well i hit fuel cut while part throttle driving the other day out of no where.... and i'm still having problems with it creeping up on me

do you hav the radio trim plate? lmk on a price shipped to 58104

thanks matt

price shipped to 58104 on,

-rear brake shoe's for e-brake
-stock vf11 wastegate

thanks, matt

can i use a bike tire pump running to the wastegate? then have a boost guage tee'd off the hose to the wastegate to test if my wastegate is sticing shut?

i bought my 91' legacy ss 5 spd for $2k. and it is very rusty.

but bump for finding one hell of a deal

bump

ok well i put the dp on the other day and well it didn't fix anything.

then i put on my wrx tmic and WOW!!!!

it runs great now, so i'm guessing it just had hella hot intake temps. right?


it pulls harder then it has ever.

i'm running around 10-12lbs now, havn't hit boost cut yet...

my guess is it being tunable is one plus, it is build more heavy duty also.

well what is the price shipped? this stuff isn't free is it. lol

what condition is it?

bump still need this stuff

i helped my buddy rebuild his 13b-rew, and it took about 1 hour and a good handfull of vasiline.....

so far it has held 20lbs from a gt4202.

and to talk alittle about the hot exhaust temps, he has had the manifold and turbo glowing white hot.... after a good highway pull.

also he just saw that he ...

lmk what shipping is to 58104.

thanks

bump

- pass. side strut

lmk what you got...

i used a 1g guage bezel from sls.

i just thought of this.

could a clogged cat cause the exhaust gas to push back agaist the wastegate flapper and cause it to not open? and if exhaust flows the path of least resistence then it would cause it to boost more to compensate for the pressure forcing back? correct?

now this is just a ...

i have done plugs, but not wires, new knock sensor.

now i have noticed that the car runs way better during the daytime. my guess is it is warmer out and it doesn't creep up as much.

would puting my wrx tmic back on help this in anyway? maybe so that when it is at 12 lbs it is safer?

all the time when it is cold, during the day it will run better but not what i think it should be as i still feel the damn hesitation.

but at night i don't even like to get on it, as i think something is wrong and i would hate to blow something up. also i don't think i have ever hit fuel cut.

that ...

ok i have a stock turbo legacy, and all i have doen is a k&n air filter.

now i hooked up my wastegate directly to vacume, bypassing the boost solinoid.

i will see 7 lbs in the lower gears and 10 lbs in the higher gears.

but every once in awhile it will show 12-13ish, and it starts to hesitate ...

just pore in some oil. it may have been sitting awhile.

this happens all the time with turbo's that have been sitting. the thin oil film just goes away

there is a guy that own's endyne energy dynamics, he used to dimple the intake side of heads for hondas, and it made improvment in fuel atomization.

if i could find more info on this i would post it up.

ok this has been going on sence i have gotten the car. it went away for awhile when i put in a new knock sensor.

well now that it is colder it has came back worse then ever.

i have the wastgate hooked directly up to the turbo. i'm bypassing the boost solinoid.

now in the summer i was running 5 ...

ok thanks guys for clearing that all up. i was really just looking for reasurence that it wasn't just me. it was in fact the bpv that was working properly, just not in the correct way.

well after reading it i kinda did. my main question was if the wrx bov/bpv is really a pile of junk or if it only works as a bpv?
