38r and boost #'s. I know dead horse sorry.

I cranked the wastegate already, but that would have no effect on the o psi at 70 deal only max boost. I have a home made boost kit from pvc connection

towed a double axle horse trailer yesterday, only one horse in it, 65 in tow tune 0-1 psi, egts 800-1000 depending on the terrain. Gotta have a leak somewhere.

With boost that low i would expect you would be running much hotter pre turbo. Does your map sensor agree with your boost gauge?

how would I check that?

Most quality scan tools will do so. You will be looking for MAP or MGP. If you are watching MAP, then you must subtract atmospheric pressure from the reading you are getting. MGP has it already subtracted.

Ok. Gotta go borrow or buy one then.

I'm in Orlando with AE if you need it

I might have to hit you up on that one of these days. I don't get it, Im thinking my cheesy guage might be the problem.

With comparing it to MAP, you would know. That or get creative with some fittings, hook your boost gauge up to your air compressor with it regulated don to 5 lbs. Slowly raise it to whatever the max is on your boost gauge.

Cool. Im chasing a similar problem. Cheesy gauge or did you mean boost gauge?

Yeah, I have glowshifts.. They do not have the best track record for accuracy.

Yeah... My next question was what brand lol

 

[Groomzybanshee]

My glow shifts have always been the exact same as my auto meters

 

[campbellflage]

I hope its not the guage, cause I would like to run a little cooler egt wise.

 

[mandkole]

Ya really need to try a scan gauge. Some guys have complained of issues, but its the more used and valuable part Ive bought. There are too many things to keep track of and I would not have a PSD without one.

 

[campbellflage]

thought I read people are having all kinds of problems with them not reading half of whats advertised

 

[mandkole]

From what Ive seen on this thread, the data you want is definitely on there. It gets more dicey if you want to add the 5V sensors for things like fuel pressure, etc. For me, the point of the gauge is not the data in its exact value, but being able to monitor changes in that data.

OP, just curious where you have your pyro probe at?
