06SpecC · 06-14-2008, 08:07 PM

I really wish we can get a mod in here to sticky this, this video really has taught me a lot about wastegates and cleared up the whole "boost creep" problem and other internal wastegate deficiency's.

good video

bynddrvn · 06-21-2008, 01:09 PM

Thanks, very good information.

Now that I know enough about turbos and wastegates, that I am just going to pay someone else to figure out all that stuff

It's funny....every post I've seen about how too's on installing a manual boost controller say to leave the top nipple on the EWG open to the atmosphere. If you're using a weaker spring then your target boost, it seems as if one needs (in conjuction with the bled off boost signal going to the bottom nipple of the EWG from the boost controller) a true boost signal going to the top nipple of the EGW. This way, the EWG won't open up too early.

Anyone else get that?
