General Buick Tech / When is an external wastegate required?

« on: April 04 2011, 10:27:53 PM »

OK, Thanks. Aside from looking cool, it's a waste of $$$.

Anyone have a DP for sale?

A word to the wise. If you can't find an authentic used THDP...then I highly suggest you buy a 3" DP from RJC. Buy once...not twice...like I did.

maybe in the nines?

You'd be correct Steve. I found a pic of Grumpys car with the hood up that ran the 9. It's got an internally gated DP...and I believe he ran a 67...and prolly up around 30 PSI.

You should be able to control boost easily with an internally gated DP with the PT 51 you have. RJC now sells a larger puck to help control boost with the larger turbos. I've run as high as 24 PSI with my 70 and my RJC internally gated DP...with no boost creep. Norbs and I had to do some wastegate porting to achieve this tho.

Look no further than Julio for an alky kit. Get Eric to burn you a chip...or have him reburn the one you have if you're running one of his...and be completely honest with Eric on your setup...and the maximum PSI you're gonna run...as this is how he sets his 02's. With everything being equal...you should be able to run 24-25 lbs of boost with zero KR with Julios alky kit and Erics chip on their default settings. As Steve says...there's a noticeable kick in the pants moving up from 18-25 PSI.

I'm not feeling this Trailer Park shit. Not one bit.

I now hold you in higher regard

To make a statement like that, I assume the liquor is now calling the shots.

Howcome a bigfoot has never died accidentally (how most of us go) where his remains would likely be found? Asshole creatures if'n ya ask me.

Maybe some Rickyisms will help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jfq3c4Cf1Fs&playnext=1&list=PLBDDC36898BEB9967

There's a post on the other board asking if Bigfoot really exists. I side with Bubbles...and believe they do.

I'll leave, so that way everyone can enjoy themselves. My opinion is meaningless, I am impossible to get along with, and I pretty much hate people anyhow, so little will be missed. Enjoy.

I'll let you know when you've had enuf...and until then...you're stayin'.
