Lockjaw Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 I decided to check spool up with the top port to the WG actuator disconnected, and the results were startling. I have very good spool up now, full boost by about 3000 rpms, with the Stage V turbine wheel, which compares really nicely to the stage III. It hits hard now, and I have found I have another problem, the BOV is leaking. Damn its always something . This turbo is a brute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffp Posted May 5, 2003 Share Posted May 5, 2003 Good, nice to hear you have the turbo working correctly. I was very happy with the way it came on boost, and when you kick it to 20psi and nail it @ 3000 rpms it gets really fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockjaw Posted May 5, 2003 Author Share Posted May 5, 2003 I would like to run it and see how much boost it takes to surpass my last turbo. I am going to try to get it up to the drag strip one of these days, but every time I talk about going it rains. It is strong now though at 15 to 16 psi, and if it is anything like my old one, a few more psi really start to wake things up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
