Turbo setup done- no boost? *WITH PIX NOW*
Ok hooked everything up finally and put a turbo basemap on my integra b18b LS and still not getting any boost read on my boost gauge. Any idea guys? I need to double check for leaks but everything seems fine. Hooked up wastegate to turbo compressor housing. Its a tial 38mm wastegate, used the side port. Helpppppppppp =P

Re: Turbo setup done- no boost?
Listen for the turbo spooling. If you don't hear it... that's your problem.
If you hear AND don't feel it, you have a boost leak.
If you hear it and feel it, your gauge/source is screwed up.
Does your guage read vacuum or does it always say 0?

Re: Turbo setup done- no boost?
