Turbo troubles, hardly boosting - rickye - 05-04-2013 Fitted a k14 to my dturbo today, as the gt15 went All went smoothly, new gasket and all, but it is very slow to boost, like well over 3k in 2nd before its hitting over 12psi It has a mbc fitted, and turbo came off my last engine, which was took out just over a month ago, it boosted 100% when on that engine, and turn'd ok by hand One thing I have noticed is it apears to be drawing a vacum, never seen any of my dturbo do it before Anyone any idea's, I'm thinking something on the intake pipe, maybe its crused before it goes onto the turbo, but tbh I'm stumbed RE: Turbo troubles, hardly boosting - Ruan - 06-04-2013 What pipe have you got on the inlet of the turbo? There's something probably restricting the inlet side. RE: Turbo troubles, hardly boosting - sweeney1987 - 06-04-2013 you plug back in boost compensator? ![]() RE: Turbo troubles, hardly boosting - Tom - 06-04-2013 If your drawing a vacuum something is stopping air getting into the engine, Sounds like something to do with your inlet/air filter deal. Turbo troubles, hardly boosting - rickye - 06-04-2013 I just have the plastic pipe that runs along the back of the engine, no filter on it I do still think its air, cos the turbo is whistling abit on tickover Boost comp pipe is back on, forgot it the first time I took it down the road, have had a chance to get a look at it today yet Cheers for the advice Turbo troubles, hardly boosting - rickye - 07-04-2013 Got her sorted, screw'd the lucas full, runnin 100% now Cheers again for the help lads |
