If my new actuator on my new turbo is just blowing open, what would be a good replacement? https://www.maperformance.com/products/forge-adjustable-wastegate-actuator-dsm-fmacecl01?variant=8295151939&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIr_u6-rCG2QIVkqDsCh3ttQ4vEAkYBSABEgLC6vD_BwE would that one work?
Ok so i did a leak test with soapy water and couldn't find bubbles anywhere. Although I can hear a hissing noise from my throttle body, and when I turn the plate by hand it changes in tone, could I be leaking from my shaft seals and i just cant see the bubbles because its leaking out from inside...
I have a t28 turbo, injen intake, evo 9 bov and a grimmspeed mbc. Stock everything else. I found a leak at my boost gauge sensor, i fixed the leak and will retest tomorrow in the morning
Ok so i have a mbc set to about 14 lbs but when i get to about 5500 rpms it tapers to about 9 lbs. I hold about 20 or 22 vacuum when my car is warmed up at idle. I have a little bit of side to side movement on the shaft on my new t28. And a tiny amount of oil residue, is my turbo going bad possibly?
Yeah I was just wondering cause my boost gauge was only reading about 7 or 8 psi on my t28 turbo. I still have the stock boost controller so I should be around 12 psi right? Also what line should I t into, the one going to the fpr? I have a 2g?
I have my boost gauge hooked up to the vacuum port on the throttle body labled with a "p". i get vacuum and boost readings, but are they the correct readings, or is this not a good spot?
Yeah I already have the evo 9 bov and a boost gauge. I wanna get a wide band before I buy a boost controller and up the boost. I cleaned my side mount about a month ago.
Guys I just picked up a t28 for a good price, and was thinking about swapping out my t25. If I swap them out and just run stock boost will I see any difference in power? Also can I bolt on this turbo and run it without a tune on stock boost? Which is 12 psi correct?
i have a 95 talon tsi awd. and thanks for the feedback, ill end up going with the aem gauges then. ill aslo save up a bit more so that i can get the wideband air fuel. i plan to dd this one so im gonna keep it pretty mild, so no turbo upgrades. maaybe a t28, in the distant future. i just want a...
https://www.glowshiftdirect.com/1995-1999-mitsubishi-eclipse-custom-7-color-gauge-package/ok guys so im thinking of getting this before i up the boost on my t 2small. i was gonna get the boost gauge, the oil pressure gauge, and the narrowband air fuel gauge with the 20mm 1.5 thread sandwich...
Ok then, maybe I'll just get some hard pipes and just clean out my side mount and just up the boost that way, and when I'm ready to go with a bigger turbo I'll chance the side mount then. I just want 250 crank horse power long run. I'm sure the awd system will bring the whp well to 200 if not...
Ok guys thank you for all the feedback, I think im gonna get the front mount and a boost controller, and up the boost a few pounds on the t25 and see how that goes. If I start feeling fistey I'll go with a bigger turbo.
It's my dd so I want a very mild build I'm just looking to make around 250ish hp at the crank I'm planning on getting a t28 for the front mount and upping the boost a few pounds, will the ecu handle this or will I need a tune
i plan to upgrade to the t28 i just cant find one in good codition for a reasonable price. will i see a difference with a t28 and a fmic, on stock boost, i read soewhere that different turbos flow differently at the same psi like a t25 flows less than a t28 both at 12psi?
hey guys, im thinking of picking up a little front mount intercooler with some custom piping to fit the t25. its mostly hard pipes with the exception of one flex pipe. its from ebay but its solid and doesnt leak. my question is, if i were to get a mbc and up the boost like 2 psi, would the fmic...
i have tried messing witht the biss while the brown pin was grounded it doesnt help stablize idle, i have to have it back out most of the way to get it to idle where it does. im gonna replace my brake booster, maybe i have a vacuum leake there. i did a boost leak and it held pressure very well...
so i adjusted my tps sensor so i can actually get to 0% took it for a cruise i would go wot and get 99.6% let of the gas and get 2% do it again and i get 4% then 2.7% and then sometimes itll come back to 0%. when my tps is at 0% my car idles between 500 and 700 jumping back and forth, any load...
