Helpl Boost Prob

[Rolls]

Wait... Something is wrong then, I think mine will even open gate on high boost in 1st gear! That's 26psi

Will test with some videos tonight and see what I actually get.

probably starts to crack the gate but no way 26psi haha, I'd say 15 ish absolute max.

Shit I forgot to test!

Yeah might not hit that much, really depends on trye grip as well... If it wheel spins your not going to be as much boost, if you launch of limiter with drag slicks I'd imagine it would a lot of boost fast

Will try and remember again tonight haha

Love your videos as well haha

Yes but I was giving an example of how the turbo behaves respective of load. Not wether or not it will stay consistent if it reaches it's boost level. I felt it was a better example then saying you won't hit target boost in neutral (unless maybe your on limiter) as opposed to flat to the floor in third. The hill thing was just an easier comparison of load.

OP: read the manual to see if what I have said in my last post is in there and if it says the reason behind doing that mod. Might be for boost creep rather then your problem I forget. Otherwise I'd try putting stock parts bak on to trial (BOV and boost solenoid mainly) if it starts working then it will show you your problem

Yup sorry, I agree with what your saying just didnt want people to expect different boost levels in different gears with a well setup actuator/boost control system. You are 100% correct its easier to build boost with more load.

Got 1.38bar on the first attempt and 1.43bar on the second... Will upload the video when I have time

Don't know how people are only getting 0.3bar in first with a GT30, something must have been wrong!

[SimonR32]

20psi, in first gear with a GT30 on a RB25?

ok. Now I have seen it all.

Post a video or I call 110% bullshit.

yeah good call......

the only that you be possible is if you had the hand brake on to load it up

I could make a max of 5psi in first, nothing more. WIth a GT30 and 0.63 rear.

OP needs to look at if the wastegate is holding shut. Or put tension on it.

tow a boat up a hill in 1st gear, probably could hit 20psi

Hows the foot in mouth tasting?!?

[wasnt me]

But you didnt make full boost.

But you didnt make full boost.

1.5 bar is my "full boost" at the top of the rev range so it came pretty close... I reckon if I changed a few boost control settings I would get there

Jam the gate shut and you probably will.
