dsm problems....
i have a problem...i swapped out the 13g on my talon to a 14b...now when i drive it it idles fine....no problems, no cel's just doesnt boost at all....ive checked all the i/c pipes and everything is fine...its like something is holding it back, i got the turbo from the guy that i bought the car from, no shaft play and the wheel would spin freely by hand? any ideas what it could be?

Re:dsm problems....
check the wastegate flapper
|
Re:dsm problems....
even if the flapper was open it still should boost something right...may gauge, which btw is the stock useless gauge on the dash(for now) goes to 0psi a little above...where as with the 13g it would jump to 14+?
|
Re:dsm problems....
if the flapper is closed it will generate 0 boost... no matter how hard u try. not even barely 1... close the flapper arm and check the wastegate to make sure its holding it closed...
|
Re:dsm problems....
mmm...that doesnt make sense....if the gate was closed then wouldnt it creep like hell?

Re:dsm problems....
yea, i had to read it twice....but the gate is as shut as can be....same problem.,...i changed the o2 sensor as well, but that really has nothign to do with it not boosting
|
Re:dsm problems....
ummm, it runs fine other than that?..not missing or anything? is it leaking exhaust right b4 the turbo?
|
Re:dsm problems....
no runs perfect...slow as piss...no boost...no leaks...just doesnt boost..i think i got myself a crapped out turbo
|
Re:dsm problems....
check to see if the gasket betweeb the compressor housing and the center section is good or is there at all. you'll have to remove the compressor housing.
|
Re:dsm problems....
Does the shaft spin freely?
|
Re:dsm problems....
yea, no play at all
|
Re:dsm problems....
so did u check the WG yet?

Re:dsm problems....
i used a carb spring on my 14b it worked great. and damn dood you got on that noob ;D
|
Re:dsm problems....
Can you guys explain this whole Carb Spring idea?
|
Re:dsm problems....
the spring acts as a wastegate for you... holds it closed so boost can be created but opens depending on the tention when under boost... more tention = less opening = more boost, less tention = opens sooner = less boost...
get it? |
Re:dsm problems....
Sounds like a bad actuator.The factory gauge actually isnt far off from the true boost level(about 1 lb off)Change the actuator or do the carb spring trick and see what happens.
