WHY? WHY? WHY?
IHI RHB5 turbo on d15b7, automatic transmission @ 7-8 psi.
here's the rundown in terms of RPM's: 1000-2000rpm:O vacuum, 0 boost. 2000-3500rpm:jumps from 0 psi to 7 psi 3500-5000(ish):full boost 5000-7000rpm: boost cuts from 7psi to 0psi, then stays like that until the car shifts, causing a drop in acceleration *SHIFT 3500rpm: full boost* last three steps, repeat themselves over I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENS? should i bleed the boost to lower the max psi. or is this the downfall to having a turbo that spins up too fast? |
Re:WHY? WHY? WHY?
so you are thinking that it stops spooling because it spools so easily, which means it'll spool down easily?? i highly doubt it cuz your gases still coming out to the turbo...

Re:WHY? WHY? WHY?
well , to be honest, I have no idea what to think...i know that the boost is supposed to remain at full boost until the car shifts, but it's just not happening.

Re:WHY? WHY? WHY?
i say at 5k rpm, your wastegate opens all the way or something or your guage is wrong or you got leak somewhere.. hard to say, gotta debug it like a C program... one thing at a time...

Re:WHY? WHY? WHY?
my boost gauge is good...the rpm's increase much slower after 5k. there are no leaks cause I have spent many days of testing to ensure that there are no leaks...and there is no way a small leak can allow for full boost then drop to zero.
anyone else had this experience? |
Re:WHY? WHY? WHY?
sounds to me like your blow off valve is opening too early or your wate gate is opening

Re:WHY? WHY? WHY?
how big is your turbo? it sounds like you make be having both a problem with your wastegate and your turbo running out of breath. like the think reaches peak boost and then the blow off dumps the rest out, then it need to spool up again. thats my guess.
