugged EGR and other supporting stuff. I don’t think it’s directly related...
