Thread: Another Turbo Build! Questions

Ok, so it appears the album is back to front!

Please don't read it, so cheesy and out of context

If you do read it, yes I hate Bruce Clown!

Hey,

So, now I have boost and the fuel screw is out 1-1/4 turns. I have set the control valve to 15psi, seems to peak at 16 - 17 pound max. Boost comes on from just above idle ( maybe 900RPM ) and is making 15 psi at 15 to 1600rpm, mind you I have no tacho, so???

I am very happy with the current power output and there is no lag, progressive power from take off to max engine speed. I am just going to play with the valving a bit now to see if i can get a bit better boost control whilst cruising.

For the last week or so the I have been driving it with the vanes wide open, sounds great, lots of turbine noise! Now with it working correctly it sounds like it has a potato stuck in the tail pipe I will experiment with moving the actuator stop in?

GT2056v - Works great if you don't like lag, no idea what will happens from here though?

Cheers, Tristan

How much boost are you seeing at 100km/h cruise?

Flat road, 6 to 8 pound.

That's right where it should be.

I guess Isuzu's can get a bit boring once they are sorted....

Look at 0:40 for the best Defender mod ever
