Would i have to dodge mod it for running 27psi? Any idea where/who I can get from thats not crap?Take it apart and see if the diaphragm is torn or if it looks like anything is messed up inside , but its probably time to get a 1g BOV, an NRG or something that works.
Thank you, will do. Should I replace the dipstick as well or is that not a big issue?Your diaphragm is shot. Either replace the BOV or repair it. Everything else is expected is normal.
Thanks man I thought it might be something like that. I really need to get a service manual! Anyways, the new problem is that when I went for a drive today, I saw 25 psi on the top of 4th gear so I shut it down because on 91 octane that much boost is no bueno! The MBC is set to the minimum setting, so do I have to buy a new one or can I replace parts inside it. I THINK its a ball and spring type but I'm probably wrong.Or you can rig up a spring system to hold the dipstick down. or by a 1g oem diostick from jnz and call it a day. And the hose you have a drill bit in, in the last pic. That's your crank case vent and is very important to have routed back into the intake tube going into the turbo. This helps pull air from your crank case so it's not building up and blowing seals.
Right, I was saying that it fixed that issue. All I need now is to find a good 1g bov and figure out why the boost is spiking.Well if u fixed the boost leak/bov and left the boost controller the same u'll. Have higher boost now.
Yes, to 25psi. Only leaks were out of the places I explained previously. With the CBV, if this one rips again, I'm going to rebuild it with some silicone I have sitting around and if THAT fails, 1G BOV time!Bro you should have just went 1g bov! And yes finding a softer spring is sometimes the only way to get these kind to work. Also have you done a proper boost leak test yet?
My car makes peak vac of 23 inHgYes try backing the adj screw out abit. Boost doesn't really matter. You want it set up off the vacuum your car makes. I had to change my springs completely to get results i needed with my setup.
Thank you I'll do that then. I'm going to make a new thread for the other issues since they're not related. Thank you for all your time and help in getting this issue resolved.Here's what you do. Take the bov return Line off the bov and plug the hose. Then look at the inside of bov and watch what happens when you adjust it tight and loose. What you want to do is find the spot where the bov just starts to close and leave it there. To tight and you get flutter or to many springs. To loose and you leak and it won't hold your boost. It takes a bit to get right, just keep trying you will find the spot! I got sick of messing with those bov and switched to a hks.
