    help setting a waste gate up

    i could get pics but it would be difficult to see, the main thing that is necessary is full boost to the side port and regulated boost to the top. when i do mine i will use boost, i had considered using drive pressure but i didnt want to damage the diaphram in the gate from all the heat.

    help setting a waste gate up

    fwiw you could do the same using drive pressure instead of boost. run full drive psi to side port and regulate d/p on the top port.

    help setting a waste gate up

    the way we do them is: run a boost line to the side port of the wastegate, then at some point in that line cut a tee in. from the tee add some hose put in the regulator, on the other end of the regulator run hose to the top of the wastegate.

    Percent Over Vs LPM

    the flow numbers will also depend on elevation and who's flow bench. so the % over varies quite a bit from bench to bench.

    well... i finally get to

    I only put a max of 3,000 miles on this motor, the air filter was always on. even at the track. i had changed the oil and filter after install, and 2 other times looking for any material in the pan trying to establish a reason for the knock. Guy, i was not in any way saying you were to...

    well... i finally get to

    you sure are quick to blame others when, and i double checked before i would say this but 6, yes 6 pistons where not in the correct bank. all i have really done to it is pull the heads to put my heads on it. it had a knock that was intermitent since the day it started, which makes me wonder...

    well... i finally get to

    so, for an update the rod and main bearings are trashed. the cylinder bores are in way worse shape than my stock block's andway more wear on piston skirts. :rolleyes:

    Thinking about switching teams.

    not after they get bigger turbos, nozzles, etc. but even with a big tune they dont last forever.
