Kando Dynamics Turbo

[dori34]

yes and jez had boost issues as well but that was because of his gate.

BSA had the same gate mod and he didnt have any spool issues and his was plumbed up the same way as well.

im gonna try with a bleed valve or borrow a profec b2 off Jez if he has time, so we can try it out.

It isn't the manifold so far it will hold gate pressure till red line but with abc on it spikes then drops to gate pressure. There is no way that the manifold is stopping power so far.

[GTScotT]

its not necessarily stopping power, its not holding boost.

try a bigger spring in the gate then?

[dori34]

it doesn't spike Blake, it just won't hold

no matter what boost (higher then 1 bar) he puts in it will hold till 5000rpm and drop down to gate pressure.

pretty devo atm, my old setup was faster than this Lol

[GTScotT]

then increase gate pressure

[dori34]

i am thinking of just getting a bigger spring, would this sort it out?

21psi springs. rip out EBC & sell it.

anyone here have bigger wastegate springs i can borrow to trial?

[Bsa]

I know that when I changed my spring it was holding better

[dori34]

what spring was original and what did you change to ?

[Bsa]

I had a 17 psi set up but changed to 10 with a boost controller I would just try a few different springs and aim close to target boost

[dori34]

anyone whos got a tial MVR, are you willing to sell me your wastegate spring?

im after a 0.6bar/8.70psi/Small Blue

[GTScotT]

whos tuning?

and yeah id pop in a 20psi spring for a go

[dori34]

unique automotive

i need a 0.5 or 0.6bar spring to test

after a bit of searching, i dont think the MVR springs work in the older WG44 gate, :\

[GTScotT]

mm. well its nothing to do with them that its dropping boost.. I just wanted to know.

I dont think the issue is in the turbo either, that rear wheel and housing combo has been proven plenty with the T67s and I doubt the 20g will throw it off that much that it caps out that early.

Try get the boost to stay on I guess. Did you try running a higher duty and lower gain? IE slow spool with high target?

My issue was opposite. I had boost creep due to a small 34mm gate.

Try plumbing the boost line into the top of the gate to help hold it shut. 5minute job, other wise come grab some springs and the profec b solenoid and control unit to try

[dori34]

Yeah, my tuner played with the gain, it doesn't make a difference.

thanks mate, getting it back tomorrow morning so will give it a try then. the MVR springs won't work with my gate

[DVS JEZ]

Even take the mvr off my drift car to try if u want

[dori34]

sweet thanks mate, appreciate the help.

will let you all know the update tomorrow when i get it back.

[SimonR32]

Have you considered the gate mod to the manifold might be holding it back? I wonder what would happen if it was plumbed off the rear housing instead with an intact manifold.

And that is some pretty rapid spool. Will be interesting to see the final result. Don't forget Jez has the same turbo and housing.

Yeah I would be looking at the manifold/gate arrangement

[dori34]

Yeah I would be looking at the manifold/gate arrangement

dont think this would be the case Simon, Blake (BSA) had the same manifold setup (but smaller gate) on his car and it wasn't an issue

what spring are you using in your gate at 1.5 bar ?

[Hanaldo]

Has the boost controller been set up properly?? I am only using two 7psi springs in my Comp-gate40, but with the boost controller it holds 20psi dead flat.
