NOT BOOSTING!!!
 

I have a 93 civic hatch si with a d16z6, I just installed a greddy 15g turbo internally waste gated. When I rev it up or drive it around the turbo dosnt spool up no does the bov make any noise. I know this turbo is super loud and the bov i have is loud as hell also ( greddy type s 0, But I dont know what the hell is going on. I need some major help.

check all your chargepipes. It can be a leak!

turbo not spooling?
Check your wastegate

Re:NOT BOOSTING!!!
 

what size down pipe/exhaust are you using? do you have your stock cat in?

read the other post in this forum.

Im using 2.25in mandrel bends for charge pipe and i have a greddy down pipe. i will try checking for leaks, but where should i check? I also would like to know how to adjust the waste gate so it pushes more boost out, maybe its set to low.

Re:NOT BOOSTING!!!
 

If the actuator is working properly then you will see at least 6 to 7 pounds of boost. most come stock actuated at 8 to 10 pounds. check for leaks using soap and water. again all of this is covered in the other post so I am not going to waste my time writting it all over again as my chemisty lab starts in 17 minutes.

Re:NOT BOOSTING!!!
 

stock psi on a greddy turbo should be at 5.5 or 6psi. check for leaks in the piping and check the wastegate to see if its hooked up correclty and/or if the arm hasnt fallen off or something...

i had the same problem on my 14b setup. what to you have for a filter on the intake of your turbo?
