yeah, what i'm getting at is the solinoid may be stuffed. if it is it wont be bleeding off any air and the wastegate will only be opening to its normal 4-5psi. it may have been stuffed even before you got the car and that why you never got the higher boost level.

ok just did that. i switch it to on and my engine clicks twice. cant open my bonnet cos its too late and my old mans tryna sleep so hell get pissed if i make any noise. lol, ill check it tomorrow but it makes sense 4 it to be stuffed :blink:

thanx

oh and whats the deal with the turbotech controller? or all the boost taps for that matter. do any of you guys get boost creep or spiking with them?

no. the clicking noise means the solinoid is switching. so it is working. it should click once when you ground the cable.

yea i fiddled with the grounding cable while the car was on and its clicking like crazy so if its working why the heck is it only boosting 4psi????? ARG!!! :)

ok ive since installed an r32 actuator and its really good. however it only boosts 8psi so i think the gauge is inacurate. and now the exhaust has popped due to more boost and now it only boosts 5-6. lol.

and to make things worse my cars been impounded for 28 days and green stickered. along with a couple of other tickets that got thrown in the mix so doing anything to my car is sadly on hold for a while :P

    • Started sifting thru my brakes to decide which ones I will run on Clem   Made me think I should just put them all on Silver...for when brake fade just isn't an option   Should be able to bump rotor up from 343x32 to 348x36 off Supra. Not sure if the Supra annulus is right for the Alcons or APs but trying g to find a used Supra\M4 rotor to test fit The Alcons seem to gain 1-2mm clearance which all helps  
    • So car is getting a few mods to the cage and some jacking points welded in Meantime Ol Silver gets a new gearbox and shiny clutch.  Old Box is being set aside for Clem  
    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate
