yes sir i said to the dyno guy.. it's like a backwards honda dyno lol

i'm thinking adjusting the wastegate actuator might help the boost falloff issue if i can get it to hold 10 psi that way i should be able to put out much more reasonable numbers.. i expected to hit 280 whp and 340 wtrq.. i was shocked when my first run was 330 wtrq and 240 hp lol boost falling off doesn't help the power tanking

the turbo is capable of 36/min i'm only pushing 29

if it was holding boost for any length of time then tanking (which is what i expected it to do ) then i'd see where your coming from

but





the torque curve directly follows boost lol i mean **** if i took my maf airflow / boost over lay and put it on the dyno graph with the correct height it'd be damn near identical lol


i'm aware of the knock and lack of timing in the very beginning that is being addressed

Yeah. Theres your problem!

So you are using a MBC inline with the stock LNF Internal Wastegate?

yes sir.. you have any suggestions? i was gonna adjust the wastegate rod so that way it holds at 10 psi.. and then bump it up a bit with the MBC ..

I thought I read some where that the stock wastegaste was set to 10psi? But I don't know if that is true.

Did you try running your boost/vacuum line directly to the wastegaste actuator?

Do you have a complete list of parts you purchased to make this swap?

stock wastegate is 7 psi.. which it hit 7 psi and would have like 6 at redline .. thats understandable.. being size of turbo and engine and such

if it went up to 15 psi and had 12 or 10 by redline i'd understnad but back down to 7 psi at redline is a little much.. i want to adjust the actuator rod and run straight off the gate again.. see if that helps if it' does i'll progress from there and hit the dyno again

parts list.. with part numbers? no but i can get one together at some point

Are you using boost signal right off the manifold for your mbc??? I hear that can cause this problem. Currently having same issue with my wifes solstice. Im going to try to run a line by itself today and see if it makes a difference. Im using a super 16g on her setup tho. so not the same turbo but same problem.
