Kym,

Are you experiencing boost cut or not getting enough boost?

See'ya:burnout:

From what I felt, it jolts really hard once boost winds up around 12-13psi at 3000rpm. really wierd. some have described it as boost cut.

SO, i can get the boost, just keeping it without shuddering/jolting is my issue...

Kym,

Your experiencing boost cut, bleeders cause spikes, therefore the AFM sense's too much air passing by and stops the boost. Only real way to fix it is with a EBC.

See'ya:burnout:

Hmmm. Spikes eh?

was talking to RB20lagwagon a while ago and he said increasing the length of the tubing to and from the bleeder valve will help with spiking as the air has to travel further to be bled off. Hence, some kind of buffer zone ??

I'm thinkin I might give that a try.

    • The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.
    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
    • Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen.
