I agree, you are tuned safe(and tuned) Save up some more cash and get another tune and the correct boost settings and let it run

I'm just running off WG for now, until I get my fuel issue solved with new lines.
Hope to give you some company real soon numbers wise Pat.

now correct me if im wrong but if you have a 6psi spring in the wastegate and you want to run say 10psi at the track then wouldnt that open the wastegate early and create lag???

You are wrong....you've been corrected.


The wastegate won't open until you hit ~10psi and it will keep your boost at or near 10psi all the way down the track....if you have your eboost set up correctly.

running off just the wastegate works fine and all, but I noticed GREATLY increased spooling when I added my little homemade MBC. I wont go back to straight WG operation.

Nice numbers but...

Get a manual boost controller.

I know of a couple of people who have had major problems with that damn e-boost.


Good luck

Once I get 10's, Im ditchin the turbo and the kit as a whole, maybe someone on here can use it. My next direction for the car will be for road track racing.

And...oops, nice hijack eh?

Nice numbers... but you have got to get that e-boost set-up right.. contact MIGHTYMOUSE... i know his works wonders now. you can make the car spool up quicker than with a mbc with it as well... he once had his overboost cutting the boost in half like yours is now.

Those are some nice numbers man. My setup is at a VERY conservative 13* at peak TQ and 10* at redline. I hope to get alot more TQ when i re tune. If you have a chance find out what the timing is set at in ya car. it is nearly as important a # as boost. GL

The pressure rating applied to wastegate springs is related to when the gate will open and stop boost from building.

For example, I have a spring that keeps boost from going over 7 psi, but that also means that I can't run any LESS than 7 psi, even with a boost controller. The boost reference going to the wastegate connects to a chamber inside the top of the WG which holds a diaphragm and a spring. The pressure exerts force on the diaphragm, and the spring keeps the valve closed until enough force is exerted on the diapragm, in my case it's 7 psi.

Hope that helped.

OK guys I think Imight of figured out the lag problem. Tell me what you think.

The eboost has a function called gate pressure. Its something that you can set to tell the wastegate when to open kind of. You wanna make it stay shut for as long possible without going over youre boost setting. It makes spool up quicker and stuff. I had mine set to 3psi so do you think once I hit 3psi the wastegate started to bleed alittle boost therefore creating lag, making the turbo work hard as hell to get to 10psi(to only hit my overboost setting ).

Let me know what you think.

Who tuned that?? 13 at tq peak is probably ok, but 10 on the top... WTF?

It should be morel like 13 for 500 before and after tq peak and then ramp up 1 degree very 500 rpms or so.

My table does 11 at tq peak and up to 18 by 6500. Thats all our craptacular 91 octane will let me get away with and be safe in 110+ weather.

But you are running meth right? I can understand his timing being low if he isn't running meth or race gas on the street.


Pat, Pm'ed you buddy...damn that eboost is confusing

K just got a pm back from Mightymouse( he knows the eboost) and he said that the low gate pressure setting would slow my spool up. I feel stupid as hell. All that time on there and I never set the eboost up. I was just worried about blowing my motor up.