yeah ive tried grounding it and got the idle to stay between like 650 and 1200 rpms but as soon as i turn the wheel all the way or turn on ac, boom car is off. it started raining like a mother but it just stopped so im gonna go try and pull the ecu and take a look at it. if it checks out, off to...
the cable was holding the plate just slightly open when warm, so i re adjusted it but im still only getting .8 ive done the iac test with it out, it moves in and out when you cycle the key not all to smoothly though. im thinking my ecu may be damaged? if im at idle and i turn on my ac or turn...
ok so i just got my gasket in, im gonna throw it on and boost leak test the car, i noticed last night when i took it for a cruise that the idle only gets really high when the car is warmed up. so i connected my ghetto logger while idleing at 1800 rpms and it showed my tps% at 6.7. i poped the...
ok im just gonna replace the gasket tomorrow, boost leak test it again and then try to set the idle. ill try pinching off the vac line to the booster just at idle to see if the hunting will stop. ill also replace my throttle body with the one i have the fiav blocked off on. ill keep you guys...
i havnt messed with my fast idle valve. i have a old throttle body that i blocked the fiav on by twisting it in clockwise, but its not on the car. when my gasket comes in tomorrow ill switch them out and see if that doesnt change anything. as for the brake booster line, if i pinch that line and...
i didnt find that brown plug, should it be next to the black and blue one? that is all i found. and i got a compressor and tried running 20 psi through my system. only leak i found was a small one at the throttle body gasket, but most of the air was escaping past my plastic stock bov its set to...
i think i found it. it looks different from the above post, but i found a blue connector and a black one right behind the throttle body. im gonna ground the black one and adjust the biss. if that doesnt resolve some issues ill move on the doing a boost leak test with a compressor instead of a...
i was under the impression that you could only adjust the biss correctly with ecm link and a scan tool. what pin should i ground to set the biss screw. the screw has to be adjusted cause i took it all the way out to put the new o ring on it. i just screwed it all the way in and backed it out 2...
my bad ment to put 1300 haha. and i have, ive tried adjusting my biss screw i dont have dsm link so im not to sure if its set properly. ive tested my iac its one of the newer black ones, tested at 42 ohms at the coils. i havnt messed with the idle position switch, where is that? ive read that...
ok guys so my car has a bad idle with no check engine light on. i have replaced coils, wires, plugs, as well as the iac and blocked off my egr. i did a boost leak test with my homemade tester and bike foot pump. i found leaks at the biss screw and injector insulators, so i replaced both and am...
no the line on the wastegate to the solenoid is connected. im talking about the second line that goes from the solenoid up to the intake right after the maf.
hey guys i was looking around my car and i noticed the top vac line on the boost control solinoid was just hanging there, and the nipple on my intake had a vacuum cap on it. should i re connect them or leave the cap on the intake nipple?
so i had a low idle around 200 rpms. I adjusted the idle with the biss and i got a iac from autozone that tested at 40ohms. my check engine light came on and now i idle around 2500 rpms. my check engine light wasnt on before. how do i test the harness that connects to the iac?
i know forsure its something to do with my ignition system. the crackling sounds a lot like electrical spark. it runs fine when moving, just very slight sputter when i let off the gas cruising in low rpms. (going 45 in 5th gear with no throttle) also my car is awd so to get moving from a stop i...
ok so i went to autozone. (I am a manager there) and got some delphi coils and some duralast gold wires i replaced both coils and put the wire on and no dice. my car is still making a crackling noise thats sounds like its coming from my wires. also my car is still idling like crap from 250 to...
hey guys so i have a rough idle is low and it hunts. i noticed the sound of electric cracking and thought maybe some wire were touching. so i looked at it at night and i could see lights coming from the wires in a few different spots, does this mean they are bad? i tested the resistance on them...
ok so i got a brand used throttle body from a parts car, tuns out one of the coils on the iac were fried. so i ordered a new one from auto zone slapped it on and there is no difference in my idle. the check engine light has gone off though. i also noticed when im cruising in low rpms lets say 40...
the cable doesnt seem to have moved plus i was having a idle problem before removing the throttle body. it runs fine under boost no hesitation or misfire at wot
