General Buick Tech / Re: issues at low boost

ok Steve I have been reading a lil, and not sure i quite understand why mine would be doing this only certain throttle, i didnt have this problem with the hot air setup, this cannot be normal for the intercooler setup ?. here is my thinking- the manual boost controller is staying closed until it gets to the desired boost setting so at part throttle it is giving too much boost for the amount of rpm for the engine. if true just using the waste gate actuator as it opens progressively would be the right thing to do

General Buick Tech / issues at low boost

« on: February 28 2012, 12:46:08 PM »

at WOT i have no problems with boost, but just getting on the gas a little and when the boost gets to 8-10 psi it falls out completely and sputters. could this be the manual boost control that is causing this. If so is 22-24 psi to much for the adjustible waste gate to handle and do i need the restrictor y?
