IHI Turbo?
I just picked up an IHI Turbo off of a friend. I dont know what the factory wastegate is set at, it came off of a Ford T-Bird. I plan on putting it on my DOHC ZC. What do you think the wastegate is set at?

Re: IHI Turbo?
Without any other form of boost controller aid, the stock actuator is set to 7-8 psi.

Re: IHI Turbo?
For whatever reason, a few people running twin t-bird IHIs see about 10-11 psi with the stock wastegates-myself included.

Re: IHI Turbo?
How can I turn the boost down to around 6 psi?

Re: IHI Turbo?
AGAIN THAT TURBO IS TOO SMALL FOR YOUR ENGINE ! ! ! YOU WILL NOT MAKE MUCH POWER WITH 8psi AND ESPECIALLY NOT WITH 6psi. GET A BIGGER TURBO ! ! ! IF YOUR BROKE LIKE ME AND DON’T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO USE JUST RUN IT AS IS AT 8psi. UNLESS YOU ARE A ----- GET A NEW WG WITH A SOFTER SPRING SO THAT YOU CAN RUN LOWER BOOST, OR HEAT UP THE SPRING THAT IT CAME WITH WHICH WILL MAKE IT SOFTER BUT NO WAY OF KNOWING HOW MUCH.

DAMN! Turn your ------- caps lock off! And by the way that turbo is good enough for the zc. Im currently running one on my zc with 10 psi on stock internals. It spools up hella quick and dies off right at redline. It just is big enough, definitly good enough for your first homemade kit. I plan on up grading to something bigger soon though.

Re: IHI Turbo?
