So I did a boost leak test. I hooked up the compressor to the turbo inlet with 20 psi and there were several leaks on the coupling and I did fix those and the car runs a lot better. However, there is a spot on the bov that is leaking. There are two nipples coming out of it, one of which has a...
Hey guys, I have a 1999 eclipse 4g63 and I’m having an issue where it makes boost easily but barely accelerates. When I hit the gas the boost skyrockets along with the rpm but I’m not going anywhere. By the time I get to third gear I have zero acceleration and at that point I can’t get the boost...
I know it’s not a real boost gauge. Ive seen it where you can make a fitting that clamps on to the tubing just before the turbo and hook up an air compressor to it, I might try that
To expand on the situation, the engine will rev high and make boost but just barely accelerates in first and second gear. By the time I get to third gear I’m at such slow of a speed that the car won’t accelerate at all and won’t rev either.
Hey guys, I have a 1999 eclipse gst. I’ve been having this issue where the car will make plenty of boost (the gauge shows that it does and the blowoff valve will engage easily) but the car barely accelerates. By the time I get to third gear I have zero acceleration. The only time this happened...
