if you say so kiddo. ssauto speaks for its self. replacing that would be a start. if all connections are good on the piping it could only be 2 other things, bov or wg. especially if it was workin fine then all of a sudden "3psi"... im gonna assume its the bov since he said it was still blowing off with no vac source. but either way, it wouldn't hurt to not use ssauto products. you've seen all the horror stories.

yeah, im a fucktard; but you two are using ssauto products lol.

yea you're a fucktard for jumping on the ssauto sucks bandwagon; its true their manifolds are iffy but tons of people have had good luck with their blowoff valves and wastegates. and like i said fucktard there are a thousand things that can go wrong. Why dont you go back to honda-tech and feel special that you wasted money on bling blang name brand parts

Lets see here; you, most likely without even reading the thread; because you either couldn't or were too horny to flame with your "im better cus i spend money" badge you got by being a pay to play ricer; you assumed it was his wg had died because it was an ssauto.
How about next time instead of confiding in your shiney expensive parts you read into a problem and offer acutal help instead of showing us all how special you are because spend money.

your an idiot. i read everything and assumed his wg had crapped out... i spent less on my whole setup then you prolly did on yours. used products are your friend, ssauto is not. cheap but for a reason. the only "new" product i bought was a fuelpump. why? my used 300zxTT fuel pump crapped out on me.

he's using an obx bov and an ssauto wg, no matter what you say to me i bet its one or the other thats leaking. either the diaphragm on the bov is leaking or the spring got soggy and is opening up at 3psi. or the same thing could be happening with his wg.

go back to honda-tech kid, or back to GT4

So I'm running SSauto products on 2 of my cars, does this mean maybe I'm a fucktard?

This problem should be pretty easy to isolate.

1. Take the wastegate off and push the bottom of the valve on the gate. It should be pretty hard to push in. If its really soft take the 6 bolts off the top of the Wastegate and take a look at the spring. Make sure it didnt break or somehow or got weak from the heat (which I highly doubt) If the wastegate looks ok put it back on.

2. Check all the charge pipes, check all the couplers for little rips etc. Especially the ones behind the bumper because they can be hard to see.

3. If you have already removed the wastegate signal line are you still getting 3psi, listen to the turbo and see if it changes sound when the signal line is off (like if the turbo is spooling louder/harder) this will just tell you that the wastegate is working.

4. Your Bov, take it off, again feel how easy it is to push up on the valve, see if it feels weak. It should be pretty tight to hold the boost. If you have dissconnected the BOV signal line and the thing is still blowing off you have a werid problem. Because the valve works off vaccum not boost =) I'd try just blocking it off, maybe throw a chunk of hose on it, and throw a big bolt with a clamp.

The only problems I've heard about the SS auto gates were a few diaphrams ripping. And were only talking about a few here. I've seen maybe 6 or 7 threads on HT about them. Does that mean all of his stuff is ----? I dunno, but I hate when people all jump on a bandwagon. It's well known his manifolds are crap but some of his other products are not that bad, and especially for the price.

Glad u got it figured out man, little leaks underneath or sometimes hard to find unless u get ur hand close by and sometimes thats not always easy. What kind of clamps you got on there? Make sure u tighten em up real good so they dont come off again.

I actually wanted to BUY them from him just for the sole purpose of me testing his products and reviewing them for YOU the members. But he ended up giving me all the ---- for free. So ya, obvioulsy I'm going to use it.

Isnt that what this website is about? using stuff that doesnt cost much but still works? if his products do work, then I will recommend them. I just hate people bashing a product they have never used, and just preach what other people have said about them on other websites. Call it a bandwagon or your "personal opinion" reguardless you have no experience working with his products, so why make the guy in this thread feel like a dumbass for buying SSAuto stuff?
