trouble shooting

[WeSS]

After things that have been fixed a problem occurred. So here it is. Installed a boost gauge. Only showed 10 lbs. & then we messed with the stock wastegate. The adjustment did not net any psi gain. The car ran like crap after that. So we just put it back like it was. About to go test drive the T. 2 b continued!

Stock wastegate is not adjustable.

Check the orifice in the wastegate hoses. Make sure it is in the right place (the straight part of the Y going to the compressor housing) and that it is the correct size (0.050"). If the orifice is missing you usually end up with around 12 psi of boost.
