Extremely wrong.

+1

There is no turbo available, that is only slightly bigger than stock as you say (say a 400-450HP turbo) that is ment to be pushed any where near 35psi.

How do you know it is pushing 35psi? Boost gauge or someone just told you this?

its a HKS 3 inch neck (luv the mad induction noise :) ) with custom heat sheild... but getting straight to bumper will be good... will it make alot of difference in power?... any gain is good for me.

Don't do that...next large puddle you will hit will be your last for the motor....keep it high and out of the rain.

Oh...I know why I liked it and choose it...MY avatar that is...could stare at it for hours....lol

i dont know what sb8 is, but i want 10.

i was thinking that to have a stockish turbo power figure on 35 psi, and nothing at 10 psi, he has a tiny tiny turbo that he is spinning the crap out of to get the air flow. i think there would be too much heat for it to make any reliable power if that was true, so it must be tuned to run a bit cooler.

HOWEVER- ive decided that this isnt feasible (?) now. what he has is a full throttle tune. when he is at lower load points eg. 10psi on the 35psi tune its just not fuelled or timed correctly, and is running crap.

still think that it needs to be checked on a dyno. what if there is nothing wrong after all? does it feel quickish on the road or feel like a pintara

i ran my pod in the front bumper for years in brisbane (when we had rain)

with no dramas

only moved the pod back to the engine bay, coz i got sick of replacing them coz they were so dirty

it feels good, quickish like it should running 10 i guess... but on idle it tends to pop and crackle (probably exhaust)... oh and it feels like it has a bit of a flat spot at low revs... i think i need a tune by the sounds of things.

oh ok, did it perform better in front? did it make a louder induction sound in front?

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
