Am I Only Running 5psi, Cause I Have A Hi/low Switch?

[ryan101]

i installed a boost guage, on low it only goes up to 4-5psi i thought as soon as i added the duel stage it would just b set at 7psi all the time? on hi it fine goes straight to 10psi not a poblem!

from what i had read in the forum the actulaor is set to 5psi untill a certain rpm the goes to 7psi, i must just be using the actulator without the solinoide! so low doesn't go past 5psi?

Unplug the standard solenoid thing, and use all new vaccumm hoses.

you should be able to have whatever 2 presets you want within reason.

if you have setup your dual stage in the following way:

Boost source (nipple on cooler pipe) > boost controller T peice > actuator

then you have done it correctly, and if you are stressing that you have unwound the setting all the way but still doing 7psi minimum, then that is the maximum the tap can open and there is clearly still a restriction somewhere inline.

7psi is fine anyway, just make sure you have installed it properly and live with it.

it is a duel stage control, but low is what ever the factory is which is 5psi ( i don't have the solinoide) so i won't go to 7psi!

and only the hi setting is adjustable which is set around 9-10 and spikes to 11psi!

im not sayen i have a problem, just wondering whether my low setting is correct that is only runs 5psi becouse i don't have the solidnoide?

Its a rb25det in a r32 and when the engine was installed they didn't put in the solinoide (which is kinda a pain) i wouldnt need a boost control i would be happy with 7-8psi after 4500rpm's

And it was installed boost nipple from cooler pipe ----> duel stage---> then actuator

so run 10 psi all the time and dont worry about it

now that youve cleared it up, yes its running right.

you cant change it from that, unless you use a dual stage with an adjustment for both. I have one of those if you want it PM me.
