gauges are in

[Alex S]

Well i got the gauges in and hooked up (except for the oil temp) and still have not turned up the pump but flying up a hill foot to the floor I see a max of 6 psi and 850 F on the pyro and the probe is right at the manifold



also where is a good place to put the oil temperature prob

thanks

there is a 1/2 NPT plug at the oil filter housing. This is where my probe is. The only problem with this location is that you are getting reading post oil cooler, so you dont know exactly how hot the oil is getting.

 

[Alex S]

hmmmm ok but at least you know the tep of the oil going to the internals

Unplug your wastegate and plug the line up, and tell me your boost and egt before you turn the pump up, im curious to how your turbo boost compared to how mine did without touching the pump

 

[Alex S]

ah well my pump has never been touched so the fuel has not been turned up


was going to do it today but was to lazy

 

[subway]

nice, and there is that scout again in the backround

those sounds like good numbers, i myself would probubly start tweeking the boost now that you know what you got. that my plan now that i got the injectors in.

dyoung, i did turn my pump up, but before i turned mine up, i was seeing 5 psi max and 1000 degrees. after turning it up 2 flats i got 6 psi max and 1100 degrees. then i pluged my wastegate and got 11 psi max and 1150 max i have seen.

I was hitting 10 psi unpluuged wastegate before i turned mine up, but the more i turn it up the faster the boost comes on, but i have only been able to get about 15psi max, but if i max the pump i can get to 6 psi at 1500 rpm and 10 at 2000 and 15 at 2500, but were im at now i only get 3-4 ay 1500 10ish at 2300 and 13-14 at 2700 and beyond

cool, I was kinda wondering what the flat to egt ratio was
