the car has been off te road agin for a few weks now. we went to tune it and th firs run after i put th 3.5 inch zorst on it the boost would not hold at all. i hit 25psi at 5000rm when he backed off.

we put it down to the manifold which does not work properly due to the colector design and wastegate position.

the guy that made the manifol tells me it happens from time to time and the only way to fix it is to weld the wastegate into the top of the exhaust housing of the turbo.

have any of your guys ever heard or seen this being done??

to me it seems stupid to be cutting holes into perfectly good turbos to fix a known problem in design of a manifold.

im ot too woried about it i just want to know if this is a comon thing

ps i think there is something wrong with my key board lease excuse the missin leters

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
