#3018, "Boost problem"


          

Hey guys I know someone had this problem and it was answered before but I could not find the old post. Ive got the HRC stage II with the FMIC and the boost only goes up to 5 psi. Does anyone remember how to fix this. Thanks.

Dave

It could be one of TWO things:

1) You were issued the wrong wastegate.

2) You havea boost leak somewhere in your I/C piping. (Use leak tester to ascertain location of boost leak...if it's this. There is a post somewhere below about this tester and how to make one)

NOTE: Do not take off stock actuator to ascertain whether it is in fact the wastegate. Doin this will raise your boost no matter what. USE LEAK tester.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing either if you were issued the wrong actuator. Now, you'll have that much more flexibility with a boost controller starting from 5 on up.
