hey,

yesterday i was going to change a turbo gasket.. (didnt happen cuz had to get under car)

anyway, when i put all the stuff back togethor and took it for a test drive the boost just kept going up.. it should stop at 14psi.. but i saw the gauge go a bit over 15... i only had my foot half down and it seemed as if the bost would have kept going up...

what could be the problem??

i have checked all the hoses going from the wastegate actuators, tightened clamps etc.. but its still too much boost.

i didnt really touch anything either, just undid some pipes etc and stoped at the exhaust manifold and put it all back togethor... the ecu was also reset..

help please.. i dont wana hurt my baby by running too much boost

thanks

There must be something missing. Make sure the actuators are operating correctly by blowing compressed air in at the boost controller (drivers side) 10psi should operate the actuators smoothly. Test that first to see if they are working properly.. If not work out where your leak/problem is...

Hope this helps,

one of the pipes going to your wastegate actuators has been either left off or not hooked up correctly. the acuator need to have pressure on the top to force it open. if there's no pressure the boost will keep going up untill the turbine can't pass any more air then the gate will start to open. but by that time you could be running close to 30psi and you may well have f**ked something else...
