If you want to live on the edge...... disconnect the actuators and CAREFULLY drive the car to see if it will get over 10psi. If it does then there is an issue with the boost control side

Good idea ill give that a go and see if I get over 10

What gauge are you using?

autometer boost gauge plumbed into the line going to the map sensor.

 

still haven't tested driving without the wastegates connected as im unsure how to set that up. do I just remove the vacuum line to the actuator and just block it so I have the turbos there without any vacuum hoses going to it?

 

car originally had a boost tap installed where the stock solenoid goes, I removed that and put the solenoid back in expecting to have a bar of boost.

Just unplug and block the 2 lines from the solenoid and see if it spikes above 10psi. If not remove the rag from the intake blocking the intercooler.... like mine was emoji23.png haha

Hey mate I blocked the two lines going to the boost control solenoid and still only got 10psi

 

i noticed neither was really sucking hard at idle when I removed the bolts I use to block it.

 

if I blow in either one it make the idle note change.

 

where to from here? Pretty sure no rags in my intake lol

Either you have a boost leak or the actuators on the turbos aren't fully shutting.

 

I made up some 50mm and 80mm round nylon blocks with a tyre valve in one end, blocked off the intercooler pipes at both ends and Pumped it up to 20psi. You can definitely hear the leaks if you have any.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
