Alright guys, I need some help here. I tried almost everything but I still can't get rid of it.
Ok first off, The creep started when I installed my Apexi GT downpipe (2 1/2, maybe a little less) and RSR exhaust (3inch catback). So, I started saving for a new turbo because the options to get rid of the creep on the t-25 didn't seem like it wa worth it. About a month later I got a AGP T28. Install went fine, pretty straightforward. Primed it, broke in the turbo for a couple of hours and then I got on it. Still had creep.
So at this point, I figured the stock o2 housing was holding me back. I took it off, port matched it to the gasket and used a dremel to grind out as much as I could and then smoothed it out the best I could. I couldn't reach some areas, but for the most part I felt I got it pretty good. It was smoother, wider, and I opened up the wastegat area so that the hole was widened a good bit. Installed it, and I still had that damn creep.
Now I was getting a little pissed. My car was a reconstruct annd the wastegate bracket was damaged in the accident. I didn't replace it at the time because I wasn't having creep problems. SO I figured, maybe thats the problem. So I ordered a new wastegate and Installed it tonight. THE ####ING THING IS STILL CREEPING,. This is with the mbc all the way backed out to the last thread.
I have no idea where to go from here. I was thinking of getting a new o2 housing, but I ported out the stock one pretty good, If I spend a 160 bucks on a new o2 housing and that doesn't work, then I might just take a sledgehammer to this car not realy but you get the idea.
As far as the boost controller hook ups, I have the bottom nipple connected to a tee in the line between the manifold and BOV. The side nipple goes to the wastegate. The nipple on the turbo is capped off, and the bcs has nothing connected to it, no caps or anything
Please help
Thanks
