Well was out "tuning" the dtub and brought her for a spin and its now boostin 2 bar.
Was aiming for 1.4 or that. Didnt even think a lucas woul fuel enough for that pressure. And the gauge is accurate.
It was boostin 1.1 and it didn seem smokey. Screwed the actuated about 3 turns and took the standard exhaus off.
It will probably boost even more...just start acting like a hairdryer and then implode!
Aye sounds mint tho on gear changes.
Wont drive it again until i screw the actuater back.
That sound will result in a really bad sound followed by no boost followed by a 'wanted:k14 turbo' thread

So what boost will the actuater hold. Will it hold 24 psi or will i have to fit a mbc?
I had my k14 at 25psi without a mbc
My k14 hit over 30psi for a whort while once..... Then made a sound like a old whistling kettle, but it did used to hold 28psi fine for over six months
I had my 11mm on my 1.9 for a while as the 9mm was leaking...
Managed to get 32psi out of the k14 with enough fuel but I didnt want to blow the poor bugger up!
Think mine managed a grand total of 7miles on 30+ psi was only testing out my latest pump fiddle and heavily ground lda
Yeah guna try and wastegate it at 24/25 psi with a front mount.
Thanks for the info.
Happy new year
