Re: 1jzgte

Sorry i understand that they have the wastegate to control the boost. I was meaning if there was a problem does it push air back through inlet but they just rely on fuel cut? I thought the 4agze i had years ago had a similar looking bypass valve that opened when above 8psi to push air back through ...

Re: 1jzgte

Sweet cheers! Each intercooler set up ive had have run different piping so would hope its not a boost leak but thats not to say its not leaking elsewhere. (in manifold etc). Also do the air bypass valves regulate the boost on these or they are simply a plumbed in bov? (I havent had a good look at it ...

Re: 4AGE turbo fail

I had a turbo mounted too low once on a 4agze and it smoked the whole town out. Made a log manifold with the turbo high enough to drain properly and problem was solved. if you restrict the oil return it has nowhere to go apart from past the seals. I have run turbos without water plumbed in and makes ...

Re: 1jzgte

Thanks. Nope no fuel cut. I brought a gizzmo electronic boost controller so i might chuck that on and set it to 10psi and see what the gauge reads? Just wanted to make sure everything was all ok before I put the controller on. Thanks for your help as you said, could be the gauge.

1jzgte

Quick question. Non vvti 1jzgte. 3inch exhaust, pod filter, fmic. Runs 8psi. Is this normal? I have heard it should boost creep to 12psi. Had 3 different intercooler set ups in past. All run 8psi.

yes u can put bovs on sc but means u hav to put another tb after the sc, pointless as it releases the compressed air ur sc has just built up, would give u lag as sc has to take time to fill ur intercooler and piping with compressed air agen!
