#51800, "finally boostin !!!!"


          

finally got it running, but it doesnt feel that strong. only runnin 5psi but i still thought it would be faster. i havent changed the plugs yet and was wondering what gap would be good for 5 psi. i put a new wastegate on, its a standard internal for t3, it said adjustable 4-8 psi but i have the flapper all the way closed and it opens at 5. thats max, theres now way it can go any higher if i wanted it too. could the wastegate be set up wrong???

gap your plugs between .30-.35. you sure are hard to impress if you arent impressed with the difference between NA and 5psi. its damn near twice as fast, and waaaaay back when i was at 5psi at first, i was amazed! emoji

There is your problem right there. You NEED to know what your fuel pressure is, esp if you dont have any other gauges. IMO, i would never even think about boosting witout these gauges: Air/fuel ratio, Exaust gas temp, and fuel pressure. Go get you some gauges if you dont have any yet. It could be running too rich or too lean, which will def hurt your power output. FTI, i wasnt that impressed with 5 psi either, but it is faster for sure..
