hey dude im a moron and i want to do the hack air can and the bcs mod can you break those down in retard terms for me so i can perform them PLEASE!

 

[Mystikal_1788]

and how do you get a better turbo sound without buying a diffrent blow off valve

 

[markGSX]

Since you say your boost went down... you didn't punch out the upper honeycomb, just the lower, right?

 

[leathal-eclipse]

right

 

[Mystikal_1788]

if you just simply remove the silencer from the air can does that give a better turbo sound?

 

[AWDriven]

Are you using the stock boost gauge or an aftermarket to determine boost? If it is the stock gauge, it may have an intake leak after the MAS, but before the turbo.

If you messed up even ONE of the honeycombs in the MAS it can make the car run like sheit. Also, if you removed the silencer it WILL make the turbo louder, but I don't believe it does all that much for boost. You need to make sure you don't have a boost leak of some sort like the guy above this post mentioned. I cleaned my intake and didn't put everything back together correctly. Car ran horribly until I found the boost leak with a home-made device. Also, like the guy above this also mentioned; stock boost guages are damn near worthless once you mod the car, so you will need an aftermarket if you don't currently have one. Not exactly cheap, but definitely worth the money.

thanks for all your help dsmers but i got in the car this morning and it is running fine and yes i have a stock boost gauge buying a auto meter soon. you say the stock is junk but it is 14 pounds now

 

[markGSX]

I guarantee you it's not 14 lbs. The stock one is a piece of crap. If you were going by your stock boost gauge this whole time there probably wasn't anything wrong with your car to begin with. The stock boost gauge is always so far off, it's not even funny.

 

[dave2953]

Ditto!! My stock gauge reads 14 lbs too, but in actuality it's about 10 lbs. Besides, unless you've got a boost controller I'm pretty sure you can't run 14 lbs. on a stock 14b.
