#186, "I have finally really DRIVEN my car!"


          

Well, if you didn't know, I've had some studdering problems with my car since the turbo. I have always thought that it was not because of the turbo kit, but rather something wrong with my car before the turbo was ever on. Well, today I found out I was right!
Welll, today I swapped out my Mutiny Bored TB with a stick TB. I even used my IAC motor and TPA sensor from MY Bored TB and put them on the stock TB. The cars runs great now! No studdered whatsoever! I have no idea whya bored TB would do this!!!
The reason I never figured out it had something to do with my TB was because I had just gotten the TB right before I purchased my turbo kit. I still am stumped to know why its suddenly working fine now???
I think my EGR valve has crapped out though. I had about 2mm worth of soot un the backside of the TB butterfly. I think my TPS sensor might aslo be screwed up, not sure. I'm going to test them as soon as I can get my hands on an ohmmeter.

Oh, I figured out how I blew my motor up fellas
TO MUCH BOOST!
Be very very careful when adjusting the screw on the deltagate wastegate, don't turn it in too far. I did that this last summer and it smoked my motor, basically by boosting to infinity. I guess there is some point where you can't adjust any more and the spring doesn't open at all and just keeps spooling up!
i found that out tonight whike trying to boost a little higher by screwing in the adjsutment screw. luckily, I kept my eye onmy boost gauge and saw it spike to about 1.5bars (21psi) I immediatly let off and unscred the adjustment screw on the wastegate.
Be careful, keep an eye on it.
This past summer I tightened the screw all the way down right before a street race, just thinking it would max out around 7-7.5psi, well, I'm guessing it didn't, and kept spooling until it blew 2 of my pistons.
I always wondered how I was beating a low 13 sec MR2 I bet I was boosting 20psi + that night !
hehe..
Anyways, be careful, keep your eyes on the gauges!
