    Compressor surge problem

    So should my BOV be kicking in at lower psi? I’m not sure why the compressor surge is happening then at the low psi range. :/

    Compressor surge problem

    Okay thank you for the insight. I really just don’t have enough knowledge to know the difference lol..It definitely sounds like the BOV, cause it has that chirpy tone, however if I let off throttle at like 2-4 psi, there’s a definite surge sound that doesn’t sound like the BOV. But even if it...

    Compressor surge problem

    Have a Greddy type-s BOV (came with the car) and I’m trying to get it adjusted to where I don’t have compressor surge, otherwise known as the “STUTUTU” sound when you let off boost (I’m sure you all know this). The BOV seems to do its job when I’m hitting max boost (meaning it’s just one solid...

    LOW BOOST!!!...... 97 GST

    also (forgot to mention) I did install a new o-ring on compressor side! Infact I almost forgot to put it on. All seals and retaining clips have been reinstalled and turbo hasn’t given me any problems as far as having trouble spooling up at 2500 rpms in 4th and 5th gear

    LOW BOOST!!!...... 97 GST

    What I mean by wastegate not working, is that the actuator itself seems to fluctuate. Sometimes it opens and then sometimes it won’t open at all which causes high boost which then causes the ECU to hit fuel cut. This only happens From 3rd-5th gear. 1st and second never seem to come close to even...
